Questionable

Some more details on the answers I had to my questions yesterday.

  • When does the week start? Sunday or Monday
I think I always considered Sunday the first day of the week because I was done partying for the week and it was time to hit refresh. In college, I liked to get after it on Friday and Saturday but I knew I had to put the tiger back in the cage on Sundays because classes were on Mondays. Plus, look at the calendar like Margaret said. 
  • Is it OK to pee in the shower?
I thought this was absolutely disgusting until I watched a movie called "Courage Under Fire" and Matt Damon's character explained that he peed on his feet to get rid of athlete's foot. Well, I had a horrendous case of it in college from living in a fraternity so I tried it. I don't remember it working but that is what broke the seal on that taboo subject. I am not implying that this is something I do on a regular but I just don't find it that disgusting anymore. 
  • Is it OK to put your dog poop bag in someone else's garbage can when you are walking your dog? 
I feel this question needed a little more clarity from me. I am not the neighborhood poop bag bandit and I am not activating ninja mode and sneaking into their yard to drop it off. I feel awful leaving it in an empty container because, on a hot summer day, that bag of poop will marinate in that garbage can and destroy a person's nasal cavities once they open it.  I will only put a poop bag in someone else's garbage can if it is out on the street for garbage day and the trash hasn't been picked up yet. 
  • You can't time travel, but your phone has the internet from 5 years in the future. What do you search for first? 
I gave a pretty lame answer because I was in a hurry and had to get back to work but I really liked Ed's response about making a perfect March Madness bracket. Bathwater had good ideas as well about the lottery numbers and stock prices. And I will pretend that I didn't read what Deedles had to say about Nic Cage. Blasphemy, my friend.

Happy Friday, thanks for stopping by and I will talk to you soon.


I will persevere.
I will keep moving forward.
I will be the stream.

    1. Will I now say canoe like volcano? Probably not, but I hadn't seen that one before.

      1. I think I will not either but I do like thinking it is the most dangerous of the canoes.

    2. Oh, you poor, dumb, white guy! You misunderstood my answer. I wasn't saying "who's Nic Cage" now. It was five years in the future when I'm reasonably sure I'll be suffering from dementia. I am a moderate fan of the man. I loved Con Air, National Treasure and especially Birdie. I was expecting someone to say "Why Nic Cage" per Guardians of the Galaxy. No blasphemy intended. Enjoy your weekend, Pumpkin.

      1. The most sincerest of apologies dear Deedles. I have definitely lived up to my name. I totally misunderstood your answer and I can only beg for your forgiveness.

    3. I have totally hid from people at the grocery store. And yes, the water must be steaming before I get in. I can’t even wash my face at the sink unless the water is hot.

      1. I have ran as fast as I could in the other direction when I saw people I knew in the store, Bijoux. I have also hid in clothes racks. I have issues.

    4. Another fan of hot water. We're still working on getting my apartment water up to snuff.

    5. A meat Twinkie! I love that. I have a secret affection for corn dogs and much prefer them to hamburgers. I remember when I tried a French calendar (the first day of their week is Monday); I kept trying to show up a day early for appointments after realizing that I judge the day by its position and not by its name. I had to go back to the Sunday starting American calendar. I also recall a Belgian exchange student telling me that we shouldn't call it a weekend because look, Saturday and Sunday aren't at the end of the week. Friday and Saturday are! The logic was inescapable.

      1. A fair corn dog can be pretty awesome and, you are right, the logic is inescapable, Margaret.

    6. "Is it OK to pee in the shower?"
      Not according to a urologist. Peeing in the shower will make you want to pee every time you hear running water.

      The canoe joke? We must have seen it at the same time. It's going to be in Saturday Jokes tomorrow.

      And now I cannot unsay canoes.

    8. "Meat Twinkies" are something that always appealed to be visually but after taking that first bite, I almost always regret the purchase. Fortunately at this stage in my life, I don't see them out and about in cooked state so I'm never tempted.

    10. Vol-canoes -- very clever! I have gone out of my way to avoid perfectly nice people just because I can't handle talking to anyone just then. I'm glad I'm not the only one.

    11. And I want to say how glad I am when you do your month-long blogging challenge and also how glad I am that this is the month. I've just spent a pleasant hour catching up on what I missed. Thanks for checking up on me - it reminded me to come visit, as I lost all my bookmarks when my computer died.

    12. I think I have peed in the shower maybe twice in my life and that is when I was camping and it was convenient because the showers were far from the toilets! I think it's pretty gross. Worse I have heard of people having BM's in the shower though!
