I am cooking a roast chicken with potatoes because i love to cook and I remembered a funny story from long ago when I was 18.
I was dating an older woman (36) and we did the whole Mrs. Robinson thing.
One time we were grocery shopping and we ran into one of her ex's who was her age.
After the customary greetings he said...
"What are you shopping for?"
She says...
"A Baguette"
I said...
"WTF is a Baguette?" (I said this rather loudly)
She hit me over the head with the baguette and I had no idea why and no idea what a baguette was.
She explained it later π
@beowulf saidIs that a trailer park joke ?? π

@beowulf saidI was 17, working on a summer construction job between my Jr. and Sr. years in high school. The boss would send me to the tool shed after nonexistent items: i.e., Level fluid, relative bearing grease, buckets of steam (50 PSI only!) pipe spreaders, and flange gauges. I only fell for the 1st one, but it got a lot of laughs. π²

@mchill saidAh yes, as a tenderfoot at scout camp, I was sent round to search for a left-handed smoke shifter. π

@mchill saidWhen I was an apprentice butcher, I searched high and low for a "Marblizer." The steaks were too lean, we needed to add fat inside the muscle.

Sky hooks, counter stretchers, etc etc
After the Marblizer episode if they sent me out for something, I went outside to smoke, then reported back another store had borrowed it.
One Saturday morning at the crack of dawn I was waiting outside a nearby scouts hall for a coach to pick me up and take me and others from my club to a regional judo tournament. I was wondering why the bus hadn't come and why no one else was waiting when I remembered the clocks had gone back and I must have missed it. I ran home and pleaded with my dad to drive me to Milton Keynes about 40 miles away as quickly as he could. About an hour later, we arrived at the sports hall in Milton Keynes only to find that the judo tournament was in fact being held the next day ...on the Sunday.
@gambrel saidI’ll bet you passed social skills with flying colors, too. π
In HS I was at a girl's house, she was supposed to be tutoring me, I was failing biology. In the middle of study she started running her hands through my hair.
I wasn't expecting that.
I ended up with a B in biology and a GF for a few months.
