I had a lot on my mind but still:

I ordered a meal at a fast food drive-thru. I paid for it and when the female worker gave me my change I said, "thank you"
and drove off - without the food! When I went back, that same worker gave me an extra side - I
guess as a "thanks for the laugh" gesture.

That was nice of her. I drove away yesterday without checking the order. Got all the way home and discovered they'd given me a different sandwich than the one I ordered. It was okay, but not what I wanted.

Many years ago when my youngest son was about seven....my older daughter told me that RS McColls shop in Glasgow was selling Hoverboards like the ones in Back to the Future...I phoned my friend how had a daughter the same age as my son..and she got so excited that we planned to go shopping that morning to order thest board.... We tried RS...no joy.. then three other big stores that sold gadgets...not one of the salegirls even smiled never mind laughing in our faces..............My daughter wasnt too popular that day....

When spray painting a lawn chair I noticed that I missed a small spot. I carefully pointed the can in the direction of the miss…. and sprayed myself in the face with green paint.

When I was a teen I had to sneeze while eating dinner I shut my mouth tight so I wouldn't spray food. Peas and carrots came shooting out of my nose.

Get this! My car was sitting out in the cold for a week, decided to go to the store, got a block away and looked at the gauge. OMG! How could this car heat up so fast! The needle is all the way over to Hot!

Went home, waited for the car to cool off, and look into the radiator.

Well, well, well! Believe it or not, I had taken the full gas needle for the Temperature gauge!
