last night at a party, a guy was trying to hit on a girl i was there with (i'd alreay 'rescued' her a couple of times from his conversation)...
i went up to them to rescue her again, and he said "isn't she lovely and all round wonderful"... which is true, but i didn't want to encourage him. So my wonderful solution was to shrug and say "well, she's got an upside" she spent the taxi ride home teasing me about that. d'oh **************** You are a Highwayman.

Is this thread for sharing our own silver tongue moments? Because I have one with photographic evidence:
The scene: a dear college friend's wedding, reception in her rather large garden/yard The situation: I wanted a photo of her and her dad so I was holding up my camera getting ready to push the button Her father made a self-deprecating remark about not wanting to break the camera. I started to reply with my own self-deprecating remark about how the camera couldn't break because I was behind the camera. I caught myself though, because I had been admonished for my self-deprecating remarks. Instead, what came out of my mouth was, "Okay then, Wendy (the bride), don't look at the camera."   The result: a lovely picture of a laughing bride and a father who looks like he is about to leap through the lens and wring my neck. ~ . . ~ . . ~ . . ~ . . ~ . . ~ . . ~ . . ~ . . ~ . . ~ . . ~ Weeble Song!

I have a story of someone else thinking I've been silver-tongued, if that counts?
A guy at work asked me where the watercooler was, so I pointed to it and said "It's that big black thing over there." Because it's big, and black. However, just at that point my work friend was pooring water from her own bottle of evian or whatever, into her own glass. She is a large lady, and also black. He looked at me with a shocked face, until I quickly walked over to the actual watercooler and tapped on it, squeeking "Here it is...heh..." and wandered away. My work friend found it increadably funny. ----------------------------- St.Barbarella: Sexy Tart.

Weeble those shocked smilies are blinking in time with Portishead and it's surreal. Now they're going 'eh... eh eh eheh eh... eh...' It's like a really fucked up dream. Whhhhhhhooooooooaaaaaah.
Sorry that has nothing to do with the topic of the thread, I just had to mention it. ---------------------------------- Black Wings loves all of you, even though many of you are new since he vanished for a year. Boundless love for all! |
