Elvis is alive and he shops at Joann's craft store....I saw him....
I swear I saw Gary Glitter at the train station. At first I was a little unnerved, but thankfully I'm 19. |

I went into a shop today and they had the 'usual' sign up- "if you look under 18 we will need proof of age to sell you paints, solvents, knives, etc etc etc".... except on this sign they had also added 'rocket engines'...

Persons intending to travel by open carriage should select a seat with their backs to the engine, by which means they will avoid the ashes emitted therefrom, that in travelling generally, but particularly through the tunnels, prove a great annoyance; the carriage farthest from the engine will in consequence be found the most desirable.

Model rockets engines? It's not a law but it's pretty common to age-restrict those in hobby shops around here. Mainly to protect the shop owner from lawsuits if some dumb kid blows his hand off with one. |

It was a model shop admittedly, but they didn't have any rockets, except of the glue-it-together-put-it-on-a-shelf variety...

Noisy devil who moved in below me a few months ago, regularly wandering home at about 6AM talking loud with some acquaintance, then he noisily departs while my 'neighbour' kicks the steel gate while yelling 'whoo Massachusetts! Be good, people!' Or some such. I suspect the two of them are metal thieves, but amateur detective work would involve strange hours. I cannot believe the local cops don't know about them. But if he is a metal thief, the level of intelligence involved in announcing his arrival home seems about par for the course.
Or maybe he's been caught and fined a few groats and released so many times he's got cocky. All I know for sure is, he's a noisy antisocial son of a sailor.

This morning I saw a little person (I believe it's the PC word) on a custom motorcycle. I think it was an old Honda with the seat lowered to where the oil tank should be. The handle bars were bent down. He was going towards me, so I couldn't take a good look. I think it's wonderfull that a little person can experiance the freedom of riding, but my first reaction was WTF.

My maxillofacial surgeon, despite having the entire medical file from 4 different dentist confirming that I have a gag reflex and that I'm prone to plaque, saying to me: "Your dental hygiene sucks. You need to get a proper brush and brush at least twice a day. Also I am not buying the fact that your [latest] dentist refused to remove your wisdom teeth because of your gag reflex. Because if you'd had a gag reflex you couldn't even eat."
I was seriously at the point of bursting into tears by the time I was on the street.
I have a really bad gag reflex, my doctor just *poking* the inside of my #6 makes me go *uggggh*. And I brush at least 3 times a day. I don't believe I've ever felt so horrible. >.>

Erm... "If you had a gag reflex you couldn't even eat"... WTF? Everyone has one, it's just some people's is a little more... sensitive? Is that the right word?
Anyway, I hate dentists... All of mine have seemed to be not particularly nice people to begin with, so I share your pain... but that's awful of them.

Dear doctor Your people skills really suck. You need to take a course on communication and take anger management classes twice a week. Also I am not buying the excuse that you had a bad day, you are supposed to be a professional and as such this kind of deliberate petty cruelty and deliberate insult of a patient is inexcusable. Because if you had a hypocratic oath you wouldn't be able to keep the "do no harm" part. Because if you'd had a gag reflex you couldn't even eat."
I am trained to do swallowing assessments, this statement is nonsense. |

Ha! After typing the above post I turned on Hercule Poirot and one character handed another a ticket to the horticultural show with WTF stamped across it.

Is this the David Suchet episodes of Poirot? Another WTF moment - the case of the murders at the Girls School: he solves the mystery of the jewel by revealing that the 'indian princess' is a 20+yo imposter. How? While looking up her skirt during the interviews he remarks that her knees don't have the smoothness of a 15yo schoolgirl... Filthy foreigners  |

I seem to remember in the book there's another indicator, which is that the "princess" doesn't go in the swimming pool (in Agatha Christie novels this either means someone is older or they're pregnant). There's also an incident with a schoolgirl lifting up her skirt to show Poirot where she's hidden the jewels  |
