Underrated Things

things that people forget about, overlook, or dont give enough credit to:

staplers- how else would we hold our papers together? tape? paperclips? no, nothing works as good as the stapler. people forget about them, you know?

flowers- people write flowers off as 'little girl' items, but honestly, flowers are pretty! and they smell good! just go out in the garden or wherever and pick a bouquet and you will see.

sandwiches- while the rest of the world is off marveling about the glories of sliced bread, most people forget about its most common use: the sandwich. did you know it was invented by a british dude who didnt want to eat his spaghetti with his hands? yeah so next time youre enjoying a nice turkey and cheese or pb and j or whatever, remember to mentally thank the guy who put his pasta between two slices of bread.

digital clocks- it is because of them that i dont know how to read a regular clock without thinking about it first. but honestly, it's much easier to just see the numbers right in front of you instead of counting by fives and getting confused. whoever thought of the digital clock, i salute you.

scarves- besides being a slightly overused fashion statement, they keep your neck warm. nuff said.

black bears- people are like, save the polar bears, look at the cute panda bear, omg its a ferocious grizzly bear, and they all forget about the equally cute, endangered, frightening black bear. just saying. plus theyre native to minnesota.

the axle- okay everyones always like, the greatest invention on earth is the wheel, but remember, without the axle, the wheel would just roll every which way and we couldn't attach to stuff and it would be useless. so remember to include the axle in all of your wheel-worshipping and whatnot.

classical music- theres tons of good music genres out there. we know this. but dont forget about classical music. because it's good too. it is. just listen to it. it's especially fun to play. on the piano. or in BAND.

macaroni and cheese- the food of our childhood. and that we still eat. because it's yummy.

kleenexes- before kleenexes, people blew their noses on a dirty pieces of cloth that they kept in their pocket. over and over. all day. the same piece of cloth. it's called......... a hanky.

other stuff that im too lazy to think of right now. anyway. the point of this post is sometimes you should look around and think about all the stuff you take for granted and be like whoa. what would i do without this? or what would the world be like without this? (because in the case of the black bear, what would you do without it? you would continue your life. but whatever. try to understand where im going.) so just, think about stuff sometimes. and dont take stuff for granted. which i do a lot. like, look at my school. it's so nice. people in africa dont have that. (i had this discussion with jennifer) so just uhhhhhhhhhh yeah. that's it i guess. i had more to say but it escaped me so uhh bye
