I have COVID. DM (who has a degree in Biochemistry) suggested to me today that I should clean out the fridge!!!

A few years ago, I was talking to a Catholic
Priest. A woman was coming towards us who was clearly a good friend of his and I asked him if she was his wife.

Now tell me your stuff! Just for fun.

I was going into a pub with a friend. Just the two of us, no dog with us. I saw a sign on the door that said "Guide dogs only" and said to her "Oh we can't go in this entrance it's for dogs" 🤦‍♂️ I have no idea what I was thinking.....

I was out with a friend , parked in car park . After an hour she wanted to leave . I said we couldn't yet . She asked why . I said because the Sign in the car park said ' No return for two hours '

Lancashire The Red Rose County

I misread the Motorway sign and thought it was The Red Nose County for ages!

I asked yesterday how The Carpenters got their name. Blush

DH: oh look - a shop called Coverdale's. That's my mate's surname.

Me: Which mate?

DH: Pete.

Me: Pete who?

DH: ... Coverdale.

I once had a longer than it should have been argument with DH about things rolling down hills, how it couldn't have been gravity making the things roll as gravity just made things fall straight down and surely the stuff rolling down the hill was just because the hill was slanted. Blush

There's a reason I did biology and chemistry rather than physics at school. Grin

@floridamanatee

I was talking to my friend in my kitchen when I noticed the wall clock had stopped working. I said 'oh look the clock has stopped, I wonder when that happened' 🤦🏽‍♀️
Winner!!!

When my 16 year old step daughter announced she was pregnant...
Me.."well how did THAT happen?!"
She .. "The usual way.."

Admittedly I was quite young but I asked if, when having given your heart for transplant, does another grow back in its place so you can keep living.

I then learnt about the concept of after death donation.

Someone at work had a birthday. She mentioned she was going to meet her twin after work…

“So it’s her birthday too!” 🤦🏼‍♀️

Playing truth or dare. At a hen party.
One of the questions was how many men I had sex with.
I said one. One of these ladies asked what was his name.
I've been married to the same man for over 45 years.

Walking along the street I asked where they plugged in the pavement cleaning machine!
I was old enough to know better.

@BlondeDogLady

I was walking through a very large open plan office in the 90's, and I spied my male friend having lunch at his desk. His sandwich box was huge. I shouted over "hey that's a big lunch box", and he said "Hmmm, thanks very much". I went really red and scurried off.

Another time, someone at work was eating a "fun size" mars bar, and I mused about how I didn't know why they called them fun size, surely a big one (complete with hand gestures) would be more fun....genuinely didn't get what the men were laughing at.

🤣🤣. I haf a good laugh about the lunch box

I was working as a receptionist at a fleet company, Some visitors turned up for meeting and had got lost. I said that was because satnavs were rubbish, turned out they were from the company that made the satnavs.

I did once wonder aloud how they onion rings so round 😳

Many years ago I ran into a family member who I hadn't seen for a few years and she called me by my sisters name. When I corrected her she looked confused and said "are you sure?" 🙄

My poor Mum. I was about six but could read, and read everything I could get my hands on.

My Mum said we were chatting about a magazine article and I asked her how, if a woman had sex with two men, and got pregnant, would she know who the father was.

This was in the early sixties. Mum said she muttered something about blood tests and changed the subject.
