Anyone after a cheap laugh at my expense?

[UnctuousUnicorns]

My parents sent us a cheque in the post, just arrived today.
DH said, "I can't pay this in via the banking app; it's too big."
I said, "But it's just a normal sized cheque, surely?"
DH: "No, the amount of money it's for is too high - you cant pay that much in online!"

D'oh! 🤦‍♀️😳 😅😅

Love some of these 😆
On more than one occasion I’ve sent Birthday cards to friends or family and forgot to write anything in them. They open and it’s just blank.
Luckily my writing on the envelope got recognised.. but the piss is taken !

I don't get it.. I think she's right but have I misunderstood - did she say something daft or you??

Oh also at the gym, doing assisted pull ups and got confused between the more and less supportive resistance bands.

Put on the strongest one... braced.. and gave a hearty tug. Whereupon the strong resistance band pinged me up enthusiastically to audibly crack my head against the frame.

I had an actual egg shaped lump, no way to style it out.

So you can pay in a cheque for a smaller amount online? How does that work? Or was your DH being daft too?

This has already been explained. The sister was the silly one.

Airmail was charged by weight and was expensive. Airmail paper and envelopes were very thin and light, so cheaper to post. The sister bought an airmail envelope but used normal paper inside it, so it would be heavier and expensive to post. But the sister thought that if it was inside an airmail envelope, then it would make it cheaper. That’s not how it works. It’s by weight. So she should use airmail paper… her response was “but they don’t know what’s inside it so it doesn’t make a difference,” because she didn’t think through the weight difference. They don’t need to know what’s inside - they just weigh it, so she should use the lighter paper.

Some banks you can take a picture of the front and back of the cheque and upload it in the app, and they'll process it that way. One of my banks does up to £100 and the other up to £500, beyond that I'd still need to go to the post office to pay it in (or a bank branch if I still had one within 30 miles).

I once made a pot of tea for DH then poured the tea into my coffee cup that was half full of coffee. The proper stuff. Italian blend.
Builders tea and coffee together is not a good combo.

While reversing round a corner, mine told me blind learners use their cane to follow the curve of the kerb!

I recently asked a friend who was having a B12 injection what that meant she was deficient of. Funnily enough she said B12.

About six inches by three inches.

I have been on my phone chatting to a friend
and wondering where my phone is and actually hunting around for it

Why did I read this as animal paper, I did wonder at first

I've done that thing where I've made chicken stock and then accidentally poured the lot in the sink whilst holding a seive full of chicken bones 🫣

Snap. That makes two stupid gits on here😁

Nutted a plate glass window that I thought were a set of sliding doors.
City centre plenty of onlookers.
Got a taxi to nip in past a shop
Got my stuff back in taxi
Thought of the driver must've bought shopping as there was stuff on backseat
Nope I'd got in a strangers car.
Alcohol had been taken.

I keep trying to double tap a word on a paper book to look up the word.

🤣
Don’t forget this is MN, in this world that husband would have then attempted to sleep with you!

I thought of another.
My work lift had mirrors in it. I got in and noticed my top was on back to front. I thought I'd quickly turn it round. I pulled my arms out, turned the top and the lift stopped - my boss and his boss got in. I stood there with empty sleeves hoping they wouldn't notice.

Social services would have been called these days!

I recently unintentionally poured white wine into my glass of Pepsi Max. Wasn't too bad, actually. 🤷‍♀️

I once tipped a pan of spaghetti out to drain. It might have helped if I'd remembered to put a colander into the sink first... 🤦‍♀️

Years ago. My drunk friend spent ages trying to get her contact lenses out after a night iut. Scraped her eyeballs so they were bright red.

Of course she wasn’t wearing them.

Surely it’s your husband’s expense? He meant large, not big?

😂😂😂

My wife complains like crazy if I leave an 8watt light on. But she constantly fills the kettle with twice as much water as needed to make tea or coffee.
