It's Murder!!! (Fly Murder)

I killed a fly with a banana.  I'm not saying I'm more badass than Mr. Miyagi, I'm just saying that in all of the Karate Kid movies I've never seen him kill a fly with produce...

Best Ever?

As a society we consistently use words and phrases inappropriately, not as then were intended.  I'm not talking about the typical Too, To, Two; They're, There, Their catastrophe.  I'm referring to the overwhelmingly unrealistic, "Best Ever" comments that are made on the daily.

"This is the best soup ever!"

Really?  Have you had ALL of the soup?  You're telling me you've tried all of the soup, ever, and this is the best.  Even if that was the case, what gives you the right to be the final judge and jury on the quality of soup? Did you major in Culinary Arts in college with a concentration in Soup?

"This is the best day ever!"

Oh is that right?  I didn't realize you were over 2000 years old (which essentially makes you a vampire) and have been witness to all of the days ever and have been keeping detailed notes based on a rating system that you conceived which rates each day based on a comprehensive scoring system.  Best day ever, huh?  What about Christmas?  That's right, Jesus' birthday.  I bet that was a pretty great day.  I've read stories about it.  What about Super Bowl I?  First Super Bowl ever.  I guarantee that was an exciting day.  But no, you're claiming that today of all of the days is the best day ever.  You're going to go ahead and lay claim to that extraordinarily bold analysis.  Best day ever?  Why, because you went to Six Flags, got a giant bag of kettle corn bigger than a ten year old, and won a giant stuffed panda?  Yeah, you must be right.  Best day ever.

Wait Until You Hear the WHOLE Story

It's odd how our acceptance of people's actions can be so influenced by our understanding of the circumstances. If you're a guy and you tell someone that the night before you were naked in a room with ten other naked guys, you'll be judged based on the belief that you were undoubtedly involved in an all dude orgy. But if you tell that person that you were at the gym changing before working out, all of a sudden everything is ok.
