Great story Kevmode. And I appreciate you laying out all the details as it provides more context. Thank God you're safe. Seeing somebody die can be quiet a traumatic experience. It's much better to talk about it, from a psychodynamic perspective at least.

Hey kevmode what's your take on FTP at the moment? I've been worried about you, it seems you are going to be the most hurt by all this...

I think TV news anchors could afford to take a page out of OP's book.

"Breaking News! I forgot to set my alarm this morning so I woke up about 45 minutes later than usual. I decided to skip breakfast to make up for lost time and thankfully the traffic on Highway 7 was lighter than usual so I made it into the studio just in time. I asked our cameraman Roger if he had anything I could snack on before we went on the air, and he said that he was meeting friends for lunch this afternoon and that he didn't pack anything. Fortunately one of our interns, Amy, a woman in her late 20's wearing a gray Eddie Bauer blazer with matching dress pants, overheard my predicament and told me she had a box of Nutri Grain bars in the lunch room I could have. We were on the air in only 20 minutes, so I quickly made my way to the dining hall and found the box of Nutri Grain bars. They were cinnamon flavor, and while I generally prefer strawberry, they did just fine. I hastily made my way to the anchor desk and made it there with 3 minutes to spare. President Obama was assassinated this morning."

Most surreal trip report ever.

I'm reading about check in... I'm reading about crappy dinner... I'm reading about a poker hand against an old lady... the whole time I'm thinking, "Why is this here? Doesn't a dude get ****ing shot at some point?"

It's like when you're watching Simpsons reruns and breaking news comes on that there's been a 40 car pile up on the highway. Is your first thought, "FML, I haven't seen that episode, and now I'm going to miss the first half..."

tl;dr the OP obv

too many great posts to quote

5* thread




EDIT: I had to read it. Pretty funny, OP. Lots of details. It felt like I was there eating dry chicken with you. Please watch the mixing of your verb tenses. It makes it harder to read.


Still a better writer than J. Hughes imo
