Tales from the Library

So, there are weird things that happen at the library where I work and you hear some of the most obscure things as well. As of yesterday, I decided that I would write some of these things down and tell you some of them.

The first is about a little boy. He couldn’t have been older than 2nd or 3rd grade. Anyways, he was with this guy who was like his “Big Brother” in a sense. Kind of like one of those people that helps the child out when there’s issues at home or at school. So, I guess this kind was thrown up against a wall by another student and was hit in the face by this same bully. What does this other kid do? He hits him back in self-defense. Well, the school REALLY didn’t like this and this kid was given more punishment than the one that started the fight. So, they’re at the library reading this book that was explaining that it’s wrong and disrespectful to hurt ANYONE. Whether it’s self-defense or not. THAT IS CRAP! When I was in 7th grade, there was a kid that decided it would be fun to beat up my back. I went home and my back was hurting pretty bad. So, the next day, he decided to start doing it again. That’s when I tried running away. The downside to running away was we were in the locker room and he was one of those prep guys that has everyone on their side. So, he starts walking towards me and hit my back so I punched him twice in the face. We were both sent to the Dean’s office and they tried to give me more punishment because I defended myself and didn’t handle it the way they wanted me to. To the people that think this way, I want you to do me a favor. I want you to put your hand vertically in front of your face so you’re staring at the palm. Then, look to your left and SLAP YOURSELF UPSIDE THE HEAD! Why? For being an idiot.

Okay, so the next thing was this woman who decided she needed to talk louder than necessary on the phone. She was going on about how her daughter married this guy who’s a pastor. Anyways, so this woman is complaining about how she doesn’t EVER want to bible bash at all. In my head, I’m thinking she’s a little nuts for that but oh well. So, she explaining that this son-in-law of hers is a total jerk because he thinks that if someone files for divorce for a reason other than adultry, they’re going to be an adulterer if they marry again. Personally, I would have to agree with the son-in-law. However, the only way I wouldn’t is if the person being pulled into the divorce can’t stop it or have any say. Anyways, this woman needs to look at the palm of her hand as well.

And lastly, this one is a little more…interesting. There was another kid that was with his “Big Brother” and he was talking about a test he had taken earlier that day. He was saying “we” when referring to himself. After they finished talking he was saying how “we” were excited to go play on the computers downstairs. That’s going to be an interesting mind
