During my Professional Writing class, the first writing assignment was to start writing a lead about anything that comes into our minds. Earlier that day, our tutor was quite surprised when I pulled my keychain out of my bag, thrusted one of my keys into the front of my laptop and opened the lid with it (this was because the opening switch on the front of it broke quite a while ago). Because of this, I decided to write about a funny story in connection with my notebook.
Later on, I promised another story, so here it is:
Two of my friends and I like to play games via LAN (Local Area Network). During one of our usual gatherings, I asked our host (one of the two guys, whose place is closest to a specific hypermarket I'm not going to name :D ): "Please give me something thin and pointy." "Why?" - he asked. "Because my laptop opening switch is broken." - I answered. Then he started looking around his desk, and finally, he handed me a BUTTERFLY KNIFE.
"Dude, what the hell did you give me this for?" - I asked. "Well, you did ask for something thin and pointy. This is all I have" - sounded the reply. I took the knife with a look of shock and disbelief, and pushed it into my laptop. The scenario was funny and awkward at the same time, and I saw that my friend found it very amusing. Ever since then, when I visit my friend I just say to him after unpacking: "Give me the knife", and I open the lid with an expression like this:
*rofl*
