Question:
Someone thought I was going for a Christian concert , until I mentioned the band 's name was " Death Cab for Cutie " . Nothing very spiritual about that , although one could beg to differ . The four - piece band started with the first song " Bixby Canyon Bridge " , from their latest album , Narrow Stairs . Their next song was also the first entry " The New Year " from an older 2003 album , Transatlanticism .

What may be a fact about the speaker ?
Answer:
They saw a band they liked play live .

Question:
I was at the local Mega - Shop - And - Save last week when I realized I 'd been asked to whitewash the fence ... metaphorically speaking . Actually I was at the cheerfully - named ( but badly spelled ) " U Check " stand scanning and bagging my own purchases . If I wanted lighthearted small talk while I checked out , I 'd have to supply that myself as well .

What may have been the reason for the poster 's sarcasm ?

She went into a store and was expected to be her own cashier .

I had updating to do and posts to write . And if you know me at all ( which a lot of you do after 4 years on the web ) you know I tried to plug the mouse in again ... and I was defeated . Again .

Question:
Preying over people who work really hard to earn their keep and using scare tactics to get one over . If they only used their time and effort and abilities to good use instead of ripping off , scaring , and endangering the lives of people around them then people like my officemate would n't be shivering like shit right now , scared for herself because the cretin has her address and knows she works here . I know the feeling because DREGS like that guy who mugged her mugged me when I was in college .

What may my officemate become if she was not mugged ?
Answer:
She will be able to do her job without having to look over her shoulders .
