Random Weird Theories I Have

We all have those theories that are hard to prove, or that might sound crazy to some. But nonetheless, you're certain they're true. For example, Immortalkitten is certain that her cat knows when she's thinking of using her drawing tablet. Being insanely jealous of the silly square Kitten likes to pet, the cat will get in the way, sitting on her tablet while she's trying to use it... or settling in Kitten's lap before she even makes a move to get her drawing tablet.

Anyway, here are some interesting or weird theories of mine.

Signs You've Been Playing Too Much Sims

There are thousands upon thousands of great games out there. Among those are the Sims games. I mean, there's so many things you can do in these games. Of course, sometimes we find ourselves playing Sims so much that we begin to live and breathe Sims. It consumes our thoughts, until the day we stumble out of bed one morning, poke the shower, and wonder why it's taking so long for the pie menu to pop up. Anyway, here are some signs that you may be playing too much Sims.

Death By Hiccups

My brother came home from work one day, and we asked how his day was. "Well," he replied, "other than almost dying today, it was fine."

Apparently, at some point during his shift, he got a case of the hiccups. He does online shopping orders, so he was going around the store while hiccupping over and over. He tried various methods of getting rid of his hiccups, but they persisted.

Finally, he decided to try drinking some water. Problem was, right as he went to swallow, he hiccupped. Since he was in the grocery section, he was trying desperately not to cough and spray water everywhere. So there he stood, making strangled choking noises while he attempted to swallow.

A spectacle like that is bound to attract the attention of everyone around, right? "No. Earlier I hiccupped loudly, and someone asked me if I was all right. But me dying in the middle of produce? No one batted an eye."

Christian Camp Bus

Came into work one day, and was going through the usual routine. Making sure the bathrooms and dining area were stocked and clean, taking customers' orders, that sort of thing. It was summer, so it wasn't very busy like it is on school days.

At one point, I noticed one of the trash cans seemed full. Shoved the trash down, just to make sure, but it didn't make much difference. All right, time to take this out. I pulled the bag out of the trash can, twisted the top and tied it. Around that time, people started coming in. Great. It was fairly slow, but the instant I started taking the trash out, that's when customers start showing up. I'll have to serve them here in a moment...

Cashier Pet Peeves

After working as a cashier, you start to notice common themes, some of which eventually take the form of pet peeves. The vague descriptions or wrong names so you can't figure out what they're trying to order, or the gust of wind through the drive-thru window that makes a five-dollar bill try to fly away from you.
