When cats rub up against something, they are marking it(territory) with their scent and they do the same thing with urine spray.

While attending our Surgery Christmas party, I introduced my DH to our head surgeon. He asked DH was kind of work he did. DH answered, "I'm a Dr. of Mechanics. The difference is I can't bury my mistakes." God, I wish the floor had swallowed me. I was so embarrassed. It was very unusual for my DH to say such things and it didn't seem to phase him one bit. The Dr. just walked away. I went home.

Introducing people to people, my opening was "Tim, have you met Monica? Monica, this is Tim, our erection specialist!". Tim, who had been setting up portable cyclone fence panels all morning just beamed, Monica scurried away, refusing to look at Tim or me for the rest of the deployment.

I'm sure I have said some blunders, but the thing my DH said tops them all. Our GD about the age of 5 or 6, jumped in his lap as he was eating a bag of pistachios, he yelled "Kaitlyn get off my nuts!" He didn't even know what he had said for a minute or so.

Yeah, hubby has a tendency to speak b4 thinking - we were standing in the auto parts store, looking at the items on the shelf, when this really big dude came down our aisle. He was having trouble selecting just the right air freshener when I hear, "if you took a bath every now & then you wouldn't need one of those things!" Oh my gosh, I could have died. It came from MY husband. And did I mention, this dude was REALLY BIG? I couldn't leave fast enough!

i work at a trucking company & every once in a while have to cut a freight bill to move something out that's been reconsigned or something..

well, you have to put a location where the freight is.. like trl # 1213454 or dock a bay..

well, who knew DOCK, was so hard to type... first changed the vowel to i... oops..

caught that, but when i "fixed" the i to o, also changed the d to c...

printed the bill... the dockman came in asking "whose is this on?"

i'll never hear the end of that one!

When working as a receptionist,left the front desk to use the restroom. So here I am sitting in the stall, my mind million miles away & out of the blue I said, "Hello, AT&T".
Was so glad at that time that I was in there all alone. I just had to laugh at myself.

Have you heard about the new 'tooth paste' that is now available?

Very clever those inventors ... the tooth paste contains shoe polish.

It is for those people who put their foot into their mouth!

lol
