P's and Q's

Many times i have heard the phrase 'Mind your P's and Q's" and consequently, many times i have wondered what the heck P's and Q's even were. These were a few possible explanations:


Pigs and Quails?
Pennies and Quarters?
Papayas and Quinces? (Imagine a lemon and a pear made a baby. That's what a quince would look like.)
Pies and Quiches?
Pentagons and Quadrilaterals?


But none of them made sense. so finally i decided to get on the good 'ol internet and look it up.

In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts. So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them to mind their own pints and quarts and settle down. And That's where we get the phrase "mind your P's and Q's"

Running in Gym

So, I don't really get how gym teachers expect us to run the whole time they tell us to.


Gym Teacher: "Okay class, 7 minutes!!! Go!"
Class: "UGH!!!"
Gym Teacher: "It's not going to help your cardiovascular fitness if you don't run the whole time!"
One really ditzy girl: "Uhh... What's car-di-ohh-vas-cuu-larr fitness? I don't get it...."


So then everybody starts speedwalking while making large flailing movements with their limbs to make it look like they are running for 7 minutes.


But, if the gym teachers really wanted us to run they should probably imply one of these methods. Cause I know it would actually make me run.

PS: I did not draw that cool dragon.

The Stairs of Evil

It's like two in the morning, you're alone, downstairs all by yourself, and now it's time to leave the security of your blanket and brave the terrors of THE STAIRS OF EVIL. 


You will most likely escape the death that surly awaits in the dark at the bottom of the stairs if you sprint up to the safe haven that awaits you upstairs.


This is a visual diagram of the danger of evil stairs at night:

You can't just amble up the stairs in the dark if you want to escape with your life. No, you have to run like the wind, like you have never run before, like you are running away from a rabid bear on fire trying to attack you. Yeah, that fast.

Because when you are in the danger zone, there's no tellin' what's gonna get ya.

Syrup Lover's Sale

While I was on a wonderful adventure in the supermarket yesterday I saw Hannah Montana juice and this... 

A whole stockpile of 'Pancake Syrup Imitation'.


This brings up a number of points.


#1. We all know it's fake, but did you have to put it in the title?!


#2. Pancake syrup? what if someone wants to eat it with waffles? or Sausage? or Oatmeal? I don't know what people eat syrup with...


#3. Who the heck buys a gallon of syrup? I'm pretty sure nobody loves syrup that much.


#4. I'm pretty sure that fortress of syrup bottles contains enough calories to make the entire population of South Africa overweight.


#5. You can save 60¢ on Pancake Syrup Imitation!!!


If you want to save right now on Pancake Syrup Imitation then head on down to your local Fresh Market (*Cough* Albertsons)!!! Hurry now while supplies last.

Hannah Montana now made with 100% Juice

So by now I have seen Hannah Montana's face on EVERYTHING,(<--- epic use of underlining, caps, bold, highlighter, and italics!) lunchboxes, t-shirts, clocks, lip gloss, you name it. but this Hannah Montana item tops it all...

as you can see from my crappy cell phone photo, this is Hannah Montana's face on juice. yes, juice. i'm sorry, but that just crosses the line! do you see Justin Beiber's face on juice? what about Shakira or Ke$ha? (well Ke$ha doesn't even spell her name with letters so that shouldn't be advertised to children)No,you don't because normal pop stars do not advertise on juice bottles. My goodness.
