I'm sure some of them involve "This is our year!".

Not really, I've just come here because this thread is a one-in-a-forum-lifetime opportunity to legitimately post this smiley. :foot:

I dropped off my girlfriend and home last night and she said for me to drive safe.

"You too!"

"Have a great weekend!" a) when it's in the middle of the week and b) when I'm still going to be seeing that person later on today. I don't know how these things come into my brain.

This happened a few months ago at work.

After brief discussion of the film War Horse, I set about impressing my colleagues with my particularly excellent vocal impression of a horse.

I failed to realise that a girl sat a couple of desks down from us recently lost her family horse a couple weeks before. I was told the next day that she cried in the toilet.

This is actually the first time I've seen it used outside of a 'why do we have this smilie' context :manus:

Like Rex Ryan, I only put others' feet in my mouth.

Have a good day, when it's obviously dark outside. Replying thank you back to a thank you. Usually it's that kind of thing. Nothing offensive that I could immediately think of.

I knew he was going to be brought up in this thread sooner or later. So I dedicate this song to Rex Ryan:

Led Zeppelin-Trampled Under Foot - YouTube

I only put other people's feet in my mouth. And even then, only with permission.

Policy to close a time deposit (CD) early without taking away some of your earned interest money as penalty dictates we may only waive the penalty in the death or incapacitation of an account holder or trustee (for trusts.)

A lady called to inquire since she was the successor trustee (because the first one had died) to see if the accounts could be closed without penalty.

"No, the only way those accounts can be closed without a penalty is if you... uh. are incapacitated...."

Later.

"Had your sister already passed away when she opened the account? I mean when the account was opened?"

I once said good morning at about 9pm during the middle of a football match. One of the substitutes was warming up while I was the linesman and I felt like the biggest smurfing idiot. I could just imagine them thinking "and they let this kid referee our game?"

Hey, it's morning somewhere.

I mess up the "Have a good day"/"have a good night" thing all the time at work.

I said goodbye as a greeting to the school bus driver once when I got on the bus.

That's not ominous at all. I would've been watching you in the rear view mirror the whole time.

"What's up?"
"Good."

"How's it going?"
"Not much."

Last night in chat foa gave me mod status. I was randomly kicking people, and randomly kicked Sephex after he'd had a really bad day, but I hadn't been reading chat at all. I felt like a twat.

Then I felt like a twat for reacting to it poorly. I didn't say anything bad, but the fact that I took being kicked in chat seriously made me feel foolish. I should have figured it was a random coincidence.

I once described a hypothetical situation to a person in which I was supposed to say "if you were somehow incapacitated."

I said "decapitated" instead.

I told a guy I worked with to stop PMSing all over my face. I don't think he took it very well. I thought he thought I was insinuating he was a vagina. I probably shouldn't have said it because I didn't know him too well, for all I know he could be a sensitive soul.

I don't regret saying anything. I guess I can tell the story about how I was acting in film material and there was like an 8 year old kid around, and I loudly yelled "BECAUSE YOU'RE smurfED", and the guy next to me said, "there's a kid right there, stupid". The only thing I felt, though, was wanting to smash the guy's head into a tree for talking to me that way. Why should I give a smurf if there's kids around? I didn't invite him.

I know, it was pretty much on fire, and I could hear the blast beat drum machine from a mile away
