I set up my photoblog, called Clicking Away With My Sanity, today. If you like pictures, keep an eye on it and see if it strikes your fancy. I have a bunch more to post; it’s pretty sparse right now.
This guy drove a van that backfired on command. Then he’d take pictures of people reacting. Not nice, sure, but pretty funny.
From the fine people who brought you Napster BAD! comes “Sue All the World”. I giggled so hard my eyes leaked.
I ran across the “Imponderables” site a few days ago. I enjoyed the books, but haven’t had time to read through the site. I did notice a question – “Why do women tend to drop hints rather than ask questions or for favors directly?”.
Well, tell you what. My daugher is three years old and she does this already. “Boy, I sure like jellybeans.” “Noggin is a good TV channel, you know? I sure do like to watch Noggin.” “I loooooooove going to Grandma’s house.” “Bubbles are fun to play with.” “I wonder if there are any bugs outside.”
All are pretty easy to translate except maybe for the last – we have had a horrible mosquito problem and told her she can’t play outside because there are too many bugs.
I’m sure hub and I do plenty of hinting around to get what we want. Who doesn’t, really? Otherwise it would seem that you’re too demanding. By casting subtle hints, it puts another person in the position of “freely” offering something. But kids aren’t worried about being demanding. Obviously. I think it boils down to aping parents’ behavior.
Watch this Virgin Mobile commercial. Quicktime format.
I have a (male) friend who also does the Silence of the Lambs dance when things get boring. Usually in crowded public places.
Also this poor child. Someone, think of the Children!
