As everyone does, I receive a lot of email forwards. Some are more memorable than others. Some are systematically forwarded to selected groups of friends based on the content and my urge to spread a little humour, but usually not inspiration and never for "good luck". Regardless, most of them are forgotten a few seconds after I hit the send button. One forward that I received about 8 years ago has always stuck with me. It was a collection of pictures from the airline safety cards with captions added. The captions actually make way more sense according to the photos than the airline intended. It plays into my goofy sarcasm and I have never been able to look at those information cards the same. I was thinking about this email the other day and found a whole website of them by a guy who claims that he is the originator of the idea. Who knows if he is because I also found a few other knock-offs, but this one is my favorite.

Clearly good advice on the ground OR in the air!
I can't decide what my favorite part of that photo is...his sexy lean-in move, or her practical pumps counter balancing the rockin' shoulder pads. Either way, it's hysterical.
ReplyDeleteI remember this email forward going around. I first saw it about the time Fight Club came out and I desperately wanted to pull off a similar switcheroo of all the cards on at least one plane :)
