  1. Running…. 100m at school – hated it, 200m just as bad, 400 are you joking? 800 and 1500 – worse than torture for me. And now I choose to do a 5K race for life charity run each year. Am dead pleased with myself, the kid at school who didnt like sport. Now runs and plays netball – lots!

  3. Looking at the meter, I was confused by the tick marks that defined the percentage I had used my life. I referred to the manual and foundered among the full-color diagrams, but all I could fathom was I was low to a certain degree and needed to expand, like the universe.

  4. meter. reminds me about science, physics, class that i took last year. but it may mean more than that. meter, a measure of time. but against what? allotting an amount of time for life? How is that a way to live…

    Parking meters are indispensible tools for life, but they limit our enjoyment, by pressing on life without really considering, are we getting the right enjoyment out of it?

  5. There’s a tiny man outside the window. He’s about a meter tall and he speaks in rhyme. He tells me that I need to hand him all my gold and pearls before nood tomorrow or it’s the end of the world. I responded that I have none.
    He tooted and said that this bodes unwell, all in a creepy little sing song.

  9. There was a meter rule lying on the ground. Right there. I took a good look at it from afar. It did not look like there was anything unusual. However, I had a gut feeling there was a trap hidden there. I had always trusted my gut feelings. There must be a trap. How could a meter rule be there? Right there? No way.

  12. Iambic meter. The most sensual part of rhyme. Its not the structure but what’s behind it wrote Basho but I think he missed the point. You need skill to play jazz and sometimes you need structure to break it.

  17. i like this game and the word is meter, it is quite interesting that meter can be a measurement used everywhere but the US but it is also a noun, like parking meter, but what ever it is, it always has to do with measurement!

  20. Meters are used in autos in Chennai. Heating them up causes the meter to go faster, so that these guys can charge us more.But that was the old days. Now they never use meters in autos in Chennai.

  21. a meter is a form of measurement. it rhymes with peter. it is composed of five letters, one being repeated. It’s a common word that you don’t realize you hear or see often. It sounds like meater. it also rhymes with eater.

  27. How do you measure your life and your time? there is no meter telling you whether you’ve spent too much time reading or not enough time telling your mom how much you love her. You take everything as it comes and even if you try to plan there’s no knowing if you’ve exacted the right amount of care or diligence or professionalism or friendliness. You just never know.

  28. The meter arrived, a little shorter than she had expected. she might have staid with inches, had she realized this. But the measures did not lie and her life span was indeed getting shorter by the hour.

  31. I dropped the phone.

    It clinked on the grate as it fell through the drain. God! All that for a couple of coins for the parking meter! “Sometimes these meters can cost you a lot more than you’d expect”, I yelled in fury.

  32. It wasn’t far now, only another meter or two and I would have my frosty treat. I stared at the icee longingly. It stared back. I think I heard it say, “I love you” even.

  33. Will 10 meters of rope be enough? And then, I thought, No, he’s a little tubby, about 6’3″. To make him beg and whimper, I needed 20. I love suspension bondage!

  34. 3 goddamnfucking meters, Jack. Why do you have to buy an entire bale of seersucker fabric? I wanted to tailor a jacket for myself. Not start an entire label.

  35. There i stood looking at the parking meter knowing fully well that once i dropped my quarters in the slot i was bound to what lay behind the court doors. Either i would be subject to jail for a false accusation or i would walk out of there a free man.

  36. mETER, IS THAT LIKE THE METRIC SYSTEM OF MEASUREMENTS? yOU KNOW, i THINK AMERICA SHOULD CONVERT TO THE METRIC SYSTEM. aFTERAL, IS A HECK OF A LOT SIMPLER TO USE, YA KNOW? EVERYTHING IS IN TENS1 UNLIKE THE POUNDS AND OUNCES, AND WHATEVER THE HELL ALL WE USE HERE. IT JUST DONESN’T REALLY MAKE SENSE TO USE SOMETHINK THAT YOU HAVE TO SPEND A COUPLE WEEKS OF MEORIZING TO USE WITHOUT A CHART. aS FOR METERS IT’S JUST wham. A CENTIMETER IS 1/100TH OF A METER, AND A KILOMETER IS 1000 METERS. sO YEAH, TOTALLY NEED TO CONVERT TO METRIC SYSTEM. tHEN YOU JUST HAVE TO KNOW THE PREFIXES, BUT ENGLISH OR LITERATURE CLASS PRETTY MUCH COVERS THAT.

    [ Damnit, totally forgot I had my caps lock on. :/ ]

  37. Meter, the strict regiment followed when playing music. In a group. With a conductor. They can be so mean sometimes. And the people around you who don’t accept you going at your own pace or following your own beat. Those metronomes make my ears bleed. Can you tell I used to be a musician?
