That’s right: it’s time for some social media fun! This is where the proprietor of a website solicits participation from the crowd, preferably in a way that’s both reality-based and irreverant.
So here it is… As you can see on the immediate right, I – that’s me in the picture, btw – I have a bandage on my face. If you look closely you can see it sort of at the back of my jaw, right at the corner part there. I don’t know if there’s enough light…
Anyways, I’ve got that thing on my face as of today, and I’m starting to notice something that never occurred to me before: most people don’t have bandages on their face.
Even people who use public transit (as it turns out).
As an aside, it’s not a “band-aid,” which is trademarked by Johnson & Johnson — as in BandAid® Adhesive Bandages… “BandAid: Sticks with You Through the Years.”*
Anyways, this is a very roundabout way of asking for suggestions for stories I can use to explain why I’m wearing a conspicuous bandage. To start things off, the nurse suggested I could tell people I got in a fight over a girl; I got the impression she uses that one on a daily basis.
All ideas are welcome — and keep in mind, I have very little shame (at least not when there’s an opportunity for jokes).
