Murphey's Law...Or something like it <.< Edited version, of course ^_~


On the way to work, I went to the post office to mail off college forms and other stuffs. It was pouring rain outside (I forgot my umbrella at work again >_< )
I said out loud, to no one in particular "Murphey's Law says it rains hard when your umbrella isn't with you"

The postmaster replied with "Murphey's Law states the worst will happen at the most worst oppertune moment."

I walk outside, trip into a street pond, and rip my pants.

<.<

Didn't see that one coming, did you?

...I sure didn't. >.>

I drive back home, quickly change pants (Yes, I am running late to work -.- ) and rush to work.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




This one lady was looking for loose change in her purse, to finish paying off her purchases. She just suddenly dumped all the contents of her purse on the counter. These little packages slid towards me. In an attempt to help her, I picked up a few. Something about them made me look closer, and I realized they were condoms. Just the stupid catch phrases on them tipped me off.

X_+

I dropped them back on the counter, and let her get them herself -.-

I didn't drop them because I thought they were used, I dropped them because I was suprised. I thought they were pieces of brightly wrapped candies. I mean, it is a bit of a shock, to pick up something you thought was one thing, and to be startled into finding it was something completely different. Some of the little brightly colored package things had little smiley faces on them =\

Fooled me for a bit >.>


The "yuck >_<" was in reference to some of the phrases on the wee little packages, by the way.

<.<;;;;


Hmm...that incident made me remember about how I first "learned" about those things <.<


I learned by accident, really. In eighth grade woodshop class, this one girl filled one up with water, and was running around with it, asking people if they knew what it was. Everyone that saw it burst out laughing, and she would giggle and scoot off to the next person. I saw it, and I couldn't believe no one knew what it was. I was like "Jeesh, people, open your eyes! When she came over to me, I said "Duh, it's a water balloon!"


Everyone went completely silent. Then they started roaring with laughter.

I still didn't understand what was so freaking funny about a silly water balloon. -.-

Then one of my friends pitied me, and told me what it was.

0.ô

Then they sighed, and explained to me what they were used for.

*blink* 0.O

Quite snickering, I already know I am sheltered >:|


I didn't find not one teensy ounce of humor in that incident then....

Funny how everyone else did =P

<.<
