So Are You a Seeker... December 30, 2001 |
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...
If you hit a whale, call a psychiatrist. Whales are not land animals! You won't be seeing whales jumping across the road in front of you any time soon unless you're on some sort of illegal substance.
This is officially my favorite Found ever.
My driver's ed classes weren't half that interesting. I want my money back!
L
LOL! I thought this rather consternating..."If you're turning w/a stop sign..."
What...s/he is carrying the sign with them in the automobile?
Should be written, "If you're STOPPING at a stop sign, and signaling to turn..."
GEEZ-WHIZ!
If you hit a whale whilst driving, he probably just wants to be friends. Look out for vases of tulips though.....
I wonder what version of " smashed " they had to watch in this class.
Finally...Boston drivers are explained!
I'm guessing that item #1 on the list was from "Diver's Ed." and not "Driver's Ed.". Two completely different classes.
I'm guessing the Transfer Station is where the writer was getting on the train? (Whew!)
Funny Find, Georgia!
My high school drivers' ed teacher had a similar sense of humor. It made two entire semesters of learning an hour's worth of common sense seem less painfully boring.
@Darkshines -- thanks for the vase of tulips reference!
But he obviously hasn't learned Rule 1, which is always hang on to your towel.
And rule 2: DON'T PANIC. (Sorry about the caps, but this page doesn't allow "large friendly letters.")

orinoco womble. for you.
Well, I can see how one can hit a whale...
We have land sharks, don't we?
This find shows me there is hope for the future
Wouldn't it B nice if there was a series of "Things I learned in driver's ed"? I mean we're only getting 2 c what the aspiring driver learned on Tuesday. I want 2 know what s/he learns on Wednesday!
...and I have another driving rule that I learned in Boston and wish 2 share with u all...it's definitely legal 2 PAC ur car in da YAD win deers a KEG in da front! (This was told 2 me by my good friend Bobby Meats...true story)
I wish I had taken that Driver's Ed class.
This is by far one of the funniest finds I've seen yet (if not THE funniest).
And yes, Feeling - this explains it all! Apparently, in Massachusetts, driver's ed is taught by the three stooges.
Dina, this might be one of my favorite finds, too. Alan, I agree wholeheartedly. HA!
Oh my gosh, this has to be one of the funniest finds EVER! Number three literally made me LOL!
Funny!
I wonder if the class was actually this funny or if the author was twisting the lecture points for their own amusement. I take notes like this when I'm really bored. Either way- I'm happy to know that the person I flipped off at the stop sign this morning totally had it coming!
@ Flargy
Nyuck Nyuck Nyuck
The tragic thing here is that this poor young driver has LOST his class notes.
What's he to do now if he drives into a whale or decides to turn terrorist? Whatever shall he do?
@ Darkshines-- I believe it was a bowl of petunias, not a vase of tulips. Good reference, though :)
In #2 ... shouldn't that be "sine waves" rather than "sign waves"?
or would that only apply if an M.I.T. student had lost this?
In my head - I was this funny when I was 16. The reality of it is probably different.
@Mona Lisa: I always thought you were ubercool. Now I know it.
And yes, it was a bowl of petunias. Is. No, was.
"Oh no. Not again."
Funny I taught my friend how to take a picture of a girl he thought was hot without her knowing while he was at drivers ed
and learned he was scared of ants.he called me on his break
xD
If you hit a whale, give him the basket and ask him to the prom. If he says no, interact as friends. Assuming the whale will want to remain friends after you hit him.
So Long and Thanks for all the Fish.
@Mary
Why do you assume the author of this note is male? Just wondering, because to me the handwriting could go either way.
I would like to think this is a kid that thought Driver's Ed is just as stupid as I did when I was that age, and was just trying to ammuse themselves by pretending they're actually learning interesting things.
Whoever it was had quite the imagination.
hahaha!
I've driven in Boston and it's really an adventure in crazy driving and outrageous street configurations! Fully understand why Stephan King calls Mass. drivers Massholes!
I do apologise, its been at least 18 months since I last read HG2TG......
@ Dolphin..nice. I do remember that song from some really funny movie.
My kids have tried to pull the e-brake while I was driving, but I was quicker and threatened to make them walk home.
Thanks, Orinoco Womble. You're pretty cool yourself.
I like pulling the e-brake and doing donuts in snowy parking lots, and freaking out my kids.
Sammy, the movie is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
I hate donuts in parking lots. Mona, my significant other thinks it is hilarious and and will do them just to piss me off and see me get dizzier than hell.
Hey you crazy drivers that like to do donuts: the best place to do them is on a frozen lake. In these days of front wheel drive if you do them in reverse it's much better!
Well, I clearly went to the wrong driving school...
MONA- You are cool!! When you roll over the DON'T PANIC banner...it even says, written in friendly capital letters!
How do you find these wicked sites?
I love your acts of beneficence...thanks!
Georgia Gunner is an extremely cool name. Do you think that's the person's name, or do you think the Finder is a Navy Gunner, orignially from Georgia, now living in Massachussetts?
Coolest Finder name in a long while.
brilliant.
absolutely brilliant.
Epic 'pass'!
nnnahahahaha nnnnahahahaha.. if you hit a whale, it's probably Pearl, and Mr. Crabs will KIIIILL YOOOUUUUU!
And here I thought I was the only one who thought people who didnt follow the "right of way passes to the right" rule on stop signs were horrifically annoying. Makes me so mad when people just wave you through...Eff off mate- go already!
They obviously haven't covered the answers to life, the universe and everything yet.
Me and my friend lauren had drivers class together and this reminds me of EXACTLY what we did the whole time. In ohio it's 4 classes that are 4 hours each b/c our school doesn't offer it. All we did was write dirty poems, sneak out to the indian market down the street, and order pizza to the room. We got in so much trouble and even though it was so boring, it really was something I'll never forget. Whoever wrote this reminds me of my friends :D
Perhaps the author is a recent transfer from Vegas or Atlantic City. A different kind of game warden would be concerned about people hitting their whales.
If you hit a bowl of petunias, you're not going to get much of a response. If you do, it'll probably be along the lines of "Oh, no, not again."
