Today, I was out last minute Christmas shopping with my dad. We came out of the store that we were shopping in to find an elderly lady having her purse stolen by a man. My dad started running towards them, but the lady had it under control. Before the man could start running, she said very calmly, “Swiper, no swiping!” three times. The man exclaimed “Aw man!” and dropped...

The other day, my family and I ordered Chinese food. After we finished eating, I ate my fortune cookie but wasn’t satisfied with my fortune. Since they send five fortune cookies and we only have four people in our family, I ate the last one to try and get a better fortune. It was empty. This has happened to me three times now… Apparently, you can only have one fortune. MLIA.

When I got the test back, I noticed a +20 points for...

Today, my dad’s friend Pants (yes, that is his nickname) had to have his leg amputated below his knee because of a blood clot. We’ve known for a while this was going to happen and to prepare, my dad and his friends went and stole the leg from a store mannequin to give to him as a get-well-soon gift. Hopefully he finds it as amusing as everyone else does. MLIA

Next week, I’m moving into a new house with some friends (I’m 21 and a student). The house is a beautiful old Victorian building, in a convenient location, loads of space etc, but that’s not what I’m excited about. No, I’m excited because 1.
