Last night, I had to deal with a number of kids with homesickness, or what we call domestic nostalgia.  Here’s what they said:

Kid: What music do you listen to?
Me: Mostly stuff from people who’ve been dead for 150 years.
Kid: Oh, like Van Halen.

Me: So what do you do for fun?
Kid: Collect souls, I bought Michael Jackson’s for $1.00.

Kid: You’re awesome at the guitar, you’re like that black guy.

I just received an email from a “Chrisitna Nurikar”. Normally when I respond, I put the recipients name in. But I’m not sure if it’s actually Chrisitna or a misspelling of Christina as the last name “Nurikar” points to some where East of the Caucasus and therefore a DMZ for name spellings.

I could respond with Chrisitna, whereas I would be seen as a dick, or possibly accurate or possibly an idiot as he or she may not know their own name was incorrectly spelled. Gha….

Update:  I read the rest of the email in detail and found the words “neblizer” instead of “nebulizer” and “slee apna” instead of “sleep apnea”.  I think she just can’t spell.

I purchased a chicken cheesesteak today from the local Quikchek or what ever butchered spelling it uses and was miffed when I got the wrong sandwich.

Me: This is a turkey grinder, I ordered the chicken cheesesteak.
Sandwich Lady:  We’re out of chicken, so I switched it with another meat from the same animal.

He reasoning was so flawless I couldn’t argue.
