hmm...
today was my dads b-day, and as most asians, we dont really get much for each other other than the cake and some cheap presents and a card...
but to us, hey were all in the same freaking family so all we have to do is acknowledge that its the other persons birthday and give em a choice of where to eat, and thats bout it...
neways....
we had a barbecue, but before that...
oh yeah, i went to play bball at bmms at 1 today...
then afterwards went to get a mccaslin book review book, and somthing funny happened at the self-checkout...
i take out the card...
scan it...
then scan the book...
but then it doesnt work...
so i swipe the library card once again, then the same thing happens, the book doesnt get checked in...
u know why?
cuz i scanned the price barcode not the actual library code and then i was like "haha, oops"...LOL
so the i put the library code there, and then (see, the system is automated, and if after like, 5 secs, no book is swiped, u have to swipe ur card again [security reasons, i would imagine]) i put the library bar code there and it says in its large voice thru the quiet library...
"PLEASE READ THE SCREEN" LOL
then i finally do it right...
and after i print out the sheets for the return dates...
theres this guy whos just staring at me all weird and shit...
and then i left the library laughing...
okay, now to the barbecue...
okay...
we have a nice bbq...
then its the end, the marshmallow time...
and when were done that, we decide to be pryos and play with sugar...(cuz sugar burns like crazy, just take a marshmallow, put it in fire, and have fun :).)
my bro can burn the bamboo sticks on fire, but i didnt have sugar(in those little packets) to play with, so i decide as soon as i finish my marshmallow, that id go in and get a packet...
so i eat the great tasting dessert and run in to get the sugar packet...
but i didnt realize thru my excitment that the barier between the porch and the kitchen was THE FREAKING SCREEN DOOR!!!
so i run into the damn screen door and then lay on the porch LMAO...
and that is how ppl came up with the phrase "dont let the door hit u on the way out"...
just like kerry, who also uses this great phrase nowadays...
"were coming, ur goin, and dont let the door hit u on the way out"...
btw, i dont support any party cuz chinese are not very politically active at all...
i mean, come on...
when u watch tv news about anything that has to do with voting...
DO U SEE AND DAMN ASIANS?
NO!
i rest my case...
and btw, if i didnt find any of the stupid things i did funny above...
then these were cases of things where u just had to be there for them to be funny.
