"What's wrong with this picture" moments
If there's already a thread for this, I apologize. Today I had not one, but two sightings that made me stop to scratch my head, thinking that something was not quite right.
First, while shopping for dinner, I saw "Toasted Marshmallows" in the grocery aisle. If that doesn't suck all the fun out of marshmallows, I don't know what does. It turned out that the marshmallows were not infact pre-toasted, but instead coated in toasted coconut. Still, I have to believe that toasting one of those would yield unwanted results.
Then, on my way to the car in the parking lot, I saw a Toyota Prius with a "Vote for Bush" sticker on it. Hmm...
What have you seen that gave you pause today?

Maybe they were "Three Mile Island" lobsters?
I was here. Then I wasn't. Then I was again.
Flicking through the movie channels I had cause to pause at the film "Killer Shrews".
Watched it for five minutes:
"I had to tell him about the shrews Greg. He would have left otherwise. Those damn shrews..."
I looked out the window and what did I see? Popcorn popping on the apricot tree.

mmmm... tree popcorn...
Flipping through the channels I see a movie title "Beautiful Girls". Leave it on the station, first person on the screen is Rosie O'Donnell. Now if that isn't an oyxmoron, I don't know what is.

But, she's beautiful on the ins....no, wait. You're right.
i didnt see it today but...
walking through the mall we come upon a store that sells cookies and the like.
at first glance i see the sign above it.
the sign says
"douche balls"
upon closer inspection i read it to say "dough balls"
i inform the dude about the sign problem and he's all like "yeah, i get that a lot"
well then why the fork would you not get a different sign?
one that does not make you think of DOUCHING when ordering a cookie?

The fact that some of it is in German makes it all the more surreal. Who knew Germans could be so fly?
From my recent road trip:
A bar near the corner of Tennessee and Alabama with a rebel flag hanging on the wall that read, "Rebel blood in my veins, Yankee blood in my yard."
A life-size cardboard cutout of Bush in Nashville. Someone added a cowboy hat. People were taking pictures with it.
An old man at a bar in New Orleans that just walked up to people, pointed at them, shook hands with them, and stumbled on to the next person.
A billboard in Mississippi that read, "All I know is... everything. - God."
A porn shop in Maryland, with a sign directly out front that read, "All porn will ruin is... everything."
A department store in Alabama with a professional-looking sign on the front that read "No weapons allowed on these premises." These words were beneath a picture of a handgun, with a red circle and a slash.
Kentucky.

The city some distance from my own little town, has gotten a christies cabaret gentlemens club. Its shiny and has fancy lights that change colours surrounding the entire building, which stands 3 stories, and has huge faux-windows that glow and flicker so very lovely with iridescence.
Right in front of it, a sign that reads, `your cities tax dollars at work`
I know this means the roads, but if that aint some shit! Ahaha! There is a major lawsuit going on with them and the city at present. which makes it even more laughable.

Bump.
Yesterday I saw a vanity lisence plate that said "Godz Grrl."
There is hope, but not for us.

I have one!!! We were driving between Leeds and Hull the other week, over the motorways throught the slightly more rural areas and there was this giant red sign that said '5 LIVERS' and I thought, hmm, I wonder what that 5 livers sign is all about? Are they selling livers off in fives, some kind of farm surplus special offer? When I looked back at it though it said 'SILVERS' and not '5 LIVERS'. Now Kevin texts me when he passes the 5 livers sign on his way to visit me, well, when he remembers to anyway.
On a public pay-phone, a sticker reading: "NO PERSONAL CALLS". (small town, bored on an afternoon, had a label maker... yeah, you get the idea.) 
Yeah but 5 LIVERS YOU SILLY BASTARDS!
Also, there was this giant bug rolling across the desk in one of my lectures, scared the shit out of me. Turns out I was just seeing things. Same goes for the foot that was sticking out of my pillowcase this morning.

Because the sign brings attention to the store.
"Douche balls?!....Oh no, wait it's dough balls.....Hey look! Cookies! I'll take thirty."
You will never be famous.
thats what we in the biz call "a delayed reaction"
today i saw a pair of mens boxer shorts filled with shit and put into the baby changing table of the olive garden that i worked for
i saw worked becuase after seeing that, being told to touch it, and vomiting, i quit.
a family came into work consisting of two twin midget children a midget mother and a 6'5 dad
a guy with a hunch back was standing in line at starbucks when a lady blindly smacked into him, she was just the right height that she made face to hump contact. He scuttled around to help her up and she was fucking solid red.
are there any cult midgets?
midgets are weird
theyre little people... but theyre normal on the inside... meaning... they can weigh the same as a not midget and they have normal size organs and can have normal size babies... and penises...
thats why midgets have big dicks- theyre just big in proportion to their bodies...
i dont know any midgets...
but as for a WWWTPM- i dont have one
Today on the way to work I heard the following conversation.
Frat Boy 1: "Yeah, Jesus was a playa."
Frat Boy 2: "Jesus was a [sic] effervescent epitome."
Whereupon they both laughed heartily.
There is hope, but not for us.
You know those snack-food-vending machines, the ones that use long metal spirals that rotate to spit out the products into the bin? Well, the one where I work has one of those spirals full of microwave popcorn bags. Good thing, except that the genius who loaded this decided to alternate "Butter" and "Butter Lite" Styles.
The regular Butter flavor is in front, but it's got like three times the calories and has way too much butter flavor. I want the Lite. I'll go back later to see if someone bought the damn butter. *grumbles*
I also saw a used motorcycle for sale with only 381 miles on it. It had very tiny scratches on the right footboard and mirror.
