I've remembered a small bit of silliness that made me smile a lot .... in the warm water of the estuary in front of the family bach (kiwi for home built holiday shack) me, my 80 yr old mum and my sis-in-law lying in the shallows playing synchronised swimming meets a Busby Berkley Musical Spectacular!
@Dunbar yep thats a laugh, but it's a bugger when you get to watch them drive on the wrong side of the road. I'd love to turn Jaheira loose on them with some really nasty spells.
@kiwidoc Would you mind if I split the misheard quotes part into its own thread? I would kinda like it to have its own thread so I can see where it goes.
@artificial_sunlight You've reeminded me of another small thing that gives me a buzz. Watching squirrels in my garden. There are no squirrels in New Zealand, and even though I've been in the UK for nealry 25 years, it still gives me a kick to watch them.
Doesn't mean you still shouldn't properly cook it on either a grill or boil it. The hotdog itself could be fine but the equipment it touched in the process of being made could have left it contaminated (in Canada there was a large outbreak of Listeria in Maple Leaf products, including hotdogs, about 6 years ago).
Anyways getting back to topic I have a friend who has this shih tzu. Anyways, every time it seems me it goes crazy. Trying to climb up my legs and stuff. Its amusing to say the least.
O_o I had assumed there were squirrels everywhere. One of those every-continent-even-Antarctica pests like mosquitoes of small dogs in celebrity purses. They're EVERYWHERE here, and they eat EVERYTHING.
I have this flash drive that I've probably put through the wash accidentally like 8-10 times (I've had it for probably 7 years). Anyways, just did it again and it looks like that was its end. Still pretty amusing to me that it survived this long.
While I was writing today, I got stuck on this one sentence because I couldn't figure out what word to use. I knew I wanted a particular word, but I couldn't remember what it was. About a half-hour later, I used this mystery word in a different sentence without even thinking, paused, and exclaimed at the table "That's what it was!" My writing friends gave me funny looks at first, but once I explained, they were smiling and laughing with me.
My brain does many odd things that amuse me...for better or worse. ^_^;;

There are no squirrels in South America, nor in Africa, nor in Oceania (that includes both New Zealand and Australia) nor in most parts of Asia.
There's a musician here in Canada named Sexsmith. He's very good too. I once encountered a road in Colorado named "Where Else". Then there was a time years ago where I came across two convenience stores almost right across from each other on the same street. Once was called Wight's, the other was called Wong's. Neither of them exist these days though.

There's a town in Illinois called Normal.
Not too far from me there is a town called Penistone. Always causes a chuckle when we pass through it.
One of my friends lives near Bliss St. in the Bronx (New York City Borough). I used to joke about him "living in Bliss" But apparently, it's not a nice neighborhood.
I do enjoy: 1) Listening to my cat snore when she sleeps (it's this whiny little moan noise that is extremely adorable to hear) 2) Watching fireflies on warm summer nights 3) taking pictures of the pretzel shapes my cat twists herself into when she sleeps

Okay I really love pouring salt on slugs...
Watching my chickens pillaging my garden, my girlfriend doesn't like it, but I can watch for hours.
Guessing who is also Dutch on this forum.

Edit: I'll be damned. Its still alive!
