😂 Didn't affect me, but I packed dd's bag for a Tuesday, which meant she didn't have her PE kit so had to do it in her knickers. Blush

Defuzzing my intimate area for a forthcoming holiday using a small bathroom mirror and veet. Blind as a bat and not a tiny person. Hilarious patchy results.

I asked a student who is unknown to me for their name in the corridor at break, so I could issue them with a mark for incorrect uniform.

Their mate instantly quipped, “Don’t tell him, Pike.”

I couldn’t help it, I fell about laughing, all professionalism lost. Excellent, and very vintage, reference.

I visited my 80yr old neighbour in hospital, and whilst there he looked me straight in the eyes (I thought he was going to say something important) and let rip! Loud and long! 😂😂

Nope, he was on a ward with bays of 4 on either side, a male nurse walked past and chuckled and I made eye contact with 2 men in the opposite bay - one of them was doubled over. He’s lucky I found it amusing rather than offensive lol

Indeed, Doos, we do tend to disapprove of secondary school students going to gym in their knickers!

Doos9643 · 08/05/2019 23:15

@SachaStark
Glad to hear it!

Not so much funny as ridiculously awful and embarrassing. Also happened yesterday rather than today but I’m still cringing.

About a decade ago I went out with a guy for a couple of years. I was very naive and didn’t realise he was cheating on me the whole time. He told all his mates, his family, his girlfriend (now his wife) that I was obsessed with him and pretty much stalking him and suicidal and used that as an excuse whenever people saw us out together. All very humiliating but a long time ago. I had been emailing a woman about some kittens she was selling and went over to her house a couple of towns away to see them. I got there and within a couple of minutes realised I was at the house of this ex boyfriends wife, who was his girlfriend when I was on the scene. She clearly realised after another few minutes but neither of us mentioned it and I said I’d be in touch. Now everyone is going to think I’m actually stalking this man and his wife and I want the ground to swallow me up.

@Doos haha I thought it was Thursday

woodcutbirds · 08/05/2019 23:17

It's my birthday soon and I suddenly realised I will be a year younger than I thought I was going to be. (I'm in my fifties) Was so excited I shouted the news to DH.

@SachaStark
Joking aside, its not right, is it?

PlainVanilla · 08/05/2019 23:39

I went with my brother and sister to organise our mother's funeral. Despite the situation we all managed to retain our sense of humour.

SachaStark · 08/05/2019 23:40

Doos, Joking aside, I’m really not sure. It was the done thing when I was a kid in the 90s. As a member of the teaching profession, I’m generally bemused by mostly anything to do with primary school, though! The entire idea terrifies me (give me teens any day of the week!) so I really can’t say if it’s right or not.

I woke up from a dream exhausted because I was a Liverpool player playing Barcelona but all the Barcelona players,were headless, child size empty Spiderman suits I woke up sad and sweaty and anxious but remembered Liverpool had won so went back to sleep, replayed the match, beat the suits and as a result of exhaustion have done knob all productive with my day.
