Ok, I had two I wanted to post here but I forgot one, so only slightly less amusing of the two is here. This one took place on the way back to school after lunch with my friend Mike. Enjoy and continue.
Me: So what're you doing in english?
Mike: Watching 'Of Mice and Men' BEFORE we read it for some reason.
Me: It should be 'Of Mouses and Men' because then it would be about computers.
Mike: Or bad grammar...
Me: Which would inevitably lead to Windows spell check. See? It all works out!
Mike: Or it wouldn't and would just go into electric and online dictionaries.
((At this point I start to reference a conversation from the day prior about how I wanted and object made from solid explosion... used in noun form.))
Me: Man, I now want a dictionary made of electric, as though electric weren't an adjective and rather a noun representing a solid object of which things can be made.
Mike: So it's an abstract dictionary?
Me: Yes, cow is defined as 'an animal that makes noises.'
Mike: More like 'an animal that makes annoying moo noises.'
Me: Nah, it wouldn't get that specific.
Mike: It should be a Pablo Picasso dictionary, like as in abstract art.
Me: Hah! Face is defined as 'ugly.'

We're getting so old.
I was talking with this one guy, no one here knows him. And he was like, "dude, I just saw that guy from when we were at the bar that one time!"
And I was like "no way, the guy that did that crazy thing!"
He goes, "Yeah, he was totally doing it again! And another guy walked by and saw him, and he started doing it too!"
I said "No effing way!"
He was like, "Yeah, it was so awesome!"
Man. I wish you guys were all there.
I nearly wet my pants, except I was reading a book. But I think someone else did, because he got off at the next stop.
