Here are six reasons why you should think before you speak.
Have
you ever spoken and wished that you could immediately take the words
back...or that you could crawl into a hole? Here are the testimonials of
a few people who did....
FIRST TESTIMONY:
I was at the
golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls. I was unhappy with
the women's type I had been using. After browsing for several minutes, I
was approached by one of the good-looking gentlemen who works at the
store. He asked if he could help me. Without thinking, I looked at him
and said, "I think I like playing with men's balls."
SECOND TESTIMONY:
My
sister and I were at the mall and passed by a store that sold a variety
of candy and nuts. As we were looking at the display case, the boy
behind the counter asked if we needed any help. I replied, "No, I'm
just looking at your nuts." My sister started to laugh hysterically.
The boy grinned, and I turned beet-red and walked away. To this day, my
sister has never let me forget.
THIRD TESTIMONY:
While in
line at the bank one afternoon, my toddler decided to release some
pent-up energy and ran amok. I was finally able to grab hold of her
after receiving looks of disgust and annoyance from other patrons. I
told her that if she did not start behaving "right now" she would be
punished. To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a voice
just as threatening, "If you don't let me go right now, I will tell
Grandma that I saw you kissing Daddy's pee-pee last night!"
The
silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange. Even the
tellers stopped what they were doing. I mustered up the last of my
dignity and walked out of the bank with my daughter in tow. The last
thing I heard when the door closed behind me, were screams of laughter.
FOURTH TESTIMONY:
Have
you ever asked your child a question too many times? My three-year-old
son had a lot of problems with potty training and I was on him
constantly. One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch, in
between errands. It was very busy, with a full dining room. While
enjoying my taco, I smelled something funny, so of course I checked my
seven-month-old daughter, she was clean. I then realized that Danny had
not asked to go potty in a while. I asked him if he needed to go, and
he said "No." I kept thinking "Oh Lord, that child has had an accident,
and I don't have any clothes with me." Then I said, "Danny, are you
SURE you didn't have an accident?" "No," he replied. I just KNEW that
he must have had an accident, because the smell was getting worse.
Soooooo, I asked one more time, "Danny did you have an accident? This
time he jumped up, yanked down his pants, bent over, spread his cheeks
and yelled "SEE MOM, IT'S JUST FARTS!!"
While 30 people nearly
choked to death on their tacos laughing, he calmly pulled up his pants
and sat down. An old couple made me feel better, thanking me for the
best laugh they'd ever had!
FIFTH TESTIMONY:
I walked into
a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow and asked loudly,
"How much do you charge for a shampoo and a blow job?" I turned around
and walked back out and never went back. My husband didn't say a
word...he knew better.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST TESTIMONY:
This
had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days and a very
embarrassed female news anchor who will, in the future, likely think
before she speaks.
What happens when you predict snow but
don't get any! We had a female news anchor that, the day after it was
supposed to have snowed and didn't, turned to the weatherman and asked:
"So Bob, where's that 8 inches you promised me last night?" Not only
did HE have to leave the set, but half the crew did too they were
laughing so hard!
Now, didn't that feel good?
