I don't mean it in a bad or cruel way...just messing with people. For example, I have a good friend who's last name is Roshasdvist...no, it's not pronounced phoenetically...it's "Roza-vist". Anyway, he was telling me a story about being at a ticket counter one time, and the lady pulled up his i.d. and said, "Thank you Mr....Uh....Roshashadvshits" to which he replied, without missing a beat..."It's Perkins".
She smiled and said, "Oh I'm sorry Mr. Perkins. Thank you and have a nice day."
I mean, are people really this stupid? (That's a rhetorical question) Here's what I did just yesterday. I was working on some equipment and needed to call a parts house in Iowa to get a specific part. While the gal was waiting on her computer, she asks, "Has it been dry down there too?"
I replied (one of my Dad's favorites) "It's so dry, I caught a catfish lastnight with a tick on it."
She says, "Really??"
I responded, "Yep. Stuck to that catfish right behind it's ear. Big tick too!"
She says, "Man, I knew the ticks were bad this year, but I didn't think they were that bad."
Ok, now I almost felt sorry for this person because either she is so dumb she doesn't realize that catfish don't have ears so how could the tick be there...or she has been so sheltered that she doesn't realize what a catfish is.
I love messing with people...if you catch them off guard just a little, you can have them believing that you're the Queen of England.
Surely I'm not the only one that does this...who else has a story?
