Recently
I started working in a supermarket. I have this very husky quiet voice so i constantly get asked if i have a sore throat. It hasn't been a problem so far but after getting sick of the strange look when i replied "no, this is my normal voice" i've taken to just answering "yes".

It's not a problem as far as the work goes. I can raise my voice when i have to but if any of the customers become regular it's going to seem a little strange.

It's okay, I can relate.
I just resign myself to repeating myself.

i have no problem with repeating myself
it's just the wtf looks i get. i often have to repeat myself for old biddies who are hard of hearing.

I have a question for you and i'm looking for an answer other than make-shift lube ;p

Why would someone buy a newspaper, bread and 8 packs of lard? O.o

That happened yesterday and i'm still wondering if there's any other answer

^that's easy
They wanted to make bread and lard balls (fnarr fnarr) to feed to the birds while relaxing with the newspaper on the weekend.

What sick things were you imagining?
