Drabble by Kevin Fagan for October 07, 2024

No accountability whatever

This hits close to home!

I’ve told Alexa to find my phone at least three times one after the other before I finally tracked it down in my apartment.

I’ve done that and when they pick-up I say it’s always found the last place you left it !

Why bother holding it up to their ears?

There are none so blind as those who will not see!

On a trip with the family. Sis in law leaves hotel after checking out and starts looking for her phone! Can’t find it. Her granddaughter calls it and it is ringing in her handbag and she still couldn’t find it!! LOL! Finally at the airport she found which of the dozen pockets it was in!

My favorite: In line at Costco and the guy behind me is calling his wife to let her know he was checking out. I hear a phone ring…in a purse…on his cart.

My wife asks to call her phone on any given day on the Fagan house. Cheers!

I bet they also say, “See you later, bye.” when about to disconnect the call.

My wife was driving us home from her parents house, she suddenly started to panic and frantically began searching in her purse with one hand while driving with the other. I ask her whats wrong? “My keys! I think I left my keys at mom&dads place!!” I just started laughing, my eyes going from her face to the ignition and back.

This happens all the time at our house but the roles are reversed.

For some reason, this comic reminds me of those “trick” question puzzles, like:

What word becomes shorter when you add two letters to it? (Short)

I speak without a mouth and hear without ears. I have no body, but I come alive with wind. What am I? (An echo)

How can a man go eight days without sleep? (He sleeps at night)

What has keys but can’t open locks? (A piano)

What has a heart that doesn’t beat? (A deck of cards)

What has a thumb and four fingers but is not alive? (A glove)

What has a face and two hands but no arms or legs? (A clock)

If “y-e-s” spells “yes”, what does “e-y-e-s” spell? (Lots of people won’t get this)

an’ why bother talking face to face when you can talk on the phone?!

“Hey phone, where are you?” Calling her phone.

Just wanted point how unobservant you are.

Find my phone on my watch and my laptop.

Everyone in the path of Milton- stay safe.

That’s me, searching for my glasses which are sitting on top of my head.

We all saw it sitting there, too, but we didn’t say anything because we didn’t want to spoil Ralph’s surprise!!!

Enjoy the couch, Ralph.

Good one, Ralph.
