Random Convos

This is a convo I had on the bus a rather crowded bus other day..

Random man (turns around and looks at me, moves a little closer (we were both standing) and says): Do you type a lot?
Me: Excuse me?
RM: do you type a lot?
Me: Not really
RM: Aren’t you like a secretary or something? (do I really LOOK like a secretary? LOL)
Me: I guess you could say that
RM: So you do type a lot?
Me: Not really..
RM: Do you handwrite a lot then?
Me: (again) Not really.
RM: So, would you say that 3 handwritten pages equal one typed page?
Me: I don’t know
RM: Give me your best guess
Me: I really don’t know.
RM: So, do you type a lot?
Me: Not really..

Then RM turns around and takes a few steps back to where he was previously standing. I was half expecting him to ask me to type something for him :-D

So, share some of your random convo’s with me.

 

I must say, that is really strange!

 

As long as the bloke gave you a tip Kes. Monetary or outre-wise.:-D

 

I was with a good friend at K-Mart the other day while she picked up her lay-away for Christmas. I had been looking at TV's while I was there, and thinking about putting one on lay-away, but still am not clear what that would do for me. I guess if I thought I was locked in to it, I would keep paying until it was mine.

Anyhow, I asked the girl behind the counter about it, and my friend was interjecting, so here it goes. Me, Girl & Friend

Me: Is there a time limit on your lay-away program?
Girl: Yes, 8 weeks
Me: Two months? It almost makes more sense to just save your money for that long.
Girl:???
Me: Do you need to put anything down to do it?
Friend: There are signs hanging that explain it all
Me: I didn't come here to read signs, she didn't waste her time training to tell me to read them.
Friend: ???
Girl: Yeah, 10%
Me: So a $700 would be roughly $70 down, and $80 a week?
Friend: Here's another sign with a payment schedu.....
Me: I don't have any friends, I'm trying to have a conversation here, maybe make a friend. Why are you interrupting me?!?!
Girl: LOL
Friend: ???
Me: I still think it makes more sense not to use the lay-away.
Girl: It's not for everyone I guess.
Friend: Can I pay now? You're not even in line!!!

It was funny, a had to be there kind of thing.. My friend knew I was getting heated, but just joking around, the girl behind the counter probably thought we were legit. LOL

 

The man in the other room asked me what I wanted for dinner not long ago. LOL

By the way Dy, I was expecting your RM to freak not getting the answer he was searching for.

 

So I walked up to the check-out counter at our local Kwik Trip with a cup of coffee from their array of dispensers.

The woman behind the counter says "Gasoline" and I respond "No I gave that up and just have coffee now".

Good thing none of you are within striking range.

 

Stood outside Tesco waiting with lots of shopping bags around my feet while my wife goes to get car !

Girl walks past really pretty young thing smiles at me says something and carries on following my wife, guy walks over to me !

( Conversation ! )

Guy : Waiting for the wife then ( Lights a cigarette )
Me : Yeah
Guy : Its a nightmare at christmas isn't it
Me : Yeah
Guy : Was that the wife
Me : Yeah she's gone to get the car
Guy : Mine too, to put all that lot in ( pointing to his pile of shopping bags)
Me : Mine too this lot ( pointing to my shopping bags )
Guy : Did you check her out
Me : Who ?
Guy : That young chick following you wife out
Me : ( Just nodding )
Guy : She was a fine piece of stuff did you see the paps ( Breasts ) on her ! I would get jail for just thinking about what i would do with her
Me : Oh ! ( Shaking my head )
Guy : Is this your wife in the 4x4 ( Wife pulls alongside me )
Me : Yes and thats my daughter sat next to her in the passenger seat LOL
Guy : Oooooooohhhh ! ( Really really red faced ) :-o:-o I think i had better go and get my bags ready for my wife !

The pretty young girl is my daughter 24yrs old, and when i told her what had happened she laughed then waved to him and blew him a kiss as we pulled away , just as his wife had pulled alongside him , if you could have seen the look on his wifes face as she noticed my daughter waving and blowing him kisses :-D:-D
As we looked back his wifes jaw was going 50 to the dozen :-D:-D

Moral of the story : Keep your thoughts to your self !

 

He'll have some explaining to do, :-D

 

My trusty truck had broken down one evening, and since this was in my pre cell phone days I had to walk about four miles to get to my brother's house to get some assistance. I was over halfway there when I decided to stop for a break under the shade of a tree by the city cemetery entrance (it was very hot that day). A car pulled up a moment later, and the female driver stuck her head out of the window and asked me

"Is the cemetery open?"

I responded with "No, it's closed right now." Bear in mind it was still before dusk, and I was standing in front of the closed and padlocked gate to the cemetery, and right next to a large sign on the fence that clearly listed the grounds hours.

"When does it open?" the driver asked me.

"It's open between 6am and 6pm Monday through Friday," I responded (I forget now the weekend hours).

"Can I get in there now?" she asked.

"No. It's closed. You need to check with the caretakers and make arrangements if you want to visit the cemetery after hours." Something along these lines was also on the sign, along with a phone number.

She squinted at me and asked, "Why can't I make arrangements with you?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't work here," I said

She looked indignant and said "Well, how do you know so much about their business then!"

I was trying my best not to laugh . . . and just responded with "Have a nice day, Ma'am," and walked away.

Haven't thought about that in years!
