Join the Club




YOUR FUTURE WITHOUT AIU!!!!!

Okay to anyone still alive after my overally long gap. You ever go to dump your trash early in the morning and as you approach the dumpster you hear a noise. Oh well its nothing just a cat. You toss the trash into the air and you hear no landing sound but instead............



OWWWWWWWWWW


You jump and turn around and see a man coming out of the dumpster rubbing his head. You apologize of course and he says its fine. It is one of the dangers of being a dumpster diver. From then on you always listen when you toss the trash.



SOME WHERE OUT THERE!

The Adventure Home



How difficult is it to come home from school at eleven thirty at night? VERY!

First off, they decide to close the onramp to the freeway onramp you depend so much on. Not to mention you have NO sense of direction even with really dark signs all around. So you drive around for a while until you think you see a familiar street that will get you back to the safety of the freeway so you make a sharp turn. You were WRONG; you end up down a very dark street and decide to turn around in an apartment parking lot next to a dumpster. As you are trying to back out you think you see a ………….. HAND STICKING OUT! Your terrified until you give it a second look, it was a plastic bag. Either way you find the freeway as quick as you can.

Your night doesn’t end there as you are trying to change lanes you see something shiny fly rite next to you. It’s a PLASTIC BAG following you. After thinking, it’s a conspiracy against you, you continue on your journey. You reach a freeway that at this time is always flying and is until you see brake lights come out of nowhere, a sea of red. As you, approach all cars start pulling over to the side and you do to just to be safe. Two cars totaled each other. One of them is blocking two lanes and the others hood is on the ground and people are standing in the middle of the freeway. Everyone is pulled over on their phones you assume calling the police. You could to but there were already a lot of people doing so you continue on.

Finally, you drop of your fellow adventurer at her house, you see five cop cars and a fire truck the park next to where she lives, and you approach to see why. A car is on fire in the park.. Too much of an adventure for one night so you head home in one piece.

Beware of Barking People, Baby Medicine but not Drunk Drivers



Okay so it’s an ordinary day in El Cajon and you decide you need to go to Rite Aid and get some baby Motrin. Sounds simple enough what could happen. You get to the isle and in the spot where the baby Motrin is there is a tab that says please see the front desk. Weird but okay you go and ask about it and the clerk says sure and unlocks a cabinet behind him. When you go to pay for it in cash, by the way he asks you for your driver’s license and continues to write down the numbers. You ask why did he need your license and he says that there is drug in baby Motrin that could be made to use to make Methanphedime. He says that they are required to keep track of anyone who buys and to see if there is a pattern with anyone so the cops can bust people on it.

Okay if that wasn’t weird enough walk to your car and start it up okay no big deal. As your car is starting up a dirty looking man is running towards your car………

BARKING. Hell you ain’t gonna stick around to see what he tries. Your foot is on the gas so fast your tires squeel.


A few nights later you get home from school its almost midnight and your start doing work on the computer and you hear a big BOOM. A few minutes later you hear footsteps coming up the stairs and someone banging on your neighbor in the next apartments door. Its some cops asking if they own a white truck parked on the street, they answer yeah its one of theirs. They tell them its totaled a drunk driver hit it. That truck was parked right in front of your Dodge Neon, the car you owe more money than its worth and have thought about paying your sister to lose it somewhere and call it stolen to collect the insurance money. It would be a blessing if it was destroyed. You go out and ask the cops what about the neon in back of the truck. They tell you the driver barley missed it and its fine. You check and it was inches away and there isn’t a scratch on it.

Okay here is a few random car incidents that I know of at this point in time.


1. You’re in the car with your friend who just got their license like two weeks before what could be better finally one of you is driving and you have a way around. You jump on the freeway to go when all of a sudden she yells at the top of her lungs and swerves into three lanes. Of course there is five of you squished in the backseat only made for three. You all panic and you realize what she freaked out about. A deadly plastic bag came right for her. Later that night on your way back you are all deep in conversation include ding the wonderful driver and as she flies right through a stop sign you all panic once again as you see a car come inches from the front of hers. She slams on the brake everyone holds on tight and the car that almost killed you all drives away cussing up a storm and like nothing, she continues the conversation like you all didn’t almost die. Unfortunately, as the years have past this persons driving skills haven’t improved much.

2. Your driving along on the free way like you always do going maybe a little under the speed limit on the lane closest to the off ramp when all of a sudden a cop on a motorcycle comes up right next to you going really fast. Then all of a sudden, he does a 180 on the freeway and heads the opposite direction towards you. Before he can hit you, he goes into the emergency lane and drives by you again.

3. Stupid people are those guys in back of you when the freeway shuts down at eleven at night constantly honking at you. “Excuse me I didn’t know you were waiting let me just start the freeway just for you”

College Saga

Okay so up to this point, all the stories I’ve told have been random events but this time around but this time around, I thought I’d show something that defies random. Don’t be scared off by forty-two minute time, believe its so worth it.






The creator Mark Leung is a god for making this. Any gamer would agree with me. It is the most hilarious thing I’ve ever seen and its completely random, combination of the two best parts of life. Can you believe he got a job working for MTV U out of this and short clips of his have been on the station? I found this randomly one day online, I sent it to a few people, they sent it to a few people, and everyone who saw it thought it was the funniest thing they’d ever seen. I love random people they rule and anyone who could come up with something like this is okay in my book.

What would you do for McDonalds ?




Story two of the El Cajon Saga

Okay so you are ordering food in the drive thru at your local El Cajon McDonalds and you see a car full of people in the parking lot with their food getting in. However, someone puts their food on the top of the car and gets in. The car starts to drive with the bag of food on top of it. You and others notice the food and try to get the drivers attention by honking, yelling and so forth. Nothing the car just continues to drive on the street until finally the food falls onto the street with everything still in the bag. Of course, you expect the foods going to get run over, not in El Cajon.

You see what looks like a bum run into the street, pick up the McDonalds bag with everything it, and take to the tiny island in between the lanes. If that wasn’t weird enough here comes another bum who heads to the one with the food and sucker punches him takes the food and runs away.

Go Away Bear!!!



Okay so imagine some people from church ask you to go camping with them for a weekend. Seems harmless enough what could happen. The ranger at the entrance warned about being careful of where you keep you food because bears have been seen in the area before. You start to unload the stuff from the car: tents, sleeping bags, cooking utensils and so on. There is some stairs that look rickety and not to safe, you would have to go down. You don’t plan and taking any, chances so you decide take what you’re carrying down the hill and just climb down on your own. Unfortunately, you wish you had taken the stairs because only a few steps into it you loose your balance and go rolling down the hill with the bag you were carrying following behind you. When you reach the bottom, you hear and see the others cracking up and holding there stomachs. No one is asking if you are okay by the way.

With only a couple of scratches the weekend and nothing eventual happens until the morning, you are supposed to leave. As breakfast is cooking you hear someone yell and you look over a bear is in site, a couple hundred feet away but close enough where you can see it. Someone mentions about some special on animal planet about the way to scare away a bear is to make a lot of noise. So before it can get any closer everyone either grabs something to make noise with or stands up. So there is everyone banging pans and plates yelling and you and a couple others with your arms in the air yelling “Go Away Bear, Go Away AWWW.” The bear gets spooked and runs away. Just another weekend.

Where Sleeping Bums Lie




First off, let me mention all my stories are all true maybe I myself didn't witness them first hand, but someone told me about it hence the name "I heard it through the nectarine vine".

My first story is part one of my EL Cajon Series. El Cajon is a city on the outskirts of San Diego that is never boring if you have lived their awhile. Okay so imagine you're driving along the road like you always are when all of a sudden you notice a traffic jam in front of you next to a busy intersection. Nothing major it’s usual for this time of day but as you get closer, you notice everyone avoiding the lane next to you. Finally, you see what the hold is up..........





A bum is passed out asleep right in the middle of the street. As you notice, no one is stopping to bother to help this guy out you do the good samaritan thing and stop your car in the middle of the street to avoid letting this guy getting hit by a car. You soon hear police sirens heading your way it seems someone did call the police. They are heading your way and the guy gets enough sense to wake up not say a word, walk out of the street to a bus bench and go to sleep there before the cops come. As quick, as it started its over your day in El Cajon goes on.
