Woman to friend as she opens a pack of wax strips and looks at the sticky coating: "Hmm...what is this stuff ?"
The same woman also responded with complete bewilderment at first when an acquaintance asked her, "How's your week been?". She had no idea what a weak bean was, nor why she was being asked about one.
I hope it explains the above.
Exactly, Yve. I make myself cringe.
ReplyDeleteYikes! How's your weak bean? Love it!
ReplyDeleteEmbarrassing, isn't it? In my defence, though, she had a very posh accent and she did sort of run the words together, putting the emphasis on 'been'.
DeleteI know, I know, not that convincing really....
How do you make a blonde's eyes light up?
ReplyDeleteEven if I knew the answer to that one, e.f., I'm too smart to let on that I do ;-)
DeleteYou shine a flashlight in her ears...budumpbumptssssss.
DeleteSorry...that was bad. I got a lotta bad jokes.
Given my own propensity for being confused by the obvious...I take it as evidence of a higher intelligence. Can't be bothered with the mundane. I have people for that.
I'll forgive ya that one!
DeleteI like that about the higher intelligence. I have endless evidence to prove that very point.
But what DID the Q sign mean??
ReplyDeleteOh, hold on...I get it...

DeleteConfusing, isn't it?
well! what is a weak bean?
ReplyDeleteExactly, OPC. I'm glad it's not just me who doesn't know. Presumably just a bean that's not very strong..?
DeleteLike Grandad from Leeds used to say, "There's nowt wrong wi' bein daft". Well, unless you find yourself eating the odd-tasting raisins off the sticky paper!
ReplyDeleteAh, thank you, those Northerners have a lovely way of straight speaking! I like that.
DeleteI hope I never find myself eating those 'raisins' - or, if I ever do, let's just hope I don't like them...
C, you're priceless!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very polite way of putting it, thank you!
