  • Just when I thought I heard everything

    This is just a quick one.

    I was helping a woman today, she was looking for something specific that we didn't have. After realizing this, she decides she wants to find something else. She looks around and then looks at me and asks:

    "Don't you have any of those shoes that you can put your feet into?"

    The really sad part was that I figure out that she wanted clogs on my first try.

          Ya know, when I say something that stupid, I have the grace to turn red, sputter, and attempt to sink into the floor.

          I'm glad you had a brainwave, because I would have stared at her stupidly

            I can't tell what leaves me the more speechless : what that woman said or the fact that you actually got what she meant.

                  There are interpreters for Spanish, Arabic, Vietnamese... I think you may be the first interpreter of Moronese.

                      I think I would have ruptured something trying to prevent myself from saying something like.

                      "Oh my GOD!....Shoes you put your FEET in?!.....I didn't know they made those!"

                      And then I'd be fired. *Sigh*

                        Where, can I get one?

                        Did she realize what she said?
                        wouldn't lube work better in a f***ing machine?

                        Yes, that’s right. It’s a pair of gold foil headphones. Gold foil. Finally, headphones just as awful as your taste in music.

                          Heheh...the term "stupidspeak" reminded me of the term "Newspeak" from the book 1984.

                            I'm still trying to figure out how I knew what she was talking about. (I think i've just been doing the job to long).
                            And the lady really thought she was asking a serious question.
                            My co-worker sat there trying not to laugh at her, then she was shocked when I picked out the right shoes for the lady.
                            We both had a really good laugh about it afterwards.

                              This is where you paint "TGIF" on the front of each shoe.
