Take Your Pineapple to Class Day

[demonqueen666]

When I went to get lunch at Marketplace today and was waiting for my sandwich, I decided on a total whim to use up another meal swipe to buy some groceries

om nom nom pineapple. ^_^

This entry made me smile. I think I shall dream about a college student with a pineapple on her desk reciting Spanish. Yes, I think I'll go ahead and order that now. Subconscious?

Subconscious: Ehhh... no can do. I've got you scheduled for a nightmare about news coverage of a mall besieged by a gunman who turns out to be a burly, legless BDSM fetishist.
Me: But... I watched that last night.
Subconscious: Oh, you're too good for re-runs now?
Me: I-- I just wanted a Spanish-speaking pineapple. :(

I know I haven't commented on your journal in a while, but I have been lurking assiduously, yes I have.

Your conversations with your subconscious never fail to amuse me.

Thom and I had a similar how to experience with a mango last night. :)

[demonqueen666]

Yes, but did you have to go online to look up how to cut it? I personally found that the most amusing part of the endeavor. I spent the whole afternoon carrying around a pineapple I technically didn't even know how to use.

We did indeed. Apparently mangoes havve a very tough and icky pit. There's 4 or 5 ways to cut up a mango, one involves a fork, another a spoon, another a knife, and another a combination of them. We chose the knife only method; it looked the easiest. You have to peel it, then cut of the ends, then make delicate slices around the entire core axis in order to not get nastiness in your fruity pieces. Also, our mango wasn't quite ripe. They apparently should be almost red when you eat them, whereas ours had only a red patch and the rest was yellowy-green.

The internet: teaching you how to cut up your exotic fruits since Al Gore invented it!

Aw, that's adorably awkward. If I saw a person carrying around a pineapple, I do believe I would give them strange looks and stay awkwardly silent.

I just finished "World War Z", by the same person who did the Zombie Survival Guide. It's pretty awesome.

It wasn't so much the walking around part as the sitting in class part. Like, if you're going to keep glancing at me in befuddlement like that, you should seriously just ask.
