The Interweb

So I was at the courthouse about a month ago, riding up with these middle-aged women. It's raining outside and one of the women is complaining about the rain. So the other woman says to her friend, and indirectly to the six other people in the elevator, "A wise person once told me that without rain, there would never be any rainbows." It got eerily silent after this statement. Luckily, I was in front and so they couldn't see my smirk. You could tell that the complaining woman even thought it was a weird thing to say. I mean, there's really no other way to say it, but it was a pretty gay quote to share. I wouldn't even expect LeVar Burton to say that, and he had a whole show about rainbows.

Anyway, so I left the elevator and decided to post it on facebook as a joke. My only precursor to the quote was that it was the quote of the day, and then posted the quote. A RT (retweet) of sorts. Quick side note. Recently, I've been having this influx of people trying to add me on facebook. From long lost relatives to old people from my ward growing up. So one of these people, who I have never met but was guilted into adding because she said that we're related, responded to my post simply by stating, "Like it!" Great. Now it looks to everyone else that I am somehow endorsing this odd statement. And I can't say that I don't like it, because she obviously does and I don't want to offend some relative. In essence, the joke was ruined. So I just want to set the record straight by saying that I have no official position regarding rainbows.
