01/31/10(Sun)04:22:36 No.7331222I
think I win. I heard the following in a hotel lobby from a New Jersey
mother talking to her son about the San Diego Zoo while they were
waiting for me to print out an admission coupon. No shit. Actual
conversation:
SON: Mom, are you scared of lions?
MOM: No, sweetie, lions only eat RED meat. We're white people.
I thought maybe she was being cute, so when her kid went to the bathroom, I said:
ME:
I would have gone with: "No, because the wild ones in Africa escaped
from a zoo so long ago they forgot their manners. The ones they have
here are all well behaved."
HER: What are you talking about? You shouldn't lie to children his age. It's cruel.
ME:
Oh sorry, I didn't mean to imply that lions really escape from zoos
when we all know they only escape from the circus. There's nothing to
worry about.
HER: Huh?
ME: Just being cruel again... Here's your admission coupon.
That kid took FOR FUCKING EVER in there. |
