Today, I was at the back door of a grocery store that also acts as a bottle redemption center. The sign on the door says "No redemption on Sundays". It made me think a bit and while pointing at the sign, I mentioned to the young man who was helping me that it was a little ironic as lots of people look for redemption in church on this day of the week. Without batting an eye he told me how busy the store was on Sundays and they couldn't possibly find time or the necessary staff to receive bottles. Now maybe it's just my offbeat sense of humor or perhaps the guy isn't too church going or something else, but I thought I'd share this moment with you.
LOL!!! That's very clever; thank you for sharing! I would have gotten that immediately. Maybe he was just in "zombie worker" mode?!
My contribution:
My daughter caught our kitten dragging a banana peel out of the trash the other day. She picked up the cat and said, "Ariel! What are you doing?! That doesn't even look at all appealing!!!" and I burst out laughing, because it was completely unintentional.
I was in the store with my one year old niece not to long ago looking over flatware. Just for fun, I thought I'd show my niece the flatware and ask her opinions on it as if she were an adult, and just as I was showing her a set and stating 'I don't know hon' this place setting doesn't really suit my more contemporary taste, what do you think?', to which she responded with a an incomprehensible gurgle, someone rounding the corner and looked at me as if I were insane thinking I was actually having a serious discussion about flatware with a one year old child sucking her thumb. Sheesh people, I was joking around, the kid was just happy I was talking to her and showing her shiny things, and I found some humor in the absurdity of talking to a baby about product design.
I busted out laughing at work.
Everyone around me looked at me like I was crazy. You're right though, I did have to read it a second time before I got it.. and when I did.. I thought it was hilarious. I am easily amused.
While living with my ma in Phoenix, she'd go into the gas station and i would pump the gas and be done, so i'd go into the gas-station with her as she was standing in line. (keep in mind i was working on a car that day so i was greasy and dirty at the same time) So while standing in line, my ma would say to me..."Scram, now i told you i have no spare change!!...". Everyone in the gas-station would look at me as though i am harrasing everyone for spare-change. It was quite da*n funny though, i have to hand it for my ma!
Okay, first of all my husband's clever analogy of women is as follows: He calls me his straw because women suck the life out of men! Of course, it's a joke (but I can't really argue that, we are pretty bossy). Anyway, my husband was mad at me one day for something and we were having a comical argument in front of some friends. I don't remember what I said but he turned around and yelled at me "Why don't you just suck the life right out of me, then I'll be dead and you can live like one of those black spiders that eat their mate and live all alone....you know which ones I mean!!!!!" So I said "Ummm, you mean like a Black Widow, duh". And his response was "Yeah, THAT'S WHAT I JUST SAID!!!!!!!" (no you didn't, dopey). And we all started laughing at him so of course he got even more mad at me.
