It's Not What It Looks Like!Cawl wrote two years ago, "People seem to have a knack for walking in at just the wrong time:
"Well, my clothes got wet, so did his... Yes, officer, huddling together to conserve body heat... Yes officer, he's five... No Officer... I'm not his Dad."
What have you done that, in retrospect, you'd really rather nobody had seen, mostly as things just get worse the more you try to explain it?

SubwayA few years ago when I was on duty as a firefighter we decided to take the truck to Subway for lunch. The young girl (15 or so) who was serving asked me what I would like to order and without thinking I asked her the following question "do you ever find that six inches isn't enough, but twelve inches is too much????" The look I got in return was priceless! I couldn't get out of there quick enough.

HeheI had a similar experience when I was trying to ask a young girl if she could heat up my Cornish pasty. "Can you heat it up?", "Can you make this hot?", etc, etc. Couldn't make myself understood. Turns out they didn't have a microwave.

Did you get a discount?When I worked there, emergency services and the army got half off. I'd always giggle when cops asked for extra bacon.
