Stuff like that (train derailment) always makes me feel better about my day.

I was going to make a Portlandia reference but I'm not sure if everyone has seen the episode I'm going to reference.

So I'm at work today and one of the park workers comes in on his day off to mail a letter to his mom for mother's day. How sweet right. WEll he rode his bike in, AND he of course has the "bike outfit" with the full full package in front that is like so in your face that it is almost offensive. AND I"M LIKE WTF

And so I feel like the bookstore ladies on Portlandia who say "Don't point in here its like a penis"

Okay, I can't find the episode.
Also I really need to talk about people who wear weather specific and event specific clothing. Next post.

So I'm a teen, and I'm visiting my friend at her house for the first time and she is a little rich tho both of her parents are teachers, so that is strange maybe, but her dad is also military so maybe thats it. But that isn't the point!
The point is-we were going on a walk to the creek and its sprinkling a little, but not alot and I am wearing the one jacket that I own. The one that I wear when it is raining, sprinkling, sunny but windy, cold, snowing whatever, it is the one jacket I own. So we are about to walk out the door and her parents mention the weather and she says "I'm fine" and they mention she should wear something different and she asks "Should I get my gortex?" like now her clothing has names I have never ever even heard of. "Fucking gortex, what is that? I have no idea" I think in my head, although probably not the fucking word at that age, but anyway I am just standing there as politely as I can because now I imagine that this girl has several different rain jackets for several different kinds of rain, and they care whether she gets wet or not and here I am just standing there wondering if they would let me borrow a jacket so I don't get rained on, but they don't.
And we go on our walk, and everything is fine.

The guy who wears the approrpriate fishing shirt to go fishing or hiking pants and shirt, but they are never worn at any other time and nothing else can be worn to do these activities either.
