If a picture is worth a thousand words...

this one must be worth at least the OED.


I mean, what the fuck? He doesn't look like a cat. He looks...French. Chris is officially banned from choosing future pets.

To be fair, he can look rather cute, too. But we all know that's a flimsy disguise. He's evil in fur suit.

Sometimes, I am d-u-m DUM!

I generally consider myself a pretty intelligent person. I don’t always make the smartest choices and I certainly have my dumb moments, but overall, I’m pretty with it, brain-wise. But today, I remembered a conversation I had with my dad a long time ago, and my airheadedness just made me blush and laugh out loud. I was a junior in high school and trying to figure out which colleges to apply to. My dad tried to help me out by sitting me down and talking to me about different career possibilities, hoping to clear up any questions and misconceptions I might’ve had.

He ran over the usual laundry list of “acceptable” careers (manager of the Bunny Ranch was not on the list): doctor, lawyer, accountant, research scientist, marketing/PR, and engineer. At engineer, I stopped him and said, in all seriousness, “You mean, like, a train conductor?”

[Pause]

My poor dad (a mechanical engineer by training) nearly passed out from laughing so hard, though he tried so valiantly not to. I don’t blame him for it. What else are you gonna do when your oldest daughter—the “smart one”—flies her idiot flag so high and proud?
