OT - Never question a drunk
Posted: Wed Sep 17, 2008 1:19 amI was shopping at the local supermarket where I selected:
A half-gallon of 2% milk,
A carton of eggs,
A quart of orange juice,
A head of romaine lettuce,
A 2 lb. can of coffee, and
A 1 lb. package of bacon.
As I was unloading my items on the conveyor belt to check out, a drunk
standing behind me watched as I placed the items in front of the cashier.
While the cashier was ringing up the purchases, the drunk calmly stated,
"You must be single."
I was a bit startled by this proclamation, but I was intrigued by the
drunk's intuition, since I was indeed single. I looked at the six items on
the belt and saw nothing
particularly unusual about my selections that could have tipped off the
drunk to my marital status.
Curiosity getting the better of me, I said:
"Well, you know what, you're absolutely right. But how on earth did you know
that?"
The drunk replied, "Cause you're ugly."
