We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Some cops have no sense of humor. Coming back from Indiana today my husband got pulled over for speeding (73 in a 65) and when the officer came to the window I leaned across the seat and said, "Yeah, like you could drive any slower if YOU were tripping on mushrooms?"

He made him get out and do a field sobriety check.

He hasn't talked to me for an hour now....

I wonder how many people tried to dial 867-5309 from that Tommy Tutone song.....
I wonder how it would work nowadays when y' hafta include the area code.....

According to VH1, the number belonged to a band member's ex girlfriend, and so many people called it a lawsuit followed.

I tried to do a revenge song with an ex's email back in the '00s but I couldn't get any good rhymes for "Hotmail dot-com."

When Prince wrote the song 777-9311 for his band The Time, he used the real phone number of the bassist of the band. When the song was released as a single, he and his family were bombarded with phone calls. People were calling day and night. He was forced to change his home phone number. Prince thought it was funny but the bassist was not amused.
Is it October yet?

Flip a coin to be honest. I tend to stay away from CDA for obvious reasons, but you do whatever you want. Personally I use spicy mayo, be it Sriracha mayo or chipotle mayo.
yeah no.

I saw the perfect illusion of a fast-traveling triangular UFO last night, but it was the clouds rapidly moving that for a moment made it look like three bright objects were speeding through the heavens. One of the better optical effects of the sort I'd ever seen, made possible by dark skies, bright celestial bodies, and low, swift cloud banks. Pretty cool thing to see, even after figuring it out.

The press is calling it The U.-S.-A.-I.-D.
Politicians are calling it U.-S. Aid
I keep calling it yoo-sed

What're y'all calling it????
