    Two funny things that happened to me.

    1. I shared a link to a friend about an event based on their hobby. They said “See you at 9am”. We then spent a strange hour texting back and forth, trying to clear up the “mixed messages” that I am not attending the event.

    2. At a co-working space, a guy spends 10 minutes talking about a YouTube video he saw. He then proceeds to go to the white board, and in detail, write the ENTIRE URL of the YouTube video, and whatever extra stuff. I’m talking about a 60 character link, handwritten, and requested everyone watch it themselves, so there’s no confusion.

    Gotta love it.

      🤣 Handwriting a link is bad enough, but usually, there’s a shortened version you can use to share a link that would have saved him about 40 characters!

      You only ever had two funny things happen to you?

      My goodness how do you stay sane?

      (It honestly took me a few seconds to realize you were not being literal. I hope.)
