Random Thoughts

My voice controlled TV changer does not recognize my voice. Keeps asking for repeat. Says, "sorry, I did not get that" on the screen

It's all fine on Friday. Come Sunday, it does not know me.

sigh. Wonder what happened?

Random thought: I know that as a woman, I'm supposed to hate 'Blurred Lines' but there is no song that will get me on the dance floor faster.
As the kids say "That's my jam!"

Started chatting with a nice-looking girl on Facebook then stopped immediately when I realised she doesn't know the difference between 'Lose' and 'Loose,' 'Could of' and 'Could have.'

My Inner Snob has a lot to answer for.

Oh man, yesterday, broad daylight, saw little spotted fawn come right up in the front lawn, making that peep-squeaking noise they make, looking this way and that for mama. Little scamp musta got lost. Pretty soon, though, she saw her kin and high tailed it for the woods.

My home has become a wildlife sanctuary I guess. I should get sum guvmint money checks outta this, der herf heh he. Well, no...I mean, I ain't above eating ALL these critters if I absolutely had to--say, zombie apocalypse or something. Till then, though, they can all crash at my place.

I had a camera that would say to me in very broken Asian : Too dark, use flash.

I still have the camera.

 

[Steffen]

I still have the camera.

I know I'm a horrible mean person for saying this, but the thought of a camera speaking in a setreotyped, accented Asian voice makes me laugh. When the Robot Apocalypse happens and if the bots are still using that voice, I would be the first to die because while everyone else is taking cover I would run up to the robots and point my finger and mock their accents and then they would incinerate me. The End.

I ran into someone else once, who also had this camera. And we both, at the same time looked at each other and said, "too dak, use fash" and laughed like idiots. Of course, no one understood the hilarity.

Keep it. When machines become sentient, you can show the camera to your robot house-keeper and say "Don't worry XCT-15987W, everybody's got a senile old relative that they're ashamed of."

Then run.

BH said he had a dream last night that drones became sentient and decided all humans were they enemy. Maximum Overdrive from the sky

I dreamed about Donald Trump holding Prince hostage in a tower. There was hiding, telescopes were somehow involved, and a daring rescue attempt.

Amazon Prime Drones dive-bombing neighborhood children like giant black wasps. That's funny.

If it was MacGyver doing the rescue, I'm so frikking there!

 

[Nomik]

As are you. Thanks, I'm using that story if there is a next time. I just exited the situation abruptly once I read that and had a much better evening.

 

[Doc Creed]

I have been having weird dreams, too. Some I remember and some only a "feeling" or song. I woke up this morning with Oklahoma Sunday Morning by Glen Campbell in my head. It was vaguely sad, homecoming type dream.

 

[Nomik]

I just listened to the song and it seems to be about existing in the moment by reliving a memory. I don't know much more about the dream you had, but I can tell you that sometimes feel kind of down because I live for moments-and they are becoming few and far between. When they happen, I feel less numb, which is met with a mixture of euphoria and sadness. "Nothing Gold Can Stay" I had a moment like that last night. I was worth it. Your dream is probably some manifestation of an unfilled desire ( like you were craving Cherry Garcia ice cream last night you never had any). That is my guess

People. All of you. Please have a sense of humor. PLEASE. It is so important to be able to laugh things off, laugh at yourself, because "when you laugh, the whole world laughs with you." A smile and self-deprecating poke is so much more charming than being so stiff and insulted all the time.

Don't be a mean laugher, though. That's ugly.

Laugh like no one's watching, when in fact, everyone is watching and thinking, "WTH is so funny?"

Dude, I love stories where you get to be mean to little kids (don't judge me). The scene in The Birds where they're being chased through the town and pecked at: I laugh like Mr Burns every time.

Lol...yeah, that scene in the Birds where the teacher runs off screaming, arms pinwheeling...forgot all about her kids. She's like, peace, I'm out.

 

[Dana Jean]

Yeah. Like that.
