I Once Met An Idiot This <---------------> Big

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

I’ve never thought myself an overly smart person but in comparison to some of the things people have said to me, I’m honestly not sure how some people remember to breath.

While on vacation last week with two buddies, I mentioned that the hotel marquee next to us had a message that said “WELCOME CAN/AM CHEERLEADERS” to which he asked what “CAN/AM” meant? I mean really, as long at says CHEERLEADERS right?

And just to confirm my own membership in the idiot club, I had a hockey game scheduled for a Sat. morning and had to go into work after. I packed a bag with clothes, work boots, and shower supplies. The work boots were on one side of the bag and when I picked up the bag it was off balance. I looked around and found a book I was reading and tossed it in the other side of the bag. I picked up the bag and it was still off, so I added the book i had just finished which balanced the bag nicely. So i carried my now 20lb. bag down to the car, into the rink, and was just about done showering when I thought about moving one work boot to each end of the bag.

Oh, dear. Mr. Syntax deserted us again, did he? Reading this is like driving my brain over a huge pothole.

I’m sorry to sound snide, but I consider myself to be of at least average intelligence, and I don’t know what CAN/AM is either. Is it anything like PanAm?

Is it like TCP/IP ?

The Alaskan Highway used to be called “The CanAm Highway.” Does that bring anything to mind?

5

It means Canadian/ American! Honestly, people… <low whistle>… wow.

I know this isn’t the pit, but am I the only one who sees the irony in this post?

:smiley: I missed that the first time. Sheesh, people in glass houses …

Or, to answer in the spirit of the thread:

duhhhhhh, You said this post was made of irony, but when I tried to pick it up with my magnet, it wouldn’t do nuthin’. Then I tried to pick up my computer with my magnet, an’ now it won’t turn back on.
