Well, I suppose that you do have a point. It’s absurdity is what made me laugh so I guess you can say it appealed to my funny bone - but the distinction is that I laughed because it was absurd. Maybe at the moment I read it, laughter was about to crop up within me,it could have been because of something unconscious, causing me to laugh. So perhaps we’ll never know.
Actually, yes, I did but how did you know this? Sometimes that bus was soooooooooooo slow we students had to get out and push, push, push. And forget about it - on a rainy day when there was mud all over the place, sometimes we would slip and fall and all of our hand-me-down clothes would get dirty and by the time we got to school, and got out of the bus, all the mean children would be standing there laughing at us. It was so horrible, so embarrassing. I can’t tell you how many times in those moments I wished that the ground would open up and swallow me. But as Freddie has said: “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”! I sometimes felt like such an outcast - the outcast which I was. But you know what, there were times I was happy being an outcast - when I considered what it meant to be part of the in-crowd.
…and sometimes the school bus would break down and then we would have to walk all the rest of the way to school.
It’s good if you need to look at something up really close but you don’t have a magnifying glass. You can just take a pic and since the screen is that 4k resolution you just zoom in and boom. Instant magnifying glass. Only drawback is that you can’t use it to focus the sun and fry small insects.
Also good for cropping things out of pics taken from a bit further away than you might have wanted. Like you see a weird looking person across the street and snap a pic then you can zoom in and it still looks good.
I put a deposit on a car this morning that I’m hoping to be able to pick up Monday or Tuesday. I’m gonna sell my X3 to a friend who’s waiting for some funds to transfer, then I’m gonna get a 128i. It’s smaller but still has a big engine. Should be pretty fun.
