On life's many imperfections: Was it aliens?

​Today as I drove home from the gym after my self-imposed water therapy session with all the senior citizens, otherwise known as walking against a current in a circle (because I’m cool like that), I saw something peculiar on the road.
 
I immediately noticed the spanking new pop of mustard yellow paint separating the right side of the road from the left. Normal. After about 200 feet, however, I glimpsed a slash of tire tracks imprinted with that brand new paint, swerving a bit and then fading away.

​Perhaps I am cruel or simply easily amused, but I thought it was so funny. Have you ever seen anything like this? I sure haven’t.
 
We’re so used to seeing perfect lines, perfect order, that this is something I never expected.
 
So, what happened?

---

I have some theories.

1. The painters did not properly block off the road and a gung-ho teenager went to town.
2. The head painter looked away for a minute, and his bozo colleague, the junior painter, backed his truck into the paint.
3. A toddler drove her Barbie Jeep across the paint line.
4. The painters deliberately sabotaged their own work in order to get paid again for doing the same job.
5. Aliens. It was aliens.

​​Why do I feel the need to explain this situation to myself? It doesn’t really affect anyone. It’s still very clear where the middle of the road is. No harm, no foul.
 
I think perhaps the main reason why I find this little blip on the radar of a Wednesday morning so intriguing is that perfection is b-o-r-i-n-g.
 
Isn’t it so much more interesting to find a lone curly fry in your french fries, an unidentified animal print in your sidewalk, or a hot pink sharpie in your stash of regular old pens? That’s my opinion, anyway.
 
What little imperfections in life make you smile? Please, do tell.
