Feverishly trying to prove myself smarter than a fifth grader on my DS last night, I came upon this question:
I realize it’s blurry, that is part of the charm of taking pictures in a hurry with a camera phone. Phone camera. Anyway, it reads:
WHAT IN NOT A TYPICAL SYMPTOM OF A BROKEN BONE?
IN! No, not IS, IN! Ha ha! That means that not only am I smarter than a fifth grader, I am also smarter than the person that wrote this game and every person after that tested it. And Jeff Foxworthy, for sure.
(The answer they were looking for-which I got wrong-was DIZZINESS-but I swear that if I broke a bone I’d experience dizziness.)
This also means I never have to play that stupid game again.
Tremendous.
Aha! Hilarious. I love finding spelling mistakes. It makes me feel superior.
ME TOO Laura! And trust me, living with Shannon? It’s a RARE fucking treat to feel superior about anything!
I bet! I was just saying to Adam that I would love to watch some of Shannon’s life happen, if only it were on video. Because he seems so cool and calm in the face of infuriating and frustrating situations. If things play out as they read when he writes them, then he always gets the best of self-righteous asses by being calm and more knowledgeable and articulate than most.
You hit the nail on the head there, Laura, he really is good at being the eye of the storm. Luckily he has me to flap my arms around like a Muppet, scream, cry and stomp around losing my temper at all the injustices of the world. He knows that keeping cool and collected will win the race.
I know it too, but I wonder when I’ll be able to apply it.
You and me both sister.
