That's Amazing
Random Joke
Word
Finish with a Song
Stood in the Post Office queue waiting to send a parcel. The man behind me is standing too close, his warm breath pollutes my space. He talks to himself in whispers under his breath. I wonder if he is possessed.
A small young foreign looking gentleman deposits £1,700 in cash into his account. I assume he must be some Columbian drug lord. Slightly disappointed when I hear he runs the corner shop.
A man in the line wears a large red coat. He lightens up the conga, I wonder if he's delivering a cheque for the Postcode Lottery to the Post Office.... irony.
I hand my parcel through a slit in the aquarium of postal transactions.
I notice that small microphones are built into the tellers booth, I wonder if they do karaoke?
***
I sit in a coffee shop that 'Cost A' Lot.
People queue for over priced hot water poured over fruit.
Staff in brown uniforms look like soldiers of sobriety
Eastern European men on the minimum wage. They swapped communism for capitalism served with coffee.
Machines hiss and spurt sexual steampunk coffee from chrome.
I read the pretentious names of hot drinks, Mocha, Choca, Willy Wonka...
A woman with a clipboard waits impatiently, I wonder if she's from weights and measures.
Man in a cheap tight suit flirts with two young women. His hair brushed forward to hide his baldspot, receding youth.
A medical professional dressed in scrubs checks his 'fit bit' then his phone. Synced he orders coffee. I wonder if this is an experiment to check his heart rate before and after caffeine....Then I hope he gets a discount.
***
Two children play and babble in a foreign language. Blissfully unaware of their surroundings, both cultural and medical.
In the waiting room of the Hospital there is a TV showing Daytime DIY. This is the place where they reconstruct people.
Green PVC chairs, blue walls, calming colour therapy.
An elderly gentleman suited and booted for his appointment strolls around the waiting room with his cane. Impatient, for him time is finite.
Cheap functional wheelchair for basic transportation moves a man in tubes. His clothes hang off him as if he's made of metal hangers. He's nearly not here any-more.
In 1972, CBC TV held a contest to complete the sentence "as Canadian as _________". The winning entry was "as Canadian as possible under the circumstances".
The UK's first bus powered entirely by human waste has left passengers in a dilemma today. When leaving the bus. Should the fold down seats be left down or up.
Word of the day: HORRIPILATION - the feeling of your hair standing on end.
