So today I started my training for my new job at WestJet and the guy who was training me was telling me stories about stupid things that passengers say/ask/do and one of them was this old lady that wanted to switch her window seat to an aisle seat because she had just had her hair done and didn't want the wind to mess it up!

  • And yes, I know this is an old blonde joke, but I laughed my ass off...
    He said the old lady didn't seem to be joking, he laughed when she said it and she just looked blankly at him :D

    That's the thing!
    He thought that the old lady was trying to tell him that joke, but apparently she was serious!

    :D I can see my G-mom saying something like this!!
    One day she busted out with the word 'loco' saying something along the lines of... "You didn't know your grandma was Loco"... I was nearly on the floor laughing! All she watches is judge judy and regis and kelly...so where she got it from I don't know, unless she's taken up watching 'Dora the explorer" ;):p

    I remember watching a big football match on tv, my grandad was there, and he found it incredibly confusing that the one team had a guy by the name of Sharpe (Graham) playing for them, yet the other team had the electrical company 'Sharp' advertised across the front of their shirts....."so that's Sharpe is it?" "No, Sharpe playes for Everton dad, they're the ones in blue" ...and so it went on :o:D

    A real Abe Simpson moment :)
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    You meet some hilarious old people in pubs in London.

    I met this old drunken Irish guy who told me he was wrongly imprisoned for the IRA's 1996 Canary Wharf bombing. He swore it wasn't him but that he spent 6 months in custody for it.

    A few pints later he told me he was the leader of an IRA active service unit and that he was in fact the bomber.

    To this day I don't know if he was serious or just a nutter. Either way it was funny as hell, the way he said it.

    Oh, and I also met a guy who claimed to BE Guitar George from Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits.
