Socially Awkward Moments
Today I went to the auditorium to pick up David, and a few other kids were there, folding pamphlets for his play.
Girl: "Hey, you're Aaron Boyd? *extends hand to be shook* You're a celebrity!"
Me: "I am?"
Girl: "Yeah, everyone reads your Live Journal!"
Me: "Wow, thanks."
A FEW MINUTES LATER...
Me: "You ever hear about that guy who stole a Buzz Lightyear doll?"
David: "He must've gotten raped so hard in prison."
Me: "I know. 'Hey man, what're you in for?' 'I....I....uh....(at this point I couldn't think of anything sufficiently dangerous or badass to say, so I fell back on the old standby) killed six million Jews.' 'I stole a child's doll' ".
Girl: "You know, I'm Jewish."
Me: "Uhh, sorry."
Girl: "I really wish you wouldn't joke about that."
Me: "Yeah..."
The rest of my time there was spent keeping my damn fool mouth shut.
