My tolerance for idiots is extremely low today. I used to have some immunity built up, but obviously, there is a new strain out there.

As I watch this generation try and rewrite our history, one thing I'm sure of ... it will be misspelled and have no punctuation.

Me: Sobbing my heart out, "I can't see you anymore ... I'm not going to let you hurt me again.”
Trainer: "It was one sit-up. ”

Sorry I haven't gotten anything done today. I've been in the Produce Department trying to open this stupid plastic bag.

Turns out that being a “senior" is mostly just googling how to do stuff. 

Do you ever get up in the morning, look in the mirror and think "That can't be accurate." 

I want to be 14 again and ruin my life differently. I have new ideas. 

Teacher: Give me a sentence that includes the words: defense, defeat, and detail.
Student: When a horse jumps over defense, defeat go first and then detail.

God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the world. Then he made the earth round...and laughed and laughed and laughed.

I'm on two diets.I wasn't getting enough food on one.

Apparently RSVPing to a wedding invitation "Maybe next time," isn't the correct response.

I put my scale in the bathroom corner and that's where the little liar will stay until it apologizes. 

Felt uncomfortable driving into the cemetery. The GPS blurted out "You have reached your final destination."

My mind is like an internet browser. At least 19 open tabs,3 of them are frozen and I have no clue where the music is coming from.

Hard to believe I once had a phone attached to a wall, and when it rang, I picked it up without knowing who was calling, and I'm still alive.

I LOVE these!  I am embarrassed to say how many months it took me shopping in the produce section to finally realize that all you have to do to open the damned plastic bags from the roll is to dampen your fingertips on some of the "misted" veggies.  DOH !!

@jack-dodds, I believe the ever-stalwart Popeil has a handy and easy-to-use device that easily opens those pesky bags. Here it is in action.

Mine's on the counter right next to my Vege-Matic.

David... I MUST pass these on.  They're VERY funny (some in a sad way.. ).  Thanks for the post!

I'd pass them on as well. But, I'm a bit occupied with trying to get my Popiel's Easy-To-Use Auto-Bagger into my pocket for a trip to the supermarket.

@david-green, maybe you could get a wagon to trail behind you. That's what I'm thinking. BTW, batteries are not included.

I bring the vegies home sans bags and bag 'em up at home where I don't get that cold water shower from above.

Exactly what I was thinking JK; I would end up being arrested by the market security....with this heavy "bag opener" in my pants pocket....but my pants down around my ankles. 

Being a Paul Popiel product I would assume it also doubles as a fishing rod and a beef pattie stacker.  All for just $29.95...but wait, there's more!

@100ford2003 I love watching men trying first to find the vegetable they are looking for, then sort through to get a good one, then open the damned bag, put the veg in it and put a twist tie on it; all while the sprayer is in operation.  Reminds me of the movie "Gorillas In The Mist."
