BRAIN FART AWARDS
I am proud to announce, that even since I posted the latest BFA's this morning, we have EVEN MORE entries for the...
BRAIN FART AWARDS II
Z has submitted a couple from her own M (can you believe that two M's of equal brain farting ability can exist in one world? Well, apparently it's true.) - And now it seems more have joined in the fun! Hooray!
And since the BFAs were my idea, I can declare that a contestant may be entered more than once as people can have more than one brain fart in a lifetime.
Here are our nominees:
Entry # 1
For the guy who tried to pull into McDonalds by driving his car up the sidewalk ramp for pedestrians and bicycles.
Entry #2
For my M - who thought chicks were mistreated because we "make 'em pop out of those shells."
Lastest entries:
Entry #3:
For my M (once again) - who when I was explaining about being stuck in traffic due to some sort of accident that I never actually saw but rather only saw a single SUV on the side of the road, said to me, "Maybe the SUV was an ambulance. Did it have lights on top?"
Entry #4 (submitted by Z)
For Z's friend M - who told Z that she couldn't call her on her cell phone because she didn't know where Z would BE.
Entry #5 (submitted by Z)
For Z's friend M (yet again - see what I mean?) - for wanting to know what a pickle bush looked like.
For Schmidt - For asking her son during a power outage to get the cordless phone so she could call work to tell them she was going to be late... For then realizing that the cordless wouldn't work with out power... And then insisting that her son plug her dead cell phone in so it could charge.
Entry #7
For B - who when told the song on the radio happened to be number one in England on the day I was born, asked me, "You were born in England?"
Entry #8 (submitted by Jenorama)
For Jen - who stalled the blender while making pesto, so decided to tap it down with a wooden spoon - with the blender still on.
Entry #9 (submitted by Karl)
For Karl - who thought his speedometer was broken for the past two weeks only to have it pointed out by a passenger last night that he'd accidentally switched the digital readout to kilometers.
Entry #10
For Earl - who lost his keys for 36 hours because he put them in refrigerator’s crisper drawer.
Entry #11
For Earl - who shipped his boss’s house/car keys to Texas inside a customer’s package.
Entry #12 (submitted by Vicki)
For Vicki - for thinking she could open up the sprinkler system by herself... So she could save $55... Apparently, its not as easy as it looks.
