Tommy's Thursday Thoughts: Vol. 29 - Ordering Market Price Food

-One of life’s biggest power moves is ordering market price food at a restaurant without knowing what the price is. For example, if there was market price lobster mac & cheese, here’s how you would order it. “I see the lobster mac is market price tonight. How much?” As the waiter begins to respond, put your hand up to cut him off and say, “You know what? I don’t want to know. I want the lobster mac. I’m getting the lobster mac!” Everyone at the table will be blown away.

-When watching old movies that are black and white or in color but fuzzy looking, it’s weird to think that in real life, they were just as crystal clear and colorful as life today.

-I appreciate it when someone tells me that they read and believe horoscopes. It’s a nice way of letting me know I should never take anything they say seriously.

-One of life’s great dilemmas: If the person walking in front of you is going to hold two doors for you in a short span, when should you thank them? You can go with the double thank you, but that might seem excessive. You can hit them with a thank you only after the first door and assume it carries over for the second. Or you can just thank them after the second door, but then they might think you’re a rude piece of shit for those few seconds between doors. Talk about a pickle!

-Handwriting is interesting.

-This is the 29th volume of Tommy’s Thursday Thoughts. My birthday is April 29th. I have a friend born on leap day, February 29th. I always thought that was cool and got kind of jealous. So when I was younger, I would tell people that since my birthday is on a 29th, I’m also kind of a leap day baby. It turns out that’s just not how it works at all.

-I feel like everyone has a piece of pencil stuck in their hand from elementary school. Or maybe it’s just me, and I’ll one day die from lead poisoning.

-I’ve never seen a Twitter poll I haven’t voted in. Even when I know absolutely nothing about the topic, if I see a poll, I vote in the poll.

-I hate the conflict stages of movies. I wish movies were just feel good from start to finish. In a superhero movie, I just need to see him kick ass. In a romantic comedy, I don’t need to see the breakup. I just want to watch happiness from start to finish.

-The person who created the tradition of not seeing the bride in a dress before the wedding has saved men millions of hours of dress shopping over the years. A true hero.
