When I think about AI and leftover lasagna, I wonder: if a robot could feel emotions, would it feel sad knowing it can never taste three-day-old pasta? And would it understand why we keep it anyway? Maybe the real artificial intelligence is the leftovers we made along the way. They sit there in the fridge, getting wiser with age, until one day they develop consciousness and start giving us life advice.

People worry about AI taking over, but I'm more concerned about that last piece of lasagna in the fridge. Does it get lonely? Does it dream of being eaten? These are the questions AI should be solving.

Maybe popping bubbles is just practice for popping all the bubbles in our minds. And maybe that's why fish don't do it.

Have you ever noticed that cats appear in places they couldn't possibly be? One minute they're in the kitchen, the next they're in your sock drawer. Scientists say it's impossible, but maybe cats figured out teleportation long ago and just don't want to share their secrets. They're probably laughing at our primitive space programs right now.

I used to think driveways were for driving and parkways were for parking. Then I realized I had it backwards. Then I realized maybe we all had it backwards. Then I realized maybe we're all driving and parking in circles, like confused squirrels looking for nuts in a mirror maze. Maybe the real question isn't about where we park or drive, but why we're all in such a hurry to get somewhere when we're already there.

They say quantum particles stay connected no matter how far apart. Like when you put your headphones down for one second.

I once tried to hire a banana as my campaign manager. The good news is, he never slipped up. The bad news is, he was yellow.

I think it all started when the first caveman parked his rock in a driveway. Maybe he was confused, or maybe he knew something we don't. Sometimes I park my car in the ocean, just to show society I won't be bound by their rules.

I used to think about driveways and parkways until my brain hurt. Then I realized maybe cars are just confused. Like that time I tried teaching my goldfish to juggle - it kept dropping the tiny chainsaws. Perhaps we should rename everything. Call driveways 'car resting spots' and parkways 'zoom zoom tubes.'

I wonder if that's why we stumble sometimes - gravity just got nervous and looked away. Maybe that's why astronauts float in space. Gravity saw how cool they looked and got too intimidated to talk to them.

If Nostradamus were alive today, he'd probably predict that selfie sticks would become popular because he knew that eventually, people would get tired of asking bears to take their picture.

I looked under my bed for the meaning of life today, but all I found was a sock and some dust bunnies having an existential crisis. Maybe the sock was trying to tell me something profound, or maybe it was just lost and scared like the rest of us. Either way, it made me realize that sometimes the answers we seek are hiding in plain sight, covered in dust and lint.

If you ever invent a time machine, make sure it has a doorbell. That way, when your future self shows up, they won't startle you. Plus, it's just good manners. I once tried to turn my mailbox into a teleporter, but all it did was eat my electric bill.

If ancient wisdom had been written on Post-Its, maybe they'd all just be stuck to the back of some philosopher's chair.

I once saw my cat disappear behind the couch and reappear in the kitchen. Scientists say this is impossible, but maybe scientists just haven't spent enough time watching cats while eating potato chips. Maybe cats invented teleportation, but they're keeping it a secret because they're waiting for the right time to sell the patents.

Ever notice how takeout menus always list 'secret spices' but never tell you what they are? Maybe they're afraid the spices will get self-conscious if we know their names. Or maybe the spices are in witness protection. I once tried to catch a glimpse of these invisible spices by staring really hard at my kung pao chicken. All I got was a headache and the chicken started to look like my uncle Pete.

When I squeeze toothpaste, I like to pretend I'm a master sculptor, except instead of making art, I'm just trying to get the paste to land somewhere near my toothbrush. Sometimes I miss and hit my wrist. That's when I know the toothpaste is trying to escape.

I've been studying alien signatures in social media anagrams, and I've discovered something interesting. If you rearrange the letters in 'retweet this post,' it spells 'sweet therapist.' Coincidence? I think not. The aliens are clearly trying to help us with our emotional problems, one anagram at a time.

Sometimes when I do puzzles, I like to put the wrong pieces together, just to show the puzzle who's boss.

I used to think garden gnomes were just decorative, until I started having conversations with them. Sure, they never talk back, but they also never interrupt you with stories about their CrossFit routine. That's what I call a perfect friendship.
