MisunderstoodMy other half rang a courier today to get a disc sent over to a client. The courier company asked what it was she was sending. "A computer disc", she said.
Half an hour later, 3 blokes in a van turned up. They looked a little disappointed to be handed a floppy disc: they were all prepared to shift a computer desk across London.
Have you been utterly misunderstood recently?

Church.My cousin, bless his soul etc. has only been to church once and for good reason. Being uninitiated into the parish fold, he misunderstood proceedings somewhat.
As the collection plate came round to him he noticed several envelopes sat on top. Unbeknownst to him, the regulars had prepared their offerings in advance, and sealed them in envelopes so that nose twitchers wouldn't see how much they were giving.
Having been paying utmost attention to proceedings at the altar, rather than focusing on the plate, my cousin missed the point somewhat and took an envelope before passing it on to his neighbour.
