Saw a horrible accident on the freeway / Noticed the vehicle death count go up by 1 on an electronic billboard
A Awkward Seal post.
The plumber rings to confirm Thursday. You end the call with "love you, bye". There's a pause. He says "you too". Neither of you will ever mention this. Film night with your parents. You picked it. You forgot about that scene. Your dad becomes extremely interested in the batteries in the remote. Six floors in the lift with a colleague who is on the phone describing a rash in great detail. You study the inspection certificate. You read it twice. The hosts of the dinner party start arguing in the kitchen in hissed whispers. You and the other guests look at the bread basket with tremendous focus. **Why it caught on:** a young northern elephant seal caught looking sideways at the camera, eyes wide and mouth tight. It's the face of someone who has heard something they shouldn't have, which is most of us at least once a week.
