Roommates

>> 18 March 2009


Even with the clearest of labeling, people make mistakes. Here is my jello; it was labeled for one obvious purpose. My roommate on the other hand, didn't catch the obvious and I found it like this--weapon of choice, still dangling over the edge. I'm not alone in my labeling problems at least, for instance, "The war on terror." We all know the source of terrorist attacks was not Iraq. 

Moral: Labels are not a good way of expressing intentions. 

We all know those "pre-med" kids become high school teachers and Guidance Counselors do nothing of the sort. Similarly, we also now know that the label of, "MINE," doesn't means anything about the intended purpose of jello. Safe labeling- and beware-this may apply to all foods, wars, and  professions in the future.

How I don't miss the days of roommates... have you ever heard of the comedian Brian Regan? He has a funny stand up on claming things when he was little in his household. Hillarious.

I would be interested in a post describing what happened when you followed Dan's advice.

I would actually do Dan's advice, not just label it that way.

Or do that thing that turns people's urine blue.

Sabatoge your own food and make your roommates ill when they steal it; I like that idea. This picture is hillarious.
