Messed up conversations this week

I was giggling ALL WEEK LONG.  People are so damned funny, I love it.

One child decided to randomly inform me that her grandpa "drinks a little alcohol".   You bet I took great joy in sharing the knowledge when her teacher came back into the room.  "Hey, tell Ms. Susie about your grandpa..."  "He drinks a little alcohol!"  :D  Sometimes I love my

I once was dressed down by an automatic check out machine at Tesco. I was buying lunch plus a pair of household scissors.

Turns out, (household) scissors are on the list of items only to be sold to people over 18. So I had to take my NC-17 purchase to a cashier manned by a real human and show my face...

I always knew you were a little shady... buying dangerous scissors and everything...

Bet you ran with them too, you saucy minx! ;D

I guess scissors could be used as a weapon. But so could be stiletto high heels. *rolls eyes* Might be because the weapons of choice in the UK are knives, guns are very hard to come by.

Ha! In Germany you would be hard-pressed to find an open shop on a Sunday that´s not in a train station or an airport - but those would indeed sell tights on any weekday ;)

I'm not sure what would be worse, to be shot or stabbed. I think I'll take a pass on either.

You could cut some vicious snowflakes with scissors. Or, ah, trim someone's hair... viciously.

At least a knife is not a long-range weapon, other than that, I´d prefer never to experience either.

It would be downright cruel to have me cut somebody´s hair.

As far as I remember I had been planning to use those scissors for opening clearly suspicious milk and juice cartons.

Aaah, who knows what I could have caused by attempting to purchase cutlery!

Wow. Was that a REALLY small town in Texas? Because what if you got a run in your hose right before church? Wouldn't you want to look respectable when you go to the house of the lord?

;D
