Ask a silly question ...
PLEASE DO NOT READ IF EASILY OFFENDED.
I have a dog & I was buying a large bag of dog food in the Co-op and was standing in the queue at the till.
A woman behind me asked if I had a dog.
On impulse, I told her that no, I was starting The Winalot Diet again,
although I probably shouldn't because I'd ended up in the hospital last
time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care
ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and the way that it
works is to load your trouser pockets with Winalot nuggets and simply
eat one or two every time you feel hungry & that the food is
nutritionally complete so I was going to try it again.
I have to mention here that practically everyone in the queue was by now
enthralled with my story, particularly a guy who was behind her.
Horrified, she asked if I'd ended up in the hospital in that condition
because I had been poisoned.
I told her no, it was because I'd been sitting in the road licking my
b******s and a car hit me.
I thought one guy was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so
hard as he staggered out the door.
Stupid cow..........why else would I buy dog food??

Brilliant story, I applaud you for having the nerve!
On a similar not whilst out with Dave we always get asked "are you related" or "are you brothers" - I sometimes say that I am Dave's uncle or cousin or that he was my stalker and wanted to look like me so he had loads of plastic surgery.
The stupidist comment I ever heard was, "it must be looking in the mirror............. twice".
(same note for the last one, easily offended look away)
If it is at the pub and I am feeling particularly cheeky if someone says, "do you feel each others emotions" I say only when Dave is with a woman and it can get quite embarrassing" (well that is the toned down version)

My cousin and I both have very curly long dark hair. At her wedding reception a few years ago someone asked her mother if we were related. Her mother quipped "no they just go to the same hairdresser".

Somewhere, probably another forum of some description, some person was a bit cheeky in the supermarket - kept putting packets of condoms into other people's shopping trolleys. I guess when they got to the checkout, maybe they were too scared to say that "this" isn't theirs?
