Souvenirs, souvenirs
Jan. 19th, 2015 08:32 amMost mornings I drop Froglet off at her school before driving to mine. On the way there, we listen to the radio - we like the morning program on Kis 92.5, because Roz and Mocha are hilarious (also Damnit Maurie and his fiancé, Damnit Matthew).
They're about the only thing we can handle in the very early morning and trust me, 7:30 is the very early morning for us. We're not morning people. We're also still very French, in some ways.
So sometimes this happens:
Roz: ... and in a few minutes we'll tell you about the Burger joint in Whatever, Florida, where the owner has banned Ke$ha from their restaurant and will ask you to leave if you try and smuggle any inside. Right after this song *plays song*
Froglet *raises eyebrow*: Ke$ha?
rainette: I don't know how you can BAN Ke$ha from a restaurant. I mean, you can choose not to play her music, but Ke$ha is not exactly restaurant music anyways. Also, how do you want to stop people from smuggling Ke$ha's music in? Do you confiscate and check their iPods before you let them in or something?
Froglet: yeah, I don't know. It doesn't make any sense to me, either.
Song *is over*
Roz: ... and now let's talk with the owner of the burger joint that doesn't allow any ketchup* in the place...
rainette and Froglet: ooooooooooooohhhhhh...
(It was ketchup all along, of course - but it's not something we have in our kitchen, so somehow we completely missed that.)
But more often, they talk about a website that made them laugh and I usually check it out afterwards. SO TODAY I THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE:
- Roz' go to site when his daughter is sad: the ultimate fart soundboard. Subtle it is not, but - hey, I am five, I think it's funny.
- This morning's find: a site that will ship your enemy an envelope filled with glitter.
We fucking hate glitter. People call it the herpes of the craft world. What we hate more though are the soulless people who get their jollies off by sending glitter in envelopes.
We've had enough so here's the deal: there's someone in your life right now who you fucking hate. Whether it be your shitty neighbour, a family member or that bitch Amy down the road who thinks it's cool to invite you to High Tea but not provide any weed.
So pay us money, provide an address anywhere in the world & we'll send them so much glitter in an envelope that they'll be finding that shit everywhere for weeks. We'll also include a note telling the person exactly why they're receiving this terrible gift. Hint: the glitter will be mixed in with the note thus increasing maximum spillage.
The owner sounds a bit shady - he's currently trying to sell the site, claiming that he can't follow the 2,000 orders he got within a week. I don't care, I just think this is incredibly creative and funny.
