Some Times You’ve Just Got To Laugh
Rushing to work this morning as per usual I saw an elderly couple ahead of me. All of a sudden they both started waving at me and my mental processes go into overdrive trying to match their faces to any of the elderly folk near where I live. All of which I’ve probably only spoken to once or twice over the last five years but they always manage to recognise me immediately.
I came to the conclusion that I didn’t know them, they've just mistaken me for someone they do know, you know the way old people are always getting things confused. So I gave them a hearty wave back as I didn’t want to hurt their feelings. They in turn gave me the ‘You’re a fucking weirdo’ look. Bemused I turned round and there’s an old chap a few paces behind me waving to them and giving me odd looks.
Fuck me I laughed so loud everyone crossed the street to avoid me and cars slowed down to see what was going on. I didn’t give a fuck, those coffin dodgers made my day.
