*Panacea, stocking pool floaties at CVS job years ago*

Girl: Do you have any chipses? *head tilt*
Me: Excuse me, sorry? *head tilt*
Girl: Oh, *pause* CHIP-SES? Where is the chipses aisle??
Me: @_@ CHIPS? Aisle 9.


Double plural chips have the best flavor, apparently.

Someone asked me what color charcoal was once. I found it highly amusing.

Oh, there was a girl at work one night that was reading our EMD cards (it's the cards we use when we get a call for an ambulance) and she paused, looking real concerned, and then giggled and said "nevermind." When we FINALLY got her to tell us she said that she was about to ask us "ya'll, what's electro-cush-uhn"...then she realized it was electrocution. LOL

My geography is the worst. I've come out with some really dumb things. Like being amazed that Canada is massive and not a tiny Island somewhere above America. And finding out that Syria is NOT above Russia and Bosnia is NOT in the middle of Africa.

Geography doesn't seem to be a strong point with a lot of people.

When I was in 10th grade, we were doing current events one day in social studies class. The teacher called on a girl to share her current event article which was about North Korea. After she finished reading it, the teacher then asked her to take a sticky note and stick it on the big pull down map at the front of the room to show where North Korea is.

The girl stands there for a real long time staring at the map. I can understand, lots of people aren't good at geography.

But then she takes the sticky and puts it right on the word "RUSSIA". And mind you, RUSSIA was written in big huge bold letters. I almost died trying to hide my laughter.

This was an honors class too lol. :24:

When I was at college, years ago, there was a guy in my English class, he was also doing A Level geography, remember this is in Essex where we were, and he thought that Scotland was on the other side of London. :willy_nilly:

Years ago my ex-wife and her girlfriend went out to the store. Hours later they came home and told me how proud I would be... Apparently they got a flat tire and changed it all by themselves.
Then my ex said that there was one thing they couldn't understand... When they took the flat tire off, they saw a big screw in it... then she said, "What I don't understand, is the screw was in the top of the tire but the bottom was flat."


I told her that when you drive, the air in the tires heat up and since hot air rises, it will only leak when the hole is in the top like that. :dunno

"well then, why are the papers still here?"

I stopped at a company office to fax some important paperwork, and when the papers were going through the fax machine, I went to another part of the building to talk to a guy. When I got back to that particular office where the fax machine was, I saw the papers laying on the desk in the office. I asked one of the guys if the papers were faxed, and he said "no", and that he informed me that he had put the papers on the desk.

Well then, I put the papers back in the fax machine, and I hit "send". As they're going through, I get a phone call on my cell, and I walk outside. I come back, and again, I see the papers laying on the desk and I ask the same guy if the papers got faxed out this time.

He said "no". I responded that I couldn't figure out why they weren't getting faxed because it seemed as if they (papers) were going through, and before I could print up a report to check on their status, I had asked him why he thought the papers didn't get faxed.

You had to of seen the look on my face when I finally figured it out LOL
