The Other Side Effects

.

A side effect of a side effect must be a “besides effect”.

.

note: there are B-side effects on albums, but not on CDs … I don’t know why!

double note: new side effects to having sex are being born daily!

triple note: recreational sex and procreational sex are the same thing in theory, … some people just take things a little too personally … or want a little person … or something like that.

quadruple note: most decisions are dicey at the casino or on board game or a yahtzee place …. or at vegetable slicing venues.

quintuple note: rolling dice don’t have side effects … it’s just when they stop and lay there that things get probably good or bad.

what I’m listening to now #45: the end to “The Shawshank Redemption“.

Lazy Snowman

 

I thought a “planking” snowman might be funny
… and I had nothing else to do today.

But …

later in the day, Mr. Pettit  came by and found this a bit disturbing for some reason: maybe he doesn’t like orange.

So I fixed it up,

… after he left.

Sundays are pretty productive around here.

 

note: “People know that nothing rhymes with orange
          probably from the day that they are bornge“

double note: people are doing weird things out there to entertain themselves.

Today #338

Today was violently mellow … or disturbingly peaceful.

 

 

Name Calling

 

Some people are just born Lucky

… while other people are just born Michael, Carlos, Raj, Anna-Marie, Yuko, Nadia, …

It just depends on who the parents are.

It’s genetic.

 

note: children named Lucky must have to overcome a lot of odds growing up.

.

Today #296

Today I realized that I’m quite good at wasting time.
… and playing Zombie Highway on the i-phone.

Short Ordering

 

I hate when people tell me what to do!
I will do what I want!
I don’t care what you say!
Screw you Simon Says!

 

note: I don’t want to put my right foot in either.

.

Today #211

I killed about a million zombies at work today: it was pretty quiet.

Rock, Paper, Scissors

 

Do you remember that kid that used to try and bullshit everyone by using “Dynamite” during a “Rock, Paper, Scissors” game?

I wonder what ever happened to him.

I think he’s being ousted by a mob right now.

 

note: I can be topical sometimes, but I’m usually bottomical.

double note: that first note sounds kind of kinky … I wish there was a different word for not being topical. Stupid made up words!!!

.

Today #137

I calmventilated through most of today.

Dominoes

 

Earthquake proof dominoes aren’t much fun.

 

note: dominoes are just boring dice.

double note: dominoes seem so negative; unlike yesterday.

.

Today #15

Today was like having no toilet paper: it required improvisation.

I’ll Meet You At Tennish

 

Somone’s in violation of their tennis court order.

 

note: being loved in tennis isn’t a good thing.

double note: tennis is a faulty game.

triple note: tennis players must eat a lot of Pringles.

quadruple note: I lose interest in people drawing a line to make a point on principle all the time.

quintuple note: some people have to irrationalize everything!

.

If I Were In A “Die Hard 3” Reality

People who didn’t dump their fries into the top of the Big Mac container would be classified as bad guys.

Spot Quiz

.

Completed “Connect the Dots” pictures are pretty pointless.

 

note: I draw the line at connecting the dots.

double note: with enough “connect the dots” type days I will hopefully figure out the bigger picture.

triple note: this is an environmentally friendly activity. Hey! pencils don’t grow on trees!

quadruple note: if you connect the dot in the picture, you will find you need a period at the end of that sentence. hee hee!

Trivial Bets #2

Bart Simpson is most likely named “Bart” after the lead character in the movie “The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T” written by Dr. Seuss. (true)

more trivia: Sideshow Bob definitely gets his lastname Terwilliger from the movie’s villain.

When The Music Stops

 

A game of “musical bench” seems to last forever.

 

note:

infinity: science
eternity: religion
forever: love songs

double note: something that takes forever to do never really gets done.

.

notes to myself #155

You never win at musical chairs. Either you aren’t aggressive enough, or you think it’s a silly game and don’t want to play.

A Square With Dots

 

I bet board game people were very happy when dice were invented.

… and people who weren’t good at Chess … or Checkers/Draughts … or The Royal Game of Ur … or Go … or Mah Jongg … or that spinner thing in The Game of Life.

 

note: “It looks like a great game … but how are people going to get these playing pieces around the board?”

double note: like so many other ones, this entry started out very complex before I just went back to the basics … basically … and got basic … or simple … or started thinking about dice and how cool they are.

triple note:       Yahtzee … dice not included.

quadruple note: I originally was thinking about the cool horsey move in Chess … if you really must know.
That move should really be used more in martial arts.

quintuple note: sometimes it’s just as important to remember where we learn things as what we actually learn.

.

notes to myself #121

Our father only plays games with us until we win … then he teaches us another one. I’m not sure if he just lets us win or not. We will never know.
We are solid at Chess, Cribbage, and Checkers: be grateful.
