Blip #7: Purple Sweatpants

I was on the tram home from Tesco yesterday (looking for neon stuff to wear to the 80's party. Then I remembered that 1, the 80's were a smear in the face of modern fashion, and 2, I look sickly in neon) and this teenager in purple sweatpants was sitting in front of me. In addition to the purple sweatpants (?!), he had on rollerblades.

He got up for his stop before the tram fully stopped, and I guess he forgot that he had on rollerblades on, because he wasn't holding onto a pole. The motion of the tram propelled him backwards, and he nothing to hold onto. And with an amazingly smooth, single zip, he rolled to the back of the tram while flailing his arms, falling against the rear window.

People helped pick him up and dust him off. He was fine. People on the tram thought this was pretty funny, and were chuckling to themselves. I almost cried trying not to laugh aloud.

Other Stuff I Find Funny:

1. Matching father-son mullets

2. The word "Ausfahrt"
