The Odd Plant in the Corner

A number of years ago I drew a picture that I called "The odd plant in the corner." I thought it was clever and a bit edgy and well done. It wasn't. The point is sometimes we think we do great things but upon further review we discover that they are in fact not great things. This reminds of one a story. One cold evening shift time I was working as a sandwich artist at the local subway and these two guys came in and asked if they could get some sandwiches at the employee discount, which at the time was 100% off. I pretended to not comprehend what they were saying until they got angry and left. One said he was going to be a famous soccer player. The point is that I also did the same thing to a telemarketer yesterday and she had to transfer me to someone else.  And now that I remember, this one time a telemarketer called and kept interrupting him saying "Did you say something? Hello?" There are no words to describe the funniness. But words like funny and uproarity are words that maybe could come close to describing it.
