Can we talk about emojis? They're like the hieroglyphics of the digital age. I spend more time trying to decode emojis than I do reading Shakespeare. I sent a text to my friend the other day, pouring my heart out about a bad day. I get a response, and it's just an emoji. Not a sympathetic word or a comforting phrase—just an emoji. I'm staring at this tiny picture, trying to figure out if it's a hug or a high-five. It's like a modern-day Rorschach test.
And don't get me started on the eggplant emoji. I accidentally used it in a conversation about gardening, and now my neighbor thinks I'm into some weird vegetable fetish. Thanks, emoji keyboard, for turning me into the neighborhood oddball.

You ever notice how English can be like the Bermuda Triangle of languages? I mean, I'm convinced that half the time people are just nodding along, pretending they know what the heck you're saying. I was in a foreign country recently, trying to order something to eat. I wanted to play it safe, so I pointed to the menu and confidently said, "I'll have the, uh, anchoring script in English, please." The waiter looked at me like I just ordered a unicorn steak. I realized, in that moment, I had become the international ambassador for lost-in-translation moments.
So, there I am, attempting to mime my way through an order. I'm doing these weird gestures, trying to communicate the concept of a burger without using words. I must've looked like a mime having an existential crisis. Finally, the waiter gets it, and I get my meal. But I can't help but wonder if they're still telling stories about the confused foreigner who wanted an anchoring script in English.

Let's talk about the gym. I recently signed up for a gym membership, thinking it would change my life. Spoiler alert: it hasn't. The only six-pack I've developed is in my fridge. You walk into the gym, and there's always that one person who's in better shape than the fitness equipment itself. I swear, they're doing acrobatics on the treadmill while I'm struggling to find the "start" button.
And then there are the personal trainers. They're like drill sergeants with a clipboard. One of them came up to me and asked, "What's your fitness goal?" I panicked and said, "To not pass out during this conversation." They say no pain, no gain, but I'm pretty sure they mean no pain, no pain.

Can we talk about technology for a second? I mean, Siri and I have a love-hate relationship. I asked Siri for relationship advice once, and she responds with, "I'm sorry, I didn't quite get that." No kidding, Siri! Neither do I! I thought technology was supposed to make our lives easier. But now, we're all walking around talking to our phones like they're our therapists. "Siri, why do I always eat a whole tub of ice cream after a breakup?" And Siri's like, "I found some ice cream parlors near you." Thanks, Siri, but that's not what I needed.
I'm just waiting for Siri to start charging me by the hour for these therapy sessions. I can see it now: "You have exceeded your emotional baggage limit for the month. Please upgrade to Siri Pro for unlimited counseling.
