Pornographic Triangles
I was headed home on the bus the other day when one guy turned to another and said, “do you know why libraries are square?”
“Noooo…” came the reply.
“Because some politician decided triangles were pornographic” said the first guy.
Rather than reply the second fellow, who incidentally was sitting next to me, just shook his head and got up to sit somewhere else on the bus. The first guy took his seat. I was concerned that he may push his crazy theory on me but he kept his peace. That is, until I wanted to leave at my stop. Then he stood up and gripped the handrails on either side of the way to the exit.
Just as I was completing my mental calculation of how hard I would have to hit one of his arms to regain my freedom he finally let me pass with just enough time to exit before the doors closed. Looking back I saw him sit right back down in the same seat. And before you ask no, he didn’t need to stand up to let me pass. He just got up to block my way for awhile.
Can’t we harvest these people’s organs or something? If we could sacrifice this nut job to cure Michael J. Fox I’d consider that a win.
Before you break out the pitchforks know that I am joking. Well, mostly.
