Have you had any misfortune which was comical?
We have all seen slapstick comedy where someone gets squirted with catchup or is accidentally hit with a cream pie in the face. Has anything like this happened to you?
If you mean something like going to the bathroom and tucking my dress into the back of my pantyhose and walking around the mall? Noooooo....
That is exactly the type of thing I mean. Glad it didn't happen to you.
actually. It did. hahaaaa. Sarcasm doesn't work well here does it
Tonight actually. I have a BAD habit of going out to our chicken coop, collecting eggs, stuffing them in my coat pocket, and then doing something else and forgetting they are there.... so tonight I had one egg in my pocket when I scooted into an IHOP booth. SQUASH. Raw egg-filled pocket... while out to eat with my boyfriend's coworkers... Try explaining that one away!
Oh, what a mess! That is funny though. Thanks.
One time, MANY years ago, I was returning to the car with my kids, and I actually slipped on a banana peel and fell on my butt, with the contents of my purse scattering about.

I am like your neighbor, I too only thought a banana peel was slippery in the comics. Well you live and learn. Thanks for starting my day off with a giggle.
I guess it served me right for fishing for the keys in my purse while walking, and not watching where I was putting my feet! ;-)

Particularly since Sept. 11, 2001 all citizens have been encouraged to report suspicious actions and activities to the police and/or homeland security. Have you ever reported someone? If so, for what and do you know the outcome?

Can someone explain why or what causes constant misfortune in one's life?I know someone who seems to always have to struggle. Anytime something is about to go right, it goes severely wrong. He does nothing to deserve it and isn't a horrible person, yet still... has to struggle with everything in...

We live in a small apt building and our adjoining neighbor has been driving us up the wall for over two years now. She is to say the least downright evil and crazy. It all started when we submitted complaints of the overwhelming smell of dog piss coming from her balcony. Ever since then she has...
