Some texts and comments about this…
“We were at my grandfather’s funeral, and my grandmother was discussing the double headstone they had arranged. It would have both of their names, the appropriate dates, an airplane for my grandfather (lieutenant, Army Air Corps, World War II), and an anchor for her (nurse, Navy, WWII). My mom turned to her and said, ‘Wow, I can’t wait to see it when it’s finished.'”
“I’m a waitress. A woman asked for a recommendation. I said, ‘Middle-aged women usually like salad.'”
“Telling my S.O. about a girl in high school and using the phrase, ‘one that got away’…I mean, what are you thinking, brain?”
“I said congratulations to one of my good friends when he told me that his aunt had passed away. He started to cry.”
“I was in a public toilet, and someone knocked on the door to check if it was occupied, and instead of replying, ‘Occupied,’ I said, ‘Who is it?'”
“After I had a conversation with a homeless guy, he wished me a safe trip home. I responded without thinking: ‘You, too.'”
