Lil G's post reminded me of a funny one:

Claire worked as a shop assistant for Marks and Spencers for quite a few years.

One evening, back in London, Claire, her brother and I were watching television and this advert came on that showed orangutangs performing admirable feats.

Claire broke the silence saying, "Isn't it amazing how orangutangs can learn to do things like that?!", to which her brother replied, "It's no more amazing than getting you to stack shelves...".

I still laugh about it today.

Actually, I think this is the advert in question. Hooray for Youtube:

The worst insult I ever received was back when I first started in nursing and was working on a locked psychiatric unit. These units have rooms called "quiet rooms" were patients are restrained or secluded. They are monitored either by camera or by having staff sit outside the room and watch through a window (for safety).

Anyways, we had a hard core drug abuser on the unit who was ditching a felony arrest warrant by claiming to be suicidal. When I was young, energetic, and much more judgemental I was pretty tough on the addicts ... especially what we liked to call re-treads.

Anyways, this particular gentleman ended up in the quiet room for a "time out" for causing a ruckus with other patients. He got pretty upset about missing his smoke time because he was locked up. The short story is that I happened to be the one monitoring him when he found out he would be missing his smoke break.

His response to this was to strip nude, take a dump in the middle of the floor, and use his poop to draw a picture of me on the window of the room. He even wrote my name underneath the mural BACKWARDS so it could be clearly read from outside the room.

I am very thick skinned, but I was pretty insulted by that one.

Ava Gardener turned me down for drinks when I was 18 ....... I was in a white tux and she kept staring and smiling at me from across the room so i thought we were a go ........ didn't know who she was at the time, but I knew I could take the guy she was with in a fair fight (Don Johnson)

when i was a young girl, i had two 'best' friends. i was around 8 or 9 ... i received, in the mail ... pictures cut out of magazines ( Tiger Beat, etc. .....it was the mid 60's) of Mick Jagger. my mom & i opened the letter ... looked at the pictures, and then read the hand written paper ... it said 'here's pictures of your twin. your lips are too big and you're too skinny'. i burst into tears ... wondering who could send such a mean thing to me, as it was unsigned and no return address. when you're a kid ... you want ot fit in - you want to be pretty. i wanted to look like the girls on the magazine covers - blonde and thin lipped. you DON'T want to look likea blonde mick jagger. some years later, i found out it was my 'friends' that sent it. needless to say ... they were NOT my BFF'S any longer. but i'm kinda tickled now how everyone is paying for 'big lips'. hell ~ i was hot before angelina!

I'm sorry, Frank, but that's just too funny. It has popped up in my mind several times throughout the day, and it makes me smile each time. Was it a good portrait?

Went to a wedding and sat across from a couple we didn't know. Introduced ourselves and the girl looked at me an my wife and then asked me "When you two go out to bars, do you get that "Robbing the cradle" look from people?" My wife is 2 months older than me! She just ages better!

I wouldnt worry about that one to much, I know a TON of people like that, including me. It just means your not a "Wall Flower" and you are assertive and like to be the life of the party.
