people are curious creatures.

I buckled down and have been studying in our life sciences study room for several hours. It's about 65 degrees or less in here. Not conducive to nap taking... I'm usually freezing when it's below 75 degrees, so I'm currently a shriveled purple color.

We have these couches and chairs inside and outside this study room. The chairs are made of this hideous, yet appropriate, multicolored fabric. The arms of the chair are topped with a wooden panel an inch deep that run the length of the arm. They're mildly modern looking.

After years of use, these chairs and couches are holding up nicely in my opinion. However, many of the wood-paneled arms fall off. These panels are basically, glossy 2 x 4's, so when they hit the linoleum they make a surprisingly loud noise.

It is not uncommon to sit in a chair and have the arm panels fall to the ground in a great commotion. The hilarity of this scenario is that, without fail, EVERY SINGLE PERSON this happens to, before leaving, will carefully put the wood back on the arm of the chair for another unsuspecting fool to knock off and create more racket. It kills me!

How many years of college education does it take to remove all common sense from an individual?

Boneheads.

Isn't that peculiar, I love it! Maybe we all secretly want everyone else to feel our same embarrassment.....or the world is full of tons of OCD people and we have to have it back the way it is supposed to go, broken or not.....hmmm
