Fifteen Boxes of Tissues

[CB ARGH]

Howdy,

Funny story... In a way.

I work at Pak'nSave, on the checkouts. Today, they had tissues on special, WOW! A guy came through my checkout with fifteen boxes of these bloody things, so I said a simple joke "you doin some cryin next week mate?" with a smile on my face.

The reply, oh god....

"Yeah, got a funeral tomorrow"...




FUCK!

Oops! Classic case of foot in mouth disease.

Yeah, I had the misfortune to make the same mistake some years ago in Whangarei.

Go into Donovan's (local engineering supply shop) and one of the counter girls is all smartly dressed in black which was out of the ordinary.

That should have been my first clue. "Geez, who's funeral are you going to?" I say in my finest wisecracking tone.

"My aunt's"

Oooooooohhhhhh SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, SHIT.Felt like the world's biggest at that particular moment.
