So I was just watching Netflix, trying to chill, when I noticed movement out the corner of my eye.

Yada yada, two minutes later, I was vacuuming up several hundred baby spiders.

With friends chilling outside on a nice day. One friend decides to go to a set of trees.

Suddenly we're running from a swarm of hornets

I started the morning making myself some eggs benedict.

I ended the morning pulling out shards of glass out of my hand.

Climbing trees as a kid with a friend who then started bouncing on his branch.

Not long later I was knocking on his door telling his father something happened.

...and that's how in 2007 Tom Baker of Doctor Who fame promised to tell me how having his shoes on the wrong way around led to him meeting his first wife.

I'm still waiting.

2007. Went to a party with a friend at his brother and the brother's girlfriend's place. Yada yada. A week later the friend told me we could no longer be friends and the brother's gf had moved out.

On a nice Monday in June a few years ago, I was happily on my way, driving to a family golf outing. Yada yada yada, I was discharged from the hospital about an hour after the ambulance brought me there.

I was removing a bay window, one thing led to another and I wouldn't touch rice for months afterwards.

I'll be surprised if someone can figure out the details of that story...

When we finally caught up to him, he's brushing the snow off, has a busted lip, and he says "I'm doing that again!"

So, this one time the brakes on my car died and, long story short, the police ended up checking my apartment while I was at work to see if there were any bodies or anything.

Bet my friend that the stairs in the hotel were quicker than the elevator to get to our hotel room. One thing leads to another and I'm sitting in the house of an Italian doctor getting five stitches in my head

First thing that came to mind: Did you find a massive maggot deposit when you removed the window?

...So anyway once I came to, the doctor informed me that luckily I would be keeping both of my testicles after all.

A girl approached me at a music festival, blah blah blah, anyway I left her hotel room at 5am because her dealer/roommate/friend/boyfriend???? (who had survived a literal strike of lightning) did whippets non-stop all night long and I couldn't get any sleep.

Something that's funny I'm noticing is that a lot of these sound like how the starts of books/the starts of chapters are written. Good leads

I missed the August 23rd, 2011 earthquake on the East Coast because I was, funnily enough, on the West Coast.

My kid turns 10 in July.

One night I parked my car in my garage, closed the garage door and yadda yadda later had to explain the rather unfriendly policemen why I preferred to enter my flat through the tilted bedroom window.
