Funny things “normal“ people say/do

[[Buddie]]

I think going through what we are going through makes you resilient to the most trivial things. (Our silver lining is not sweating the small stuff) So I thought I’d start this thread not to insult but to have a giggle at the little things normal people think are so huge.

Here are a few peaches I’ve heard lately....

-I’ve got really bad insomnia too. I wake up at 5am every morning. Me- what time do u go to sleep? - around 10. Me- oh so ur sleeping 6-7 hrs a night? - yes but the early morning insomnia is so debilitating (wtf) me- insert massive eye roll  You poor thing 

- overheard a girl talking about how anxious she was posting a photo on instagram and not getting any comments (honey, u don’t know what anxiety is)

- mindful minutes on the radio where the announcer was saying she was deeply depressed at not being able to get a coffee at her local due to covid restrictions and how she copes without said coffee. For the love of god 

Heard any gems lately?

Share with ur friends!

I'm digging this thread. I can't wait to read the replies. But, I'll be the first.

So, someone visited me about a month ago saying how they're tired of this covid stuff because they're so bored at home. I wanted to say so badly " are you trying to make bored to death a real thing?"  How about you go right ahead to as many parties and nightclubs as you want. You think you're bored now, just wait until you're in the hospital with covid. ( not that I wish this to happen).

Haha 😂 exactly! Usually in the pre covid world we couldn’t wait to get home from work/school. Now we’re complaining about being at home. I must say my house has never been so clean 

So today I saw girls on the beach taking photos of each other’s bums in thong bikinis (obviously to post on social media) yes... Thanku kardashians Now when I take my kids to the beach all we see are bums. Bums as far as the eye can see.

That's pathetic! And a disgrace! Selfie obsessed.
My neighbors are real strict with her kids playing with others because of covid. I called her to ask for play date with my daughter. Here's the conversation.
Me: hi girlie. We want to know if the girls can play today outside?
Her: oh I'm sure they'd love to but we are quarantining them. I don't let them out of the house
       except to ride their bikes, play in the yard or go for a walk. I'm scared of covid. Nobody even
       comes in my house except for my relatives, my friends and their kids.
Me: ok, well. Thanks anyway. Maybe you'd consider letting them ride bikes with their masks on. If so,
      please let me know. My daughter really [...] you guys.
Me thinking as I hung up phone: what a load of crap!!! Any of those people in & out of her house
      could bring in covid. You either don't allow anyone in or you do.  your kids can go
      outside but each kid riding their own bike is a covid possibility?

Some people are over the top about it! That’s ridiculous. I always laugh when I see people driving their cars on their own with masks on. Hello! There’s no one with u! Plus where we live zero cases, so even more strange!

Too funny! I guess their reflection in the rear mirror might give them covid

My husband says.... "I have a headache & feel like crap... I think I've overslept"

[[Buddie]]

Omg. He needs a good slap  :laugh:my hubby complains about not sleeping well too but can nap for like 3 hrs every afternoon. It’s quiet time for husbands

Yes my husband can lay down for 1 minute & he's easily asleep. Like a light switch he flipped on! I'm so jealous. I've never been one of those people to fall asleep quickly. But I'm happy to fall asleep at all at this point. When he wakes up, he says " ohhhhh I needed that good nap. Felt so good."
I want to smack him and say stop bragging! Now give me that light switch!
