I've done that. It's the "super focus" coming into play, I go in and I've actually gone to the bother of figuring out what to say... and I forget that the staff don't have my script, and might start with something else. And by the time I realise that what I had planned to say was inappropriate, I've already said it, because I was too busy paying attention to saying the right thing.

Heheh, I get this a bunch too. (Except the answer is always what they're looking for. You know.)
Once, I got this:
Me: "Hi! How are you? ^_^ "
Him: "Monday."
Wow. Didn't know how to react to that. Actually made me just a little bit dizzy.
EDIT: Oh, I should also mention that it wasn't Monday when that happened. :-\SC: "Are you new or something?"
Me: "Yes. Your planet is very backwards I hope you realize."

Another customer: Um, hi.
We used to have a server who got particularly ticked off when he'd say "How are you today?" to get "Coke" as an answer. So he started saying, "Really? I'm Coke, too!" Totally made people mad, but we both agree it was worth it.The original Cookie in a multitude of cookies.Comment

Gaaaah! Totally forgot about this when I posted above. The comedian Brian Regan had a hilarious routine with this type of goof up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S52-5DPRnck

Yes, said all in one breath, just like that. UGH! Of course I've had it go the other way too.
Customer: Hi, how are you doing?
Me: How can I help you--Oh, I'm sorry. Hi!
