Facebook members shudder over crazy people in their past

Facebook member realizes making it hard for people to find her on facebook would actually show her who the more stalker-like or crazy people are to find her over the more normal people she knew. It's those stalker-like/crazy people who would find you in the end because they spend all that time ... well ... stalking. And the ones who give up sooner are either less talented at stalking or decide it's too much work to stalk.
In related news, another facebook member got curious and looked up some crazy people he once knew. Upon seeing that they still seemed crazy, he got a bit freaked out at both being part of their lives again and almost as if they had seen him looking at them. He clicked back home, breathed a sigh of relief that they did not actually see him checking out their facebook pages, and they remained blissfully unaware.

Houses on cleaning products TV ads only seem to get patches of clean spots

While watching a TV ad for a cleaning product, viewer realizes those houses never really get full cleaned, they only have patches of cleanliness. Viewer would not want to live in, or even visit for that matter, a house where there are only clean patches; they never seem to actually clean the whole area in those houses riddled with dirt, scum, and all kinds of grease stains. It's really not necessary to leave back the dirt, grease and the like to see that the product cleans it up; it either will or it won't do the job.

Pre-Christmas miracle takes place in office lunch room


Some employees that sit next to the office lunchroom noticed what may just be a pre-Christmas miracle. It occurred during the week leading up to Christmas. The usual smells of burning things or stinky lunches that usually waft through to choke the neighbouring cubicles did not happen on the pre-Christmas week. In fact, the toaster that is often found sitting (and sometimes smoking) underneath the paper towel dispenser did not appear underneath the dispenser for the week.

Local woman experiences pre-Christmas miracle at Wal-Mart


During busy Christmas season, local woman went to pick up some grocery items at Wal-Mart. Although she prepared herself mentally for standing in a long line up with potentially screaming children, in the midst of several long line-ups, she came upon a line-up that was not long, nobody was waiting for a price check, nor were there any screaming children in it. The people in the line-up neither jostled nor ran over the woman’s feet with their carts, and most importantly, she did not get pepper sprayed. Local woman came away unscathed. It was … a pre-Christmas miracle!
