    Two high school girls in a jeep laughing at me

    Posted on Tuesday 20 May 2008 by Greg @ 6:11 am
    Filed under: Rants

    There I was yesterday walking back and forth in front of Starbucks while blabbing away on my cellphone when I saw them, two high school girls in a parked jeep pointing and laughing at me. At first I thought they could be mocking someone else. But I looked around and there was nobody to mock but me. Even when our eyes met they continued to point and laugh.

    It didn’t bother me much. I had gotten used to being laughed at by high school girls…in high school. I just went inside and continued my phone call.

    After the day was done I finally realized why those girls were laughing at me. I had my cool Quicksilver shorts on inside out. These are the kinds of shorts that look very inside out when they are inside out. Tags galore, the back side stitching for pockets hanging everywhere should have been two glaring cues to my “can’t dress myself” dilemma. I don’t know how many people I encountered yesterday, but only two had the courage to point and mock and laugh out loud at the over forty guy who was wearing surfer hip clothes inside out.

    Maybe I’ll start a trend.

      • I wore my pants backwards once in middle school, however even though it was an accident it was actually the trend at the time.

      • As strange as it sounds, that fashion statement has been around my neck of woods for a little while. Except…it’s being done with jeans and sweat pants. Nice move on your part though. :)

      • though I have never done that. I am sure I could tell you many stories in which I did or looked odd. Be thankful you never have to wear pantyhose and worry about your skirt getting tucked in. THis happened when I was in elementary and still wearing tights so a real long time ago. Just think I heaven we wont have to worry about fashion, just being with him will be all that is on our minds.
        God bless ya

      • Random Christian Joke for the day.—-

        -ONE DAY A 6 YEAR OLD WAS SITTING IN A CLASSROOM. THE TEACHER WAS GOING TO EXPLAIN EVOLUTION TO THE CHILDREN. THE TEACHER ASKED A LITTLE BOY:

        TEACHER: TOMMY DO YOU SEE THE TREE OUTSIDE?
        TOMMY: YES.
        TEACHER: TOMMY, DO YOU SEE THE GRASS OUTSIDE?
        TOMMY: YES.
        TEACHER: GO OUTSIDE AND LOOK UP AND SEE IF YOU CAN SEE THE SKY.
        TOMMY: OKAY. (HE RETURNED A FEW MINUTES LATER) YES, I SAW THE SKY.
        TEACHER: DID YOU SEE GOD?
        TOMMY: NO.
        TEACHER: THAT’S MY POINT. WE CAN’T SEE GOD BECAUSE HE ISN’T THERE. HE JUST DOESN’T EXIST.

        A LITTLE GIRL SPOKE UP AND WANTED TO ASK THE BOY SOME QUESTIONS.
        THE TEACHER AGREED AND THE LITTLE GIRL ASKED THE BOY:

        LITTLE GIRL: TOMMY, DO YOU SEE THE TREE OUTSIDE?
        TOMMY: YES
        LITTLE GIRL: TOMMY DO YOU SEE THE GRASS OUTSIDE?
        TOMMY: YESSSSSS!
        LITTLE GIRL: DID YOU SEE THE SKY?
        TOMMY: YESSSSSS!
        LITTLE GIRL: TOMMY, DO YOU SEE THE TEACHER?
        TOMMY: YES.
        LITTLE GIRL: DO YOU SEE HER BRAIN?
        TOMMY: NO.
        LITTLE GIRL: THEN ACCORDING TO WHAT WE WERE TAUGHT TODAY IN SCHOOL, SHE MUST NOT HAVE ONE!

        BURN!

      • When you mentioned Starbucks reminds me of my Small Group – Senior High Girls – we meet at Starbucks frequently. We meet at a different coffee shop around town every week. One of the favorite places to meet is Bad Ass Coffee – ironically next to the local Christian Bookstore. So we go there and have our Small Group meeting. My girls always ask great questions and a patron there was obviously listening. One of the girls decided to give them the Venti Jesus book we got at Dare2Share. Gotta love em they have all nine read it and have given their copies away, some of them have given away three copies. It is like their signature – coffee talk and the “coffee book” as they call it! So I keep them in stock to give away! Thanks for the story bravery takes many forms! – Jan
