To the two stoned girls sitting in the bus shelter yesterday:
I was having a completely shitty day. The kind of day that makes you want to crawl in bed and hide from all the self-absorbed douchewads out there. But, alas, I required sustenance and had to go to the grocery store.
I passed by as you were singing Stand By Me, and not singing it very well. You WERE singing it loudly, and with great emotion, which is how that song is supposed to be sung. I returned home with that song in my head and sang it while I was making dinner, just like you. Loudly, not well, but with all my heart. And it fixed my day.

Fish fish McBites, Mcbites. Fish Fish McBites, McBites…FISHY FISHY!
I’m glad that worked out for you, because they annoyed the hell out of the rest of us.
Awwwww
Very nice post. I’m sure people on here will disapprove and mock it though, as it seems like everyone is too cool to like anything.
I HOPE YOU DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think all the love letters on the rant blog today are kinda romantic.
this is where the song gets good
“I won’t cry, I won’t cry, no I won’t shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin’, darlin’, stand by me, oh stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah”
Lucky you. I had some old pissed-pants drunk guy screaming about “Elvis gyrations” at my stop.
On second thought that was actually kind of entertaining.
What is this positivity shit?
Um, you could say THANK YOU!
Ok, SO? You want a hug or something? It’s called Paroxetine – you should try it some time.
When I read this post, I started humming and then singing a little of “Stand By Me”, but I then realized I was actually singing “Lean On Me.” I always get those two songs mixed up.
