Blogosphere, I have seen them myself. Twice in one weekend, too!
Exhibit A: Running into pole (Ann Arbor, MI)
This guy was walking so briskly down Fuller and he was really focused on something going on across the street. I would have guessed that he was staring at some hot lady since he seemed one part lanky and many part creepy, but the only people on the other side of the street were the construction workers drilling holes into the concrete.
Maybe he was admiring/envying/coveting after their hard hats or safety green vests (I would be).
And then BAM, he just smacked the entire pole with his entire face and body, so hard. I actually thought he was going to fall back. He was thoroughly embarrassed. I didn't even know whether or not to laugh or to be concerned or to pretend like I didn't see it even though we were the only two people on that entire sidewalk for about a mile either way. I said nothing, but walked away, focusing on the thought that I had about what a great blog entry this would make for.
Exhibit B: (New York, NY)
Fancy restaurant + Fancy dinner + Fancy lady + Fancy outfit + Fancy shoes + trip to the fancy bathroom + coming out with toilet paper stuck on the bottom of her fancy shoe.
I thought about saying something to the lady, but it was.. too late. The moment slipped right past me. Instead of running after her, I made a mental note to add this to the blog entry that I had already planned on titling "textbook failures."
One of my very best ones!
