How come all the pens I love stop working? How come all the pictures taken of me turn out crappy? How come the worst pictures are the ones that have to go on official things like drivers' licenses and passports?

Chicklet,
You have been chosen by the Irish Gods to receive special treatment. For the rest of your life you will be blessed with non-working pens and hideous photos.

Welcome to the club :)

Usually because the flashes used in those little photographic booths are too urgent. They'd make Angelina Jolie look like a startled rabbit with anaemia.

Angelina Jolie looks like like a startled rabbit with anaemia. But with makeup and professional lighting.

Anyway, I wouch for an alien conspiracy. I think it's the same buggers that steals my left socks.

Fair point, with a good amount of slap and the benefits of the lighting of a professional phtographer we can all look like a million dollars... I think. :eek:

Lou, who takes all her snaps using the self timer on her little digicam. :rolleyes:
 
If that's your idea of a bad picture, Jenny, we'd love to see the other side.

Seriously, fowlkes, my problem is not pens that stop working, it's that they all run away. If I buy a pack of 3 they last about a week. If I buy a box of 12 pens they last about 6 days. I once bought a gross (144) of bic pens. When I got home they were gone. But there was a lighter in the bag - and I don't smoke.

In self defence I learned to type.
 
It's Murphy's law, Chicklet. The only thing more reliable than gravity!

As for disappearing socks, I saw this comic strip once, where Mulder and Scully are looking into a room full of single socks, and the following dialogue takes palce:

Mulder) -This is it, Scully! The place where all the left socks end up after disappearing in the wash!
Scully) -You have never been closer to the truth than this, Mulder!

Now if I could only get that damned fish to stay in my ear I could find out what Slartibartfast means. (warning: do not say this name in the presence of teenagers while they are eating).
