#Maydays Prompt – Something Stupid

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye.”
― Jim Henson

Facepalm statue

For today’s #maydays prompt time for a bit of humour. We’ve all had that friend (or been that friend!) who has drunkenly declared someone (usually sober) to be the most gorgeous person they have ever seen. The situation may be cringeworthy, funny or even painful if they end up with a slap. It’s over to you may you remember/discover/imagine someone doing something stupid that they later realise wasn’t the best idea. Double points if you make us laugh!

I may not have gone where I intended to - Douglas Adams - Jetty

 

For today’s #maydays prompt, I couldn’t help sneak in a little Douglas Adams and it was great looking through the holiday albums for a photo to fit it too! This pic is off a lovely little jetty in Sardinia for those interested, one of those photos that my husband scoffed at me for taking while I hung precariously from a wonky walkway, but I knew it would be useful one day, hopefully, it may inspire you :). Anyway, enough rambling (although that may feature) today’s prompt is about a journey. Physical, Spiritual, Emotional, you may decide. 🙂
