Did you ever ride in an elevator that was crowded, then somebody, who smells like they haven't taken a shower in days, or hasn't done their laundry in months, rides along? Happened to me a couple of times. I remember one instance around 1985, when I took my girlfriend back then out to lunch at a restaurant that was located on the top floor of the tallest building in Phoenix (The Golden Eagle Restaurant) There was also some sort of a project going on in one of the lower floors, and two of the workers missed the utility elevator, so somebody that was riding in the elevator we were in asked them to come along. That was a mistake! One of those workers wreaked with BO! I forgot exactly which floor they were going to, but the elevator made 3 or 4 stops to let off other passengers, before they got off on the floor they wanted to be on. The rest of us didn't say anything, we all just looked at each other. When my girlfriend and I reached the top floor, it was like seeing sunshine after weeks of heavy rain!

Did you ever start passing some cars only to find out that it was a funeral,omg I stopped and turned around and went the other way!

Oh, my goodness!, but yes!, I am guilty of both of these. As a young woman, I would often walk in my sleep, and one morning my husband heard me get up, take a few steps, and get quiet.
For some reason, he knew, and came flying out of the bathroom to stop me in time. I had sat on a chair in the bedroom with my gown hiked-up, thinking I was on the toilet.
I didn't pass a line of cars in a funeral procession, but I was on the other side of the road, driving along, and wondering where all the traffic on my side was -- they had pulled over. I was so embarrassed, thinking they would decide I was a hopelessly rude nincompoop.
Have you ever been in the stall in a Ladies Room, hear someone walk in, and then look beside you to see a pair of men's shoes in the stall next to you? I was in a bar, and just excused the fellow, thinking he had had one too many, but I got out of there as quickly as I could. Some time later, I caught myself looking at all of the men's shoes in the place.

With a mouth like mine, what would you guess?
My poor daughter grew up prefacing things with, "Now, Mom, before you get mad, let me explain. . ."
Have you gotten to the point now, where you realize not all of what your parents told you was exactly 'stupid?'

Did you ever? I was asked if I actually threw a Sprite in a crowded theatre. Not yet. But I will the next time someone answers their cell phone during a flick.
There is something I did do in a crowded theatre before that I should NOT be proud of. Heck, I was only 5 at the time and I did it on a dare. Bare  ) in mind, this was back in the very early 70's and before the time of PCness;
Did you ever...walk down to the front of the theatre and moon the whole crowd?

Now, McGowDog, I just wanna know one thing -- how, as an innocent little five-year-old did you even know what 'mooning' somebody was? I'd like to slap yo Mamma.
Did you ever hear 'grown-up' talk, and wonder what-the-heck? but knew you better not ask? I remember my sweet little old grandmother saying something once about somebody being in the closet, and I thought there had been a murder in the family.
