I used to enjoy writing the Three Things Thursday posts, so I don’t know why I stopped doing them. When I was a kid, my older brother had a book called “Deep Thoughts” (as well as the sequels “Deeper Thoughts” and “Deepest Thoughts”) by Jack Handy. They were like coffee table books: a random (often very funny) thought on every page. Just a few sentences and nothing deep; just a bite of something you can normally relate to.
When Twitter became mainstream, I started seeing screenshots of tweets popping up everywhere, and many of them looked like they were straight out of a Deep Thoughts book! Here are a few that made me laugh. And then I’ll throw in some random ones of mine like…
This guy, @simoncholland, is HILARIOUS. I follow him on Instagram (his posts are just screenshots of his tweets, like this one). |
Someone?! I’m really curious. |
When I deleted everything from Facebook recently, I saved a lot of my old “status updates.” I mainly wrote funny things my kids said or did and I stopped writing them years ago, but I found some funny ones. Here are three that made me smile…
Listen, if you ignore the hairstyles, the 1990s were the best decade ever. |
Noah was 11 years old at the time. |
(Eli is right-handed) |
And a fourth, because it was difficult to narrow it down to just three! …
Back then, my friends used to tell me that I should write a book about the funny things my kids say/do; While I don’t think they’re worthy of a book, I’m really glad I wrote this kind of stuff. I wish I had continued these posts over the years; It’s very fun to remember them. Kids are so much fun when you take the time to really listen to them! I wish I had written more of his teenage stuff, because I certainly wasn’t ready for *that* 😉
