Thread: How did I not realize that?

    How did I not realize that?

    You know that classic "grandpa had it worse than you, I had to walk in the snow uphill both ways!"


    I never thought about it, and I always assumed it was meant as a joke. Why would you have to walk uphill both ways?

    But now I just realized, the destination was on the otherside of a hill, and it now all makes sense.
    Am I alone here? Is that it?
    Am I the only one who sees.

    Maybe we can learn to be just like him.
    Wear a little uniform.
    Yes, sir.
    No, sir.
    Thank you, sir.

    maybe you always assumed that grandpa was full of shit so you never really thought about it before.
