In It of Itself - Your Bed Sounds Delicious
FOUND by Robert Keim
in Red Creek, New York
Either schizophrenic or one sided, either way it is random. I cannot imagine the context-- a meeting? a class?

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
and "spaghetties" in bed would be double delicious.
this makes me sad for some reason. it seems so lonely.
and on a lighter note...we do that in our family all the time. someone says 'let's go the playground' and i'll say 'you ARE the playground!' and it's awesome. so yeah.
I see this is "notes passed in school" week on Found. This is the same as the other note conversation, only difference being that instead of sharing the paper, each person has their own sheet. The finder just didn't find the other half of the conversation.
How come "Rob"'s name isn't blocked out but the other person's is? Kinda tough on Rob, isn't it?
Right now, bed sounds a lot more delicious than spaghetti o's. Spaghetti o's just sound gross.
i hate spaghettios. THey're slimy.
My kids do the 'your mom' thing. i.e.
ooh.never mind..i was going to say it with delicious spaghettios, but it just sounds dirty.
i dont see the connection there. OH thats why.
Your mom goes to college!
The blocked name bothered me, too. Who blocked it out? Why? Was it blocked when found? Blocked by Robert Keim, the sender? (Hmmm Rob = Robert?) Or block by the Jason et al?
My son actually dropped a bowl of spaghettios in his bed. After I washed the sheets, the stains looked like I'd tried to clean up a bloody crime scene. That spaghettio sauce is hard to clean up.
I think the writer of this note was interrested in the other note writer. Well, right up until he found out he/she didn't like spaghettios. Then, all bets were off.
This is a note written to one person during a teacher staff meeting. The other person is writing back on their own paper. I love it! At my staff meetings, teachers are always making rude little comments under their breath about things the principal says, or writing notes like this one. Sounds like these two teachers may be sleeping together...hmmmmmm. Church is another place you see note-writing like this. Anyplace you are bored and must remain silent. This is a great find.
Rob must be the instructor. Having lost his charm, seems to have no sense of humor, and complains, the writer would rather discuss spaghettios with a classmate (mmmmm..delicious bed...)
I am trying imagine the class..some freshman college class, like How to Succeed in College 101.
or not
In it of itself, spaghettios are boring. Your bed, however, sounds delicious (hoping you have washed the sheets since the last time I was there).
In it of itself, this class sucks and Rob needs to chill (possibly in Bakersfield. I know a great spot).
This reminds me of a Family Guy episode, where Peter dreams of eating a sheep, but all he was able to finish before waking up was the back half of the animal. Upon awaking he realizes his pillow is gone, and Brian points this out; Peter doesn't believe it, thinking he'd never eat a pillow. Of course a moment later a half eaten sheep drags itself in the room freakin' out and cryin'. Life lesson.. don't eat the furniture, and spaghettios look like mattress coils.
In it of itself?
There is an episode on This American Life called A Little Bit of Knowledge, where they explore things that children "who get a mistaken idea in their heads about how something works or what something means, and then don't figure out until well into adulthood that they were wrong."
That is what In it of itself reminds me of...that episode.
Is that really "ironic" or is it more "self-contradictory"?
Lolita- for the longest time, probably until I was a junior in college, I had no clue what "caush" was and it really drove me crazy as to why we are throwing "Caush into the wind"!
Why is the line about Rob losing his charm in quotations?
i think i've figured it out!
my friends & i used to do this all the time in class. this guy has his own sheet of paper, writing out the note, and his friend is responding on his/her own sheet of paper.
try it, save it, and then a week later try and remember what all the random rambling was about.
In and of itself, this is quite a decent Find. Thanks, Robert Keim.
Les Brers, my take is that it's in quotes because this person said they put that on their eval of the class.
the other writer (on his or her own paper, as others have posited) wrote, "really? what did you SAY?!"
and the words in quotes are what this person put on the evaluation.
Spaghettios remind me of that scene in "Seven" with the gluttony guy. Haven't touched 'em since.
