So, um, I just got propositioned at work...

[emoflamingo]

This guy came in to pay his bill. He started his policies here when I was pregnant. Like super pregnant. So he cracked some joke today about Snickers (because I once went to Wal-Mart hungry and pregnant) while he was paying with incompetent coworker. When he was done, he walked into my office and said to me:

"When your man stop makin' you smile, you give me a call. I'll buy you all the Snickers you want."

And then I about peed myself trying not to laugh.

OMG, LOL.

What did you say?

[emoflamingo]

I said "I'll keep that in mind. Thank you."

And as soon as I heard the dinger on the door (it doesn't ding until it closes) I laughed and texted my husband "watch out, I have a potential new boyfriend with gold teeth!"

I feel as though this video is appropriate:

HAY! It's fixed, mrs.jacinthe!!

It was.. interesting. I told my boss and he looked at me like I was insane. And incompetent coworker said the guys who were in on Friday night when I left were talking to each other in Spanish and she said "I don't know Spanish but I'm pretty sure everyone knows what 'tetas grande' means."

Nothing but interesting people these days. Just sad that I don't get visited by a monkey at this office!

It always amazes me when people speak in another language thinking you don't understand it and then use a word or phrase that is widely known.  Like the time I had been flirting with this guy at a college party and his friend came up to him and asked if he wanted to leave to go to a different party and he responded in spanish...which felt kinda rude to begin with since I was standing RIGHT THERE talking to him and then the word puta caught my ear.  

"WHAT did you just say??"
"Oh...you speak spanish?"
"no.  But that word is the same in a lot of different languages."
"oh...yeah...i didn't mean it literally though.  It's like saying 'chick' or something."

Yeah...ok buddy.  And yet you immediately knew exactly why I was pissed.  Sure.  I believe you.  fuck off.

YES wawa. Some words are kind of known, even if you speak nothing else in the language. So no, you probably should not use common slang to bag on someone nearby because you never know.
