Randomness

Over the past few weeks, I've been taking notice of something that I'm not proud of.  I guess when reading it, it sounds a lot more creeper then if I were to have a discussion in person about it.  What I'm talking about is how people hold their utensils while eating food.  Weird right?  The way I use my fork and knife is what I always thought was the norm, fork in the right hand (dominate hand) and knife in the left.  The more I creepily watch people eating, the more I notice that there really isn't a norm for using your utensils. 

I've seen people who cut with their dominate hand and fork it with their less dominate hand.  I've seen people cut with their dominate hand and then do a switch-a-roo so that the fork is now in the dominate hand and the knife moves to the other.  Very rarely do I notice someone who has the same utensil use procedure as myself.  I remember Bingman, Wieland and myself were out to eat and this was the first time I brought it up.  I was so convinced that Bingman was weird for cutting with his dominate hand and doing the switch-a-roo with the fork and Wieland for cutting with his dominate and forking with his less dominate.  When I brought it to the forefront of our dinner conversation, I was looked at like the weirdo; A. for watching people eat and B. for thinking that there was a norm.  In conclusion, I should be looked at as the minority in my utensil using exploration.

P.S. Im blogging right now while Simone and I watch Super High Me, starring Doug Benson which is a very good flick, and he cuts with his dominate hand and forks it with his less dominate.  Now we are graced by Mr. Murphy and he too follows the same templet as Simone.  Boo these men!!! BOOOOO!!!

EARTH.    I don't know how better to start this next topic.  I think we take for granted the knowledge that us normal folk know about what truly is the position of the Earth in reference to the universe.  My main question is what happens if the world turns upside?  If you hold up a tennis ball up, where is the ground?  When looking at the tennis ball, are all the continents sideways on the ball so that if the world was turned upside it would virtually have no effect?(If thats case then if we dig to the center of the earth then we would technically get to China!!)  And if thats the case of the case, is it gravity that holds us in place so that we don't fall down sideways?  So many question that might or might not have an answer, but that I am too lazy to research for you.

Im getting really sick and tired of watching or listening to commercials on tv or the radio to places that aren't near my current location.  First off we have Papa John's.  The only time I have ever had Papa John's was when I went to a college friends house in Massachusetts.  I've seen more commercials for this pizza joint then I care to remember but can't name one location close to us.  Im not saying there isn't one around, Im just saying they don't tell me where the hell they're hiding.  Second commercial Im annoyed with is Sonic.  This is a bitter sweet relationship because I am a huge fan of their commercials.  If there was any Sonic's closer to me, I am sure that I would go there based mainly on their commercials.  

My next topic is something that I feel very strongly about.  There are few things in the world I hate more then writing in cursive.  There really is no benefit for the average Joe Schmo because he probably hates writing in script as well.  Which brings me to my next point, why the hell do they have two names for the same style of writing: cursive and script?  Teachers don't say "Ok students, grab your number 2 pencils and write out the alphabet in lower case letters or smaller case letters, what ever you kids want to call it today" or "Spell out your name in upper case letters and if you write them incorrectly, you will have to re-do them in taller-then-lower case letters".  It's just dumb.  Connecting letters is way overrated.  It doesn't save time because you always end up getting stuck on trying to remember how to connect letters like "K, F & Z".
