Me: Maybe he never actually came by and he just said no one was there. The mail people do that sometimes. If they have a package and they don't feel like climbing the stairs they'll just assume no one's home and they leave the slip in the mailbox.
Mgmt: What?? They do that?? Wow. You've really opened my eyes...

@jeanne i didn’t even read this, i’m just dedicating it to you
Man, God in the Old Testament is my kinda guy.
mykicks:
He gets grossed out by his creation, floods the world to destroy everyone, feels kinda bad about it and sends a rainbow and says that he won’t destroy civilization BY FLOOD again.
Like, “Just gonna give myself an out here in case I wanna destroy the world again…”

Do you ever feel like someone doesn’t want to be friends with you anymore? They don’t have to say anything, you just know.
