Conversations w/ Strangers...

1.) First day meeting the new guy from the Netherlands:

Me- So where are you from

New Guy- From the Netherlands

Me- So does that make you a neanderthal?

New Guy- .... nice meeting you (walks away)


2.) Buying dad's birthday gift from nice elderly woman from the jewelry store.

*Scenario- Pam (sales associate) was an uber nice lady who took the time to help me, Anne and Jane pick the best gift for dad's 50th bday. We had narrowed it down to 2 watches and suggested that I pick because I SHOULD know what my dad would like rather then the 2 girls

Me- Okay we'll go with that one

Pam- Great choice

Me- Yeah in most cases men are always right and women should just agree

Pam- Yes.... wait NOOOOOO.

LOL, I wish I could take photos of people's reactions when situations like this occur. This random picture from google does not do Pam's expression justice, but you get the idea.



3.) "Awesome"

*Scenario- My coworker's sister had this awesome t-shirt that a friend of hers had hand made w/ trini slang and sayings. Please keep in mind that everyone at this party was JUICED and i am very much anti-cancer

Me- So who made your shirt?

Coworker's Sister- Oh my friend who died of cancer

Me- Awesome

Jordan- Umm, NO! Not awesome.

Me- THE SHIRT THE SHIRT is awesome... not your friend dieing


4.) "Rockin' that shit"

*Scenario- I'm sitting at my desk at work when my co-worker picks up my ipod to ask me what I'm listening to

CW- What are you listening to?
*Picks up ipod and reads "Rockin' that shit" by The Dream

Me- *Looks up* It's a love song...

CW- *Puts ipod down and slowly walks away...
