    I think everyone has expierenced this at some point in their life. Do you know when you hear the end of a conversation & either get the wrong impression or assume things? Or when your in a crowded room and someone says something inappropiate just as it goes quiet?

    I remember i was walking through a shopping centre & as i passed by these 2 women all i heard was "i just stuck it in his arse,he didnt even mind". Now this could of been something as innocent as her boyfriend being ill or whatever & she had to deposit some suppostories in his rectum but straight away i assumed she was the filthy type that keeps a dildo under her pillow..i will never know what the truth was though.

    In my old job, i was at a meeting in New York waiting for the show to get under way, we're in the room having coffee and theres a lot of chit chat going on & just as the room fell silent for things to proceed i lean to my mate to say "she would definitely get it". Now i was refeering to a girl in the room,she was only the girl in the room so it was obvious who i was talking about, i had to to think quick on my feet and tried to say i meant she would have no problem understanding the new systems we were considering bringing in fair to say nobody biught that and it was very embarrissing. I couldnt wait for the meeting to end and long story short she never did get it.

    Me and my sister deliberately end our conversations in the most random dodgy sounding sentence we can think of when our parents walk into the room so they are left wondering what we were talking about. Have done for years now but as we got older they got more interesting and creative.

    What I hate is when you're having a conversation with someone and you do an impression of someone or quote something stupid someone said and passers by think you're the idiot for saying it!

    At a noisy gig the music stopped just as my friend was telling me she had a VAGINAL YEAST INFECTION.

    Drunk on night out in Waterford in 1st year College in Harveys

    There was a fella out that i knew to see around college - and he had the COOLEST kinda fluffy head of hair iv seen

    Anyhow he was out and i decided id say hi- but was loud live band on so he kept saying what- me being drunk thought he said hi back, so asked him "what music ya into?" (Like i said, drunk). At this point i couldnt take my eyes of his hair it should be noted.. he said what so I shouted, just as music finished
    "WHAT YA INTA?!"

    ...we never became friends..

    That happened to me not long ago, was talking to some friends outside their apartment a while back, when their room mate walks by and says hello... Only later did I realise at that moment I was quoting Señor Chang from Community: "Not that it's any of your business, but I ate my twin sister in utero'.

    all i heard was "i just stuck it in his arse,he didnt even mind".


    She was taking a young babys temperature?


    My friend and I have a line we say if we're alone in a lift and the door is opening.

    "...but when the rash cleared up, the grandfather still had the bite marks, but the granny had the cash"

    Makes no sense, which is the point. :)
