Strange Things I've Seen Recently
Now I was going to write an outraged post last week, but I didn't make the time to do so and I was reminded of that today when I saw two rather odd things. The first was a car driving towards Castle Towers shopping centre and ever 3 seconds the alarm would sound and the lights would flash. I only wish I had been fast enough to video such a strange occurence so that I had some proof.
Secondly, while at the dentist today (my new fillings were hurting so I got them fixed and he did it free of charge which was just lovely) I was paying attention to the tv above me when a scary and rather strange ad came on. It started with an old man rounding a corner into his bathroom with a rose in his teeth (Tango style). The camera then showed his wife in the bath (bubbles covering up to her chin). The old man then proceeded to do a little bit of a strip tease, going so far as to be only in his boxers. Needless to say I was so shocked I don't even know what the ad is for, but the next frame shows them in the bath together at different ends.
Lastly, just last week, January 5th, I was walking through the supermarket when I noticed that hanging at the end of one of the iles was a purple bag with eggs on it. Upon closer inspection, the packet said HAPPY EASTER!!! I hope other people are as outraged as I was to see it. I was tempted to buy it merely for the chocolate value along, but instead I bid it good day and walked away with my head held high. I know Easter is only a few months away and some people like being well prepared (my uncle has started planning for Christmas this year) but couldn't they at least be excited about Australia Day first???
