I was watching This Week With John Oliver a few years back. If you have watched the show, you know that they end the show with "And Now..."- they usually feature something that’s sort of quirky or weird or somehow just ridiculous. On this specific episode, he featured a train that was part of a Scranton, PA weather report every evening on their local news. The train ran in the background, and people either loved it or hated it.
People would call in and talk about how much they liked the train, or how stupid they thought it was. One guy called in and said the trolley was in the wrong place. Another guy called in, in response to that guy, that the engineer can put the trolley anywhere he wants to and “Shut up and go do your supper dishes!”. I laughed SO hard at that, for some reason, and of course… I had to make that into a cross stitch pattern.
The trains are from Makoto’s Mini Cross Stitch book. It’s hanging in our kitchen (which is no longer green).
The trains are from another Makoto Oozu book.
Here is a link if you want to watch a clip. It’s really funny. People are so weird. The quote that I stitched happens around 58 seconds in, but the entire clip is worth watching.
