Do you have any funny or strange things you could tell us about your day today?

I got a crappy email from my ex today and could sure use a shot of funny or strange for a quick smile.

I saw a “really fat” lady drop her bag of chicken nuggets in the mall food court. When she bent down,her pants ripped down the seam in the back, then she lost her balance and fell forward.

I’m 50 and I couldn’t contain my laughter. I’m still laughing typing this. She didn’t seem too embarassed. She was more worried about spilling her “diet coke”

Nothing that out of the ordinary happened today per say. I just realized how ridiculous my life has been lately…

The other night I was in the passenger seat and someone was driving me home. We were holding hands and then he had to shift gears. So it ended up so that both of our hands were on the gearshift. “You know how to drive stick, right?” He asked. “Kind of. I’ve tried.” I said. “Well, this might help you get the feel of it.” He said. We were on the really windy road at like 4 AM that leads to my house. So, we were silent. Shifting. That, along with some events to follow, was some of the most ridiculous foreplay that I’ve experienced. I felt like I was in a movie.

@aviona: that must have been a queer experience, I like the way you wrote it.

@tigran it was interesting. I didn’t really think about it at the time (maybe because I was so tired). :) thanks though

Didn’t happen today but I was approached by a “knight of the road” on my last business trip. He was hungry and I gladly gave him my lunch since I had eaten a large meal earlier. He then pulled out a piece of paper and asked if I could help him out with it.
It was a citation for urinating in public- I laughed big time

I was molested by a sock puppet in the parking lot of a grocery store today. I declined to press charges against said puppet because she apologized for her aberrant behavior.

@Bluefreedom That silly sock puppet was here just 2 weeks ago. She gets around.

@chyna and @Skippy. If that’s the case, you two be careful because she strikes without warning!

@Dog What did you do?

I was forced to wear socks and flip flops!!! How utterly embarrassing! However, I had no choice in the matter. Our weather went from 85 degrees Monday, to about 40 today, Tuesday! I was running really late for work and did not have time to turn back.

I went to the store tonight to get a bottle of wine and as I was walking into the store I realized I was still wearing my fuzzy slippers. ;)

Dog's avatar

@FGS I told him I could not help with that but to “keep the faith” I was still chuckling when I got off the subway and went to my hotel. I guess I am easily amused.

FGS's avatar

@Dog Good answer!!

@Kelly27 Were they the fuzzy bear or puppy slippers? ;)

i burned a cd with all the music i used to listen when i was in hg (i was a bad skater/biker kid back then) so whe i got to college and parked the car i was listening a limp bizkit song, my generation, and there was this lady and she looked at me (me: wearing suit and tie looking all professional) and she whispered “he must be lost on drugs…” I just started laughing… so when i passed the lady I told her, “I just refused to grow up”...

Yes but given that I spent the day learning how to do colonoscopies you might not want to hear them.

I phoned a law firm, asking for a lawyer, that was supposed to file a case for the client I am currently working for.
One of the law firm’s secretaries told me: “He died 3 years ago, and I keep receaving the same call every year. Yes sir, he’s still dead so He will not be able to answer you any time soon. Should I leave him a message?”

I sat down at my desk and noticed the phone looked funny. Apparently a new person was working in my area the night before. One of the speed dials on the phone was incorrect, and the newbie brainiac decided to take it upon themselves to change it. They took a blue pen and scribbled it out on the plastic cover of the phone. They weren’t even bright enough to slide the paper out from beneath the plastic. I laughed and laughed over that one.
The number was labeled incorrectly because the unit assigned to it sometimes houses females, and other times houses males.

Another funny thing happened with a coworker. He had left his computer logged on and left the area for a break. Someone else signed him off and used the computer under their own account. The first coworker came back, and entered a log for an inmate. The log was attributed to the second person. What’s hilarious is that my coworker is an atrocious speller, and the log entry had so many glaring errors. The second worker went to a supervisor for help, asking if it can be deleted or corrected. “Nope, it’s there for all eternity!”
He slipped out quickly after work, before I could ask him if he “wonted to worsh his hair insted of go to court when he out of their.”

My dog came in soaking wet, so I thought he had been in the pool. I went out to check the hose and such, just in case. I found a sealed, empty water bottle with a bite mark out of it which explained it all.
