You know, journalists at social events are like human surveillance cameras. They're everywhere, and you can't escape their watchful eyes. You could be at a party, trying to enjoy yourself, and suddenly you're in the spotlight.
"Excuse me, sir, can you confirm or deny reports that you were doing the Macarena at 2 AM?"
And I'm like, "Well, I can neither confirm nor deny, but I can assure you my dance moves are strictly confidential!"
It's like they have this uncanny ability to turn any social gathering into a press conference. Next thing you know, they're asking for your official statement on why you chose the spinach dip over the artichoke.
Have you ever read an article where journalists manage to overanalyze the simplest things? I swear, they can turn a cat stuck in a tree into a philosophical debate.
"Breaking News: Feline Existential Crisis Unfolds in Local Oak Tree."
I mean, come on! The cat's just stuck up there, probably regretting one of its life choices. But no, according to the article, it's contemplating the meaning of existence.
"Mr. Whiskers, seen here questioning the very fabric of reality, or perhaps just wondering how he ended up in a tree again."
And I'm thinking, "Can't we just get a ladder and rescue the poor thing? We don't need a 500-word think piece on the cat's journey to self-discovery!
Journalists love their breaking news alerts. I mean, they could be reporting on the most trivial things, and it's treated like the apocalypse is upon us.
"Breaking News: Local Man Discovers Left Sock Missing. The Nation Holds Its Breath."
And I'm sitting there thinking, "Yeah, I'm concerned about my sock too, but I didn't realize it was a national emergency!"
I love how they add that sense of urgency to everything. It's like they're trying to make us believe that every piece of news is as crucial as the survival of the human race. Can we just have a breaking news alert for genuinely important stuff and spare us the drama for the missing socks?
You ever notice how journalists have this incredible talent for turning a simple "How are you?" into a full-blown interrogation? I mean, seriously, they could be asking about the weather, and suddenly it feels like you're on trial.
"Excuse me, sir, could you comment on the unusually high precipitation today?"
And I'm standing there like, "Well, I was just hoping my umbrella would hold up, but now I feel like I need a lawyer!"
It's like they've got this sixth sense for sniffing out drama. You could be having the most mundane day, and a journalist shows up with a microphone, ready to turn your trip to the grocery store into breaking news.
"Ma'am, we heard reports that you purchased two-ply toilet paper. Care to comment on that decision?"
And I'm like, "Well, I wanted a soft landing, but now I'm wondering if I need witness protection!
