I was taking a smoke break today outside my apartment, when a middle-aged man with a stroller came strolling by. While I don’t mind slowly cancering myself to death, I was less than keen on the baby getting a puff, so I walked a few feet into the street. Traffic was light so I was in no danger; dont worry. Anyway, a couple seconds later I look down the sidewalk and see the man lighting up a cigarette. Aaaargh. :mad:
What mundane, ironic situations have you been in lately?
Bravo for life’s little ironies.
I got that, you know.
Father smoking: Booooo
Your courtesy: Hooray!
I haven’t seen anything that sparks a memory, but what you did was nice.
A guy I know went through a huge amount of trouble to ask for my niece’s hand in marriage. My brother and several other people were in on the conspiracy. Huge planning, huge expanse, all to get that yes.
He got it.
And he was in complete control of the situation. After he got the yes, now she’s running the show. Silverware patterns, flower arrangements, cake, bridesmaids,the whole nine yards. He signed up for Hell.
A bunch of my friends and I were at a Denny’s years and years ago. A couple with a baby sat next to us. Before we lit our cigarettes, we made sure it was okay with them and even all stood up and moved our table over several feet, we even did our best to make sure the smoke didn’t drift towards their table…only to have them both light up.
