What's Going On Here?
Jerry Weinberg suggests to "give away your best ideas". He and other people I admire do just that. Now I'm doing the same, posting my ideas here for you to enjoy and use as you wish.
I claim copyright on this material, and at the same time I'm freely offering it up for whatever use you make of it. Maybe you'll throw darts at it. Maybe you'll make it your desktop wallpaper. Maybe you'll turn it into a hit musical. Whatever you do, you're welcome to it. (Please, however, do not simply repost my content wholesale!)
If you do find something useful, source credits and donations are always appreciated!

What A Dip!
Spotted: A person with a humongous sandwich, attempting to wedge it into a tiny bowl of dip. Eventually they got two drops of dip on the end of the sandwich. This was evidently enough, as they then commenced to plow through it!
Literally Figurative
Recently I overheard somebody say that somebody else was "literally stupid". This implies that a person can be figuratively stupid. How would that work?

Bon Appetit
The other day I was walking through my local city park. I wasn't so surprised to see a person sitting on the leeward side of a short wall - the wind was blowing a bit, after all. I was a bit surprised that this person was facing the wall, not sitting against it. I was more surprised to see that this person had a multitude of Tupperware-clad ingredients gathered about and was cooking on a campstove!

Homeless
I walked home after an all-day outing with my buddies. I walked to where I thought my home was, anyway - all that was there now was a vacant lot which didn't seem to ever have been built out.
I stodd there bewildered for a moment, then pulled out my cell phone and called my wife.
