Trivia!
FOUND by Julie in Saint John, NB, Canada
I found this on the UNBSJ campus. It's written on the back of an assignment about Thoreau's "Walden" (which got a C).

It doesn't matter what I think, what's important is that I'm here now.

I’ll do anything to become a professional writer, except write

Hmmm…the plan to get famous appears to be based on being a neurotic with anorexia nervosa and a smoker’s cough.

Yep, she’ll make the news alright, at least the obituaries, and soon.

Regarding #7, most gynecologists would frown on this behavior (as would optometrists and 4 out of 5 dentists)

Ahh college kids.

I'd love to see all Universities implement a mandatory college course to be taken just before graduation. It should be called: "You Are Not Special. Carry On."

Miss Scarlet in in the Study with a Revolver
Enumerated lists infuriate me.

I think it's other people's chronic coughing that infuriates the writer, not his/her own (though for some reason I think this is a female).

Interesting use of nurse's shorthand...the arrows & checks.

"I am an expert on other people's lives." A lot of people are. Particularly those whose own lives are a shambolic mess.

She blames her constant wearing of sneakers on her orthos. Orthodontist, orthopedist, her Orthodox Jewish friends..

She clearly is writing to be funny. She strikes me as witty and confident. Where's the shame in that?

@OriNoco –
Thank you for “those whose lives are a shambolic mess”…

Shambolic mess. Rolls off the tongue (and complicates lives, to boot!)

Now- regarding #1 - shoe-wear...

@ baby basil in the herb garden
"She blames the sneakers on her "orthos"? Her onions? Her what, now?"
>>>Maybe bunions??

casual dressy in Chucks said: "She blames her constant wearing of sneakers on her orthos. Orthodontist, orthopedist, her Orthodox Jewish friends.."
>>>Must be her Orthodox Jewish friends, or as Geek NOT pointed out......

Geek NOT in My Mom's Basement: "Regarding #7, most gynecologists would frown on this behavior (as would optometrists and 4 out of 5 dentists)"
>>>Orthopedists, too.

That would be ooooold advice, to wear sneakers.

@ "wishing": So what are "orthotics", oh all-knowing wise one?
Unless of course you've misspelled something else...
+ August 28, 2009 01:58 PM +
Flatfoot in MA
Orthotics (orthos) are inserts that people wear in their shoes to solve foot pain, back pain etc. They don't fit in all shoes - with good quality sneakers you can usually take out the insert and put your orthotic in.

In other words, she has flat feet.

Wasn't Orthos one of the Three Musketeers?

Oh, wait..that was Porthos.

Never mind.

Jeez, people. Since when is writing about oneself automatically narcissistic, particularly when there's no sign that the writer ever planned to show this to anyone? Is my sarcasm detector broken, or are most of you truly unable to tell that 1, 2, 5, and 10 are tongue-in-cheek?

I think I WOULD like to hang out with this person. I like their honesty and dry sense of humor.

I try not to dress too, but I keep getting foiled with those trumped up public indecency charges.
