There was this weird thing I saw...

Just struck me as kind've "strange" behaviour...
I saw this person the today, and they were standing outside by their trashcan. They went inside, and bought out a peice of random garbage, and then threw it away, then back inside, and threw another one away....they repeated the process more than ten times. Crazy, right?
I mean, all I could think was "Wouldn't it just be easier to have just thrown the whole bag of trash out in one go?"

As I was pondering this, I saw an equally strange sight on tv....not sure what the show was called, but in it, there was a person standing by their kitchen sink. The faucet was broken, and the drain seemed to be clogged. The water just kept filling it, and filling it...and the weirdest thing...the person started bailing out the water, glass by glass, and drinking it - even though there was a perfectly good bottle of caustic soda and a plunger right next to where they were standing...Reminded me of the thing I saw earlier with the garbage.

I guess the simplest solutions just don't occur to some people...go figure.
Anyone else ever see this kind've slightly illogical behaviour, yknow...anywhere else?

You should have stopped the car and smacked the crap out of that bird, and also verbally abused it for being an idiot. Then you could have taken the food and driven it miles away and thrown it into the sewer or something.

I saw a big red-headed vulture sitting on a fence fluffing its feathers. Technically, Los Angeles is a desert, but in the populated areas, vultures just do not exist and this is actually the first one I ever saw. I think it was visiting its relatives in Arizona and stopped for a rest or a snack or something. This thing looked totally out of place--a big, shaggy, oily, dirty bird with a bright red head, long neck. This was near the local golf course.

i think i have a minor version of it. i feel like it need to touch things sometimes. not sure why, just need to touch it....and i got to touch it for an equal amount of time with each hand....if its unequal i need to equal it out with the other hand....hard to explain. doesnt happen to me that often any more, but its wierd when it does, and i can control it...sometimes i just dont wanna.

Looking at this thread, and the responses (which are interesting, sure) I can't help but to "chop" the air above my head and say "swoooooshhh!"...

Not those things specifically, no...but I do have a thing for symmetry.

No...I got it as soon as I read it last night...

Perhaps the person who's 'taking out the garbage' has his hands tied, but you were too far away to see that...There could be some reason that he can only take out a certain amount at a time...


Perhaps his garbage can was not his OWN and other people share it...Perhaps his garbage can is owned by someone like Horror, and he has to follow some lame ass guidelines before he can take some actions...Perhaps he has to have what he's throwing out inspected by OTHERS before it can be determined that nothing else can be done with it...
