I am a: Quirky sysadmin. Geek. Gamer. Comic fangirl. My little space, my home on the interwebs. I blog about personal stuffs, work, various coding projects, and anything else I feel like.

Jessie came up to me and asked what “off the wall meant” … I asked her if she knew what random meant. She says, “Yeah, that’s like when it’s anything or could be anything in the whole world — like on my Bop-It game!” (I love her definitions, lol)

I said, “Anything ‘off the wall’ means something odd or different, even random, in a collection that doesn’t seem like it belongs or matches the rest. Or it could be something that just seems to come out of nowhere.”

She ponders for a minute and says, “Ok say something ‘off the wall’ to me!”

I looked at her and said, “I wonder what it’d be like to drive a tank.”

“Huh!?”

I grinned and said, “I wonder if presentation folder printing is cheap?”

I’m greeted with another “WTF is she talking about?” look and I laughed. At this point Jessie says, “That’s not making any sense!”

“Exactly, which is why those were ‘off the wall’.”

I could see the light bulb flicker on. “Ooooooooooh! That’s just weird. *pauses thoughtfully* Can I watch a movie?”

:lol:
