In my ongoing effort to not do laundry, I decided to peruse the photos I have snapped on my phone over the past few months. Here are a few of my favorite gems.
Enjoy!
A couple of weeks ago, I ordered a Coke and was pleasantly surprised to see Santa in the 100 degree weather. Nothing like a little Christmas in May, right? I was just glad it says “Holiday 2009” and not “Holiday 1999.” My favorite “food past its prime” moments are when the grocery stores tape together two boxes of expensive food (i.e. cinnamon toast crunch) with packing tape and sell them at a discount. Judging by the date on these deals, I am guess the cinnamon toast crunch is a little lacking in the crunch department. Still, it’s charming, right?
This next one is from when we went snorkeling recently and were on a boat.
Can somebody please tell me what is going on? Either men’s rooms are not at all what I imagine them to be like architecturally, or this guy is totally peeking in on the lady.
Now, this next one I have been meaning to share for quite a while.
Let’s chat about this, shall we? The CD case just has that vibe like it has been through something catastrophic. Maybe it is the fact that it looks like the plastic was smeared while it was still molten, or maybe it was the saran wrap packaging. Speaking of smeary plastic, remember “DeLux Scrabble”… if not, it’s worth checking out here.
Here’s another good one…
Way to use an appropriate font, budding graffiti artist. (I think “Hatebreed” is a band name for an American metal band, but since I live under a rock, I’m not entirely sure). Either way, it looks really girlie, and I think that is pretty hysterical.
Kleenex for men??? Seriously!? What does that even mean?
Lucky for us, the Kleenex website has a timeline. Apparently, in 1956, “Kimberly-Clark launched Kleenex® For Men tissues, with the claim that they “stay strong when wet.” Kleenex® For Men tissues have been the number-one facial tissue brand in the UK for the past 50 years and are still going strong!” Weird. Who knew?
Also, what is “Cow Jam?” Anyone? Whatever it is, it can’t be good. Cow+Jam? Jam from a cow? I’ll stop there. Sounds gross no matter what it might be.
I know this has been on the blog before, but it is one of my favorite pictures of all time. Ancient cut stone walls, meet hastily painted plywood shack. I LOVE THIS. Clever disguise, but not quite there. Haha.
Fret not, future visitors, not all the meat is like this. Sometimes the suspended animals look like they are wearing cotton t-shirts. I kid you not. But seriously, the grocery stores refrigerate. Fret not!
There’s a roof dog. Hi, roof dog.
And there is one of the “friendly” neighborhood dogs. I think that one is Brownie… or maybe that’s Old Timer. I can’t keep them straight! Don’t worry, I would never touch one of these neighborhood hounds even though most of them look pretty nice.
Oh, Egypt, there is just so much to love!
ohmygoodness! you had my laughing hysterically through the whole post. good thing i’m at home and not at a public library.
the roof dog? the tissues for men? i can’t handle it.
And Egypt says, “Oh,Emily, you know you love me.”
Hi Emily,
It’s Saturday morning and I’m here catching up on your blog. I admit I had to google HateBreed and you were right…they are a music group. http://www.hatebreed.com/
