Truisms

This was sent to me by my mom and I think it is really funny so I thought I would post it... with commentary of course.


1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.
*I don'r really have anything worth hiding, my best friend would just think I'm a loser for the amount of time I spend on blogs and fashion websites.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.
*Enough said. This happens to me more often than not.

3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.
*Especially for texting.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?
*Dude seriously. I just crumple mine into a ball.

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?
*Nope.

7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.
*I used to agree with this... but now that I live in LA, I don't. I have no idea where I am the majority of the time. I just memorize the tall buildings by my apartment and use those as reference. HAHA

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the Person died.
*"John Doe was malled by a gorilla."

9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.
*Okay, this one is the most true of them all. However, it's because I don't work out, eat well, or sleep.

10. Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.
*haha not just at work, this is kind of in general for me! :)

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again.
* I don't buy blue ray for this specific reason. I fear the day that DVD's become the new VHS

13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.


14. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this - ever.
*This for me is not true. I normally just wash it with my normal clothes and it gets ruined. HAHA

15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?
*LMAO!! This is actually one of my pet peeves, which everyone says is hypocrytical but I don't care.

16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.
*Dude seriously. Or wearing a cute outfit and not leaving the house.

17. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.
*I actually put them in my phone as "DO NOT ANSWER!"

18. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.
*Never even thought about it.

19. I disagree with Kay Jewellers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.
*LOL

20. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.
*Again, especially in LA. I walk one block in the wrong direction and I'm like "WHERE IS MY PEPPER SPRAY!?"

21. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the heck was going on when I first saw it.
*This actually happens to me with movies I saw a year ago.

22. I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.
*This TOTALLY reminds me of me and Noah. We will literally carry so many bags that we can't open the door... or walk... just so we dont have to go back to the car.

23. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text.
*Huh?

24. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
*More than anyone I know.

25. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said?
*HAHAHA people get mad at me when I do this. I hate mumblers.

26. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!
*I hate that ONE nice person that lets them in. I have road rage.

27. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
*Not if you use them as a napkin.

28. Is it just me or do high school kids get dumber & dumber every year?
*I went to a private school so I never realized this... until I got to FIDM. There are some seriously dumb people out there. "Is Florida a part of California, or are they seperate states?" HAHAHAHAA

29. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
*Omg I literally do this all the time with computer chairs.

30. As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate cyclists.
*Totally. Especially in LA because they have no sense of personal space. "Please don't stop abruptly 2 inches behind me!!"

31. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
*I hate when Noah does this. He will look at his cell phone for the time, then when I ask him what time it is he looks again.

32. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet my ass everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!
*So true.
