Living Room

Welcome to the Living Room

Tea? Coffee? Soda?

Sit back and relax in that comfy La-Z-Boy, and talk for awhile.

The living room is the place for casual chats. And by 'chats', I mean, you reading my weblog and nodding silently to yourself, occasionally laughing so hard that pee comes out of your nose, after which you can leave a comment. [Note: User experience may vary. This Weblog may also result in tears, joy, sadness, empathy, and/or extreme boredom.]

Enjoy the conversation!

Totally Unspiritual Post of the Week, #4

The best part of having a website is that suddenly, all of your friends figure out that they can send you funny or meaningful things to post on it. The worst part of having a website, of course, is that when you get an average of 25,679 unique visitors per day (that number might be slightly exaggerated by a multiple of 1,000), there is a building pressure to be extremely witty, intellectual and spiritual, all while carefully balancing one's body weight between buttcheeks so that neither can quite fall asleep in the time that it takes sitting in front of a computer to keep up a site.

I actually have an abundance of things to share for this week's "totally unspiritual" post, although I'm still only going to share one. I am almost at the point where I don't have to space them out, because I'm receiving enough every week now that I could probably put up a few at a time. So by all means, send in things that you find entertaining or meaningful, and we'll find a home for them here. Assuming you don't send things that are "funny" to you, but "stupid" to me. (Isn't it amazing that the world's most significant leap in communications has simultaneously allowed millions of people to disseminate random humor to the masses? I mean, what kept people entertained 10 years ago?)

So here it is: a customer complaint letter to Continental Airlines. Classic hilarity ensues:














Personally, I believe God gave us the internet precisely because it would be impractical share this letter via fax.

Happy 4th of July to everyone - I hope all the RFL readers have a safe, fun time relaxing with friends and family. And remember, only you can prevent forest fires, but any dumb kid down the street can shoot a roman candle into your cornea. I don't know why you need to remember that, mind you, but you never know when a nugget of wisdom like that might come in handy.
