Not so much weird, but it's weird that it's simultaneously hilarious and day-ruiningly depressing.
I saw a little bowl with small jewelry in it like charms and earrings. Among them was the right half of a heart that read "FRIENDS" and just below that was "EVER". I'm 100% certain that there exists somewhere the left half of that heart that reads "BEST" and "FOR" with identical formatting, and that friendship either ended dramatically or fizzled out over time.
It made me think about some previous close friendships I've had and how people can either just grow apart or have a violent falling out. And I wondered who in their right mind would buy just half of that best friends forever charm. Why would a thrift shop even have that available?
Kinda fascinating that an entire coming of age story can be told by just half of a piece of jewelry I found at a thrift store, and I'll never know the truth, yet I'll never forget it.
anyone who would like to joke with their depression. I can imagine doing that.
now I actually want something like this
