Friday Funnies

Most days, you never know what you'll see on Main Street in downtown Nashua, NH. This guy was spotted last week when we went out for breakfast.
Yes, this guy is holding a laptop while walking and talking through a headset. He was definitely multi-tasking and doing business on the run walk.

Enjoy Your Weekend, Everyone
We're taking a local day trip; details next week

Whodathunkit!

There used to be a guy around here who would go for a walk with a book, reading as he went.

OMG, that photo capture was brilliant. And very funny!

And you're right, living in downtown (city) environments, you see all kinds of strange things. One time I passed a woman on the street who was walking towards me, holding an opened book; turning the pages, and reading them. She never once looked ahead to see where she was walking, or if anyone might be in her way. Her only concern was reading her book while walking. LOL!

Have a great week, my friend! Thanks for the Friday funny!

He must be a whole lot better coordinated than I am!

Well this is certainly a shocker! I have seen millions of people walking with their head tucked down and things in their ears but they're tapping on a phone not a laptop. My first-ever viewing of someone walking and using a laptop

Walking with a laptop! Now that's definitely different.

Vee said...

That's a new one to me...iPhone yes; laptop...hmmm...

Doris said...

that had to be most uncomfortable!!

Beatrice, Love this guy! I wonder if he appreciates his surroundings? When I lived in Chicago and drove downtown every day, I saw a lot of weird behavior in cars around me. Reading the paper, putting on make up, shaving and more. Folks are disconnected from their environment and they are a danger to themselves (your walker) and to others (my drivers) Stay Safe and Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

Definitely multi tasking.

Ridiculous!

I have never seen anyone walking with a laptop! I am not that coordinated!!! My multitasking would turn into something quite disastrous.

Edna B said...

Wow! Such a talented guy! I could never do that. Not that I would want to do it. You have a great eye for super snapshots. Enjoy your day, hugs, Edna B.

Connie said...

Haha! Nothing like multitasking to get the job(s) done!

An accident waiting to happen.

Bill said...

He's got his hands full and is not paying attention to where he's headed. Great funny capture.

I'm afraid I can't see the funny part here, as I'm concerned with the danger both for this guy and the people on the street he might bump into and hurt them.
One should be banned from performing any tasks on the street, except that of walking or standing and talking to another person.

Honestly Beatrice, I do find humour in that photo, but kind of in a mocking way lol...that is so much worse than people glued to their phones!!!

I can not do that any more. I maybe can boil water and pour oatmeal in bowls at the same time.

I guess he had a lot on his plate. Seeing I just wrote the comment about blogging, maybe he has lots of blogs to catch up on. (OK, me trying to be funny). Hugs-Erika

I just found your blog. I like your Friday Funnies. It's great to see how other people are doing and making it through Covid-19 in other parts of the US. Stay safe.
