Sometimes a person’s aptitudes and weaknesses don’t quite mix with the occupation. Take her for instance. She’s got an irrational fear of plastic model airplanes. That may be a good thing, as it keeps her from terrifying young impressionable travelers at the airport gift shop toy shelf.

I’ve got absolutely no idea what the original intent of that photo was, but hey, it makes perfect sense on The Overnight Open Thread.

Remember the old Blogmocracy Rec Room?

I kinda miss it, even though it smelled of cigars, stale beer, cheap perfume mixed with fresh enamel and chlorine bleach wafting in from the restrooms down the hall on the left. There’s something about old aromas that triggers memories of long-gone fun. Remember when we used to play this over and over until we ran out of quarters? Or the time that [someone] threw the cue ball past the intersection on a dare? We had to play games of 14 ball for weeks.

Ahhh, man, those were some fun times on The Overnight Open Thread.

One of the great things about international football tournaments (that’s soccer to you deniers) are the lengths that some fans go to get photos posted on the internet:

A fan cheers during the Club World Cup semi-final soccer match between Brazil’s Internacional and DR Congo’s TP Mazembe at Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi December 14, 2010.

Right. Nothing like putting the threaded axle of a bicycle wheel on your noggin, giving it a spin, and enjoying some self-trepanation while watching a soccer match.  Of course, the bigger payoff is getting your picture posted a month later on The Overnight Open Thread.

Excellent example of nature taking care of itself. This creature is in charge of making sure that the ocean doesn’t back up when it flushes itself periodically.

And speaking of periodically flushing, some of you here have been leaving little presents in the Rec Room restrooms. Please put the seat back up after you’re done peeing on it; and as for the guys, please stop writing “Penis Penis Penis Lol” in lipstick on the mirror. Yeah, it was funny the first time, but it really doesn’t belong on The Overnight Open Thread.
