Lunchroom folklore

[moon_custafer]

Today’s debate was over whether miscarriages are caused by ghosts or by curses. Eventually this led to someone arguing from the Bible that there’s no such thing as ghosts (i.e., souls are not permitted to walk the earth after death), and someone in pro-ghost faction told not to take the book so literally.

I don’t know if my own life is normal or weird by comparison.

OK, today the lunchtime talk at one point turned to the web as information source, and someone said “Yeah, you can even find a video showing you how to insert a catheter.” Everyone looked at her, wondering why she’d need to know this. “Well, I saw an ad for portable catheters on tv, and they said you could send away for free samples. But I wondered why I’d need one.”

“That’s like, a medical device, for people who have kidney problems and stuff.”

“I thought it’d be really useful for when you go camping.”
