Most of yall might be to young to remember "New Coke". Came out mid 80's and was a huge failure. Coke had to go back to the old recipe in a huge hurry. aaaahhhh the good ol days.
So as we get older, I find it easier and easier to amuse myself at weird moments. For example.....
Went across the street to McD's yesterday for lunch. Was busy as hell in there and when I finally got my food, I turned around to see no tables available. But I did see plenty of seats.
So I eyeballed what I thought would the most harmless guy in there, looked him in the eye and sat right the fuck down at his table and started eating. after several dirty looks he finally gets up, throws his shit away, and goes running to the manager (who knows me really well cause Im in there like 4 times a week) and starts pointing over in my direction.
The manager seemed to be telling him "Im sorry Mr. I will take care of it blah blah blah." Next thing I know I see him walking my way. I say "Hey Tim how are ya?" "not bad Dave. heres an apple pie, that was fuckin HILARIOUS!"
I do things like this all the time. Specially when Im out with the wife and kids because they are easily embarresed.
However I have had a few things go kinda wrong. For instance, I read somewhere on the internet at sometime, a whole list of cool shit to do in your local wal-mart stores. I hate wal-mart so I went to Target with my daughter instead. In one vistit, I accomplished the following......
1. I set ALL the alarm clocks in the houseware department, to 5 minute intervals on each one.
2. I moved all the "wet floor" signs to the carpeted areas.
3. In the camping department, they had a tent set up. I was trying to invite people in but told them they had to bring pillows from the bed department (no one obliged but they all thought it was funny.)
4. I ran up to a younger looking clerk, walked by him and in a soft voice I said, "We got a code 3 in electronics, take care of it NOW!" and ran away like my hair was on fire.
5. Got escorted out of Target by security while they were trying their best not to laugh their ass off.
My daughter was absolutly mortified. She still is reluctant to go to Target with me.
aaahhhhh being old/a parent is fun. And torturing your kids to the point where they wanna go into the fetal position and cry.....Mission accomplished!!
