Rim Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 I went to Lowes tonight to pick up some things for a home project I wanna do this weekend. I check out and I notice the cashier smirk and holding back a laugh. I showered before I went to the store cuz I just finished playing indoor soccer so I knew it wasn't a personal hygiene problem. I started wondering if she somehow knew I was not much of a handyman and would screw up my project. I'll give her that, but how'd she know? Was it from the stuff I was buying (shelves, shelf brackets, and a combo stud finder/laser level)? I get home and I realize my pullover shirt was on backwards - the shirt's tag was on my chest instead of on my back. It's how I eventually discovered it - something was rubbing on my chest. I must've put my shirt on backwards after showering tonight in my rush to get to the store before it closed. At least I wasn't wearing it that way all day. I don't think so, anyway. aka riffing Double Post music: Strip Down http://rimspeed.com http://loadedtheband.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phait Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 There's been a couple times when I've told a cashier to "keep the change" though I had several dollars coming back... Hey remember the rap group Kriss Kross? Yeah, well if they were legitimate today (ha!) you'd be ok with that backwards shirt. I used to dress backwards when I was a kid Not all the time though.

Rim Posted March 19, 2004 Author Share Posted March 19, 2004 Oh yeah, Kriss Kross, I remember them! Kids get can away with stuff like that easier than adults. aka riffing Double Post music: Strip Down http://rimspeed.com http://loadedtheband.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Strat Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 Hey Rim! I work at Lowe's, and saw a woman in there one day with her jogging pants on inside out. I wouldn't let the shirt thing bother you. But, the cashier should have let you in on the joke. BlueStrat a.k.a.

Reitzas Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 I bought a new staple gun last night from Home Depot. I put a 1/2' staple into my palm by mistake. Pretty stupid, huh? Dave www.reitzas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wewus432 Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 You spelled stupid wrong. I often wear my clothes inside out, and backwards as a statement against conventiality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philip OKeefe Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 I can attest to the truth of that! Hey John, Wewus, please check out Songrytr's song on the "Is Your Music Any Good..." thread - I'd like to get your opinion on it. Thx!

Wewus432 Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 That's a cool pop song Phil, gotta a Fighting For Five feel to it. I don't know about that piano part, sounds kind of like an afterthought, that doesn't really add anything to the song. Ditch the piano, bring up the organ, and add a little Les Paul. Just my two cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty stupid, huh? Dave www.reitzas.com Did that myself once. HURT LIKE HELL!!!!! Sad part? I thought it had jammed, and didn't want to leave staples on the floor in this customer's house, so I pulled the trigger two inches from my palm! Quite a jig I danced for the next couple minutes... A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wewus432 Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 One of the stoopidest things I ever saw was when I was a carpenter many years ago. We used a RAM set which is a tool that uses a 22 caliber charge, to fire a cut nail into concrete. This guy Otch was leaning against a treated board with his butt trying to get it to go into place, so he could nail it to the edge of an elevated concrete slab with The Ram set, and shot himself in the ass. BAM! Whoops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip OKeefe Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 That could hurt BAD! I've got one of those - used it in the studio construction. I would NOT want tht to happen to me! A friend of mine used to have a upholstry shop right next door to my office and he once walked me through how to help him and what to do in the event he put a needle through his hand. Fortunately that never happened to him while I was there... but he said he'd done it before. Said it hurt like mad... but I'd imagine it would pale compared to the .22 driven nail in the butt.

I actually give the cashier credit for not busting out laughing.
