one of the kids i teach is 11 and has downs syndrome
At a recent assembly he got called to the front where the head presented him with a medal he had won in a cycling race.

I was really pleased for him and when I saw him in the corridor later that day I stopped to chat with him.

I asked him what kind of bike he used, whether it was a mountain bike, road bike or bmx.

He stopped looking at me, instead staring over my shoulder into the distance. His smile disappeared and a far away wistful look appeared on his face and he replied with a line that convinced me he is the most awesome human being who ever lived.

"I don't know. I just ride."

Then the smile returned and he waved cheery-o as he trotted off to maths.

Pretty random. Very cool!

Probably doesn't meet the requirements for this weeks answers but I feel justified in not giving a Fuck.

Very zen.
Nice. I like it. It's the same reason I'd like to get "SMILE!" tattooed on the inside of my right index finger. I am become photography.

One of our office cleaners had this habit...
...of looking over your shoulder and saying "It's all space... everything comes down from outer space..."

He didn't last long

Awesome. He's clearly some sort of deity.
Would it be creepy if I set up a cult and worshipped him?
