I don't understand

...why brides have a bridal shower if they only have a honeymoon registry?  It is the most ridiculous thing ever.  Do I show up to the bridal shower empty handed since I made a donation to the honeymoon or do I buy her some random gift that I *think* she may like so she has something to open? 

...how my wedding is 78 days away.  Really?  When did that happen?

...how Fishy can drink so many margaritas yet Margy is always full.  Optimist?

...why traffic is so light on Friday mornings BUT in the afternoon, when I'd like to get home and start the weekend, there is a shitton of traffic.  Why?  Where were all you effers in the morning?

...why KK consulted the message board about a lost tampon (lol).  Anyhoo I stop reading after I saw the word "digging" (ouch) so I am curious, did you find it? I really hope you did & you're ok.

    I don't understand how some things work on my computer and other things don't.

  • I can't for the life of me begin to understand why ON EARTH someone would share with a message board that they lost a tampon. Like seriously. I didn't need to know that, I don't care how much TMI warnings were involved. Fuuck. Figure it out on your own.

    I dislike watermelon.  It has the weirdest texture to me.  You bite air, and water, and some stringy fruit.  I just can't do it.

    This show drives my brother and my dad batty. I get it, you want to save the whales, but that in no way qualifies you to navigate international waters, or run a boat in any way. Honestly, I think they're doing more harm than good and they're not going to stop until someone, either one of them, or someone off one of the Japanese vessels, dies.

    I just like how they continuously ram their boat into other, bigger boats; drop Kodiaks in the water that no one knows how to drive; run out of gas, water, engine oil; then complain that they are in the middle of nowhere. I hate it, but I can't stop watching it. More to see what ridiculous thing they will come up with next, not because I believe they are actually saving whales.
