Something Fun to Do

Next time you're on the subway or a sunny bench in a lovely little park, I suggest that you and an accomplice complete this next task for the joy of being awkward. Here I have a step-by-step manual for you:

One: Find a fellow or a lady who is reading something engrossing (i.e. someone distracted by a literary work of some sort). Have your accomplice record the ensuing events.

Two: Walk up to your chosen victim.

Three: Sit or stand near your victim.

Four: Commence to read over the victim's shoulder until they notice you.

Five: When your victim discovers you hovering over his/her shoulder, ask your victim what book s/he is reading.

Six: Upon hearing the answer, say "I'm sorry, I have a waffle in my ear."

Seven: Walk away.

I assure you, this task will bring great joy to you and your accomplice. Share your findings and laugh. I hope your day will be a tad brighter.
