One story is about a control freak roommate. He had a strict schedule for everything in the apartment. He color - coded the dishes and would get really mad if anyone put a blue plate where a green plate was supposed to go. It was funny because it was such a minor thing to be so controlling about.
Sure. There was a control freak in a book club. She decided the order in which everyone should talk about the book. If someone interrupted or spoke out of turn, she would glare at them and make a big fuss. It was like she thought she was the only one who could manage the conversation properly.
Well, it's possible. Sometimes characters with similar traits or names show up in different comic series. But you'd need to do some research to find a direct equivalent for 'Control Freak'.
Once, a man was walking his dog. The dog suddenly saw a squirrel and darted after it. The leash wrapped around the man's legs and he tripped right into a fountain. He came out all wet and the dog just sat there looking at him, as if it was proud of its little 'accident'.
Well, once my friend was using the pill for birth control. One day, she accidentally took two pills thinking she missed one from the day before, but she hadn't. She panicked a bit, called the doctor, and the doctor just laughed and said it was okay as long as she didn't make it a habit. It was quite a comical moment for her.
Sure. At a pool party, a man was trying to do a big cannonball jump into the pool. He misjudged the distance and instead of landing in the water, he hit the edge of the pool with his stomach. It made a huge splash but also left him with a big red mark. Everyone at the party was shocked at first and then burst into laughter.
Here's one. A student had a habit of checking his phone every few minutes. During an important exam, he felt the urge to look at his phone which was in his bag. But he knew it was against the rules and he had to control himself. He kept repeating in his head that he needed to focus on the exam. So he gripped his pen tightly and forced himself to keep his eyes on the paper. In the end, he did well in the exam thanks to his self - control.
There's this story where an air traffic controller was dealing with a very chatty pilot. The pilot was talking about his vacation plans while waiting for clearance. The controller finally said, 'Sir, we can talk about Hawaii later, right now we need to focus on getting you in the air.' Another funny incident was when a plane's transponder was malfunctioning. The air traffic controller said, 'You're like a ghost plane right now.' And the pilot responded, 'Am I spooky enough to get a fast lane to land?' These kinds of stories add a bit of fun to the serious world of air traffic control.
I heard about a situation where a family had a squirrel problem in their attic. They called a pest control service. When the guy arrived, the squirrel peeked out of a hole as if it was curious. The pest control guy tried to coax it out with some nuts. Eventually, the squirrel came out, grabbed the nuts, and ran off, much to everyone's amusement. The family then decided to just wait and see if the squirrel would stay away on its own.
There was a freak story about a cat that seemed to predict when it was going to rain. Every time it would hide under the porch a few hours before a storm, even when the weather forecast was wrong. It was really strange as if the cat had some sort of sixth sense for the weather.
