like a mini horse in a china shop…

ok, so christen told me i shouldn’t blog about this because i would sound like a jerk that makes fun of people. so i need you all to promise me that you won’t think i’m a jerk that makes fun of people after reading this. ok, deal?

i just couldn’t let this story go untold. much like yesterday’s lunch break (as i blogged about yesterday), some serious awesomeness occurred to which i just happened to be an observer. i was heading home, driving down markham, and at a bus stop (of course), i saw a woman and a man. the woman was morbidly obese and it looked like she had just walked out of some kind of twisted redneck sideshow. she was engaged in a fight with her man friend. her man friend just so happened to be a shirtless redneck midget dwarf little person wee man vertically-challenged guy wearing cut-off jorts. oh yes…it was that awesome.
he was pumping his fist and yelling at the woman (i couldn’t hear, unfortunately). apparently, at about the time i was preparing to pass them, the tables turned and she took a small step toward him and began shaking her finger at him. as she lunged in his direction, he took off down the sidewalk like a little mini-horse at at the wee derby. apparently he knew, as i also thought, that with one spread of her mighty cheeks, he could be swallowed up and never seen again.
good choice my little redneck friend. run, run away…
so, kids, the moral of the story is to be alert and observant as you drive because you never know when you’ll see a 400 pound woman send a wee little redneck man in cut-offs running down markham on a busy friday afternoon…
