Matching socks
|

I just realized quite recently that I'm not wearing matching socks today. This bothers me, not because I can't match things in the morning, but because I didn't even know I had navy blue socks. I thought all my socks were black.
So now the question is should I own up to it and throw the other non-matching pair in the laundry, or should I stick it out and wear the other non-matching pair? A dilemma indeed. #lifestyle

Engrish.com is a collection of "humorous English mistakes that appear in Japanese advertising and product design." I found one of these one time.

Marriage DNE kids

DNE is math terminology for Does Not Equal. Actually, it really means Does Not Exist, but that doesn't apply to my statement. Marriage ≠ kids. Or marriage != kids. Nya! [Pushes up taped glasses] [Surrenders lunch money upon request]
My least favorite thing about being married is that everyone assumes that marriage equals kids. I feel quite a bit of pressure concerning this. When you're dating, no one asks, "So are you thinking about kids?" There's still that unwritten taboo that having kids out of wedlock is somehow wrong. But as soon as you're married, that's all anybody talks about. "Any buns in the oven?" No. I just graduated college. I just spent 80% of my life in school. I've had no time to be myself. Now you expect me to care for another human being? A human being that can't control its bowel movements? And I just got married. Can't I have a little time to enjoy being a young married person? With no kids? I understand the argument that kids come from marriage. That makes sense. But give me some time. C'mon. I'll have kids as soon as I grow up. #math
