Traveling down the interstate & needing to use the restroom, I stopped at a rest area. I was barely sitting down when I heard a voice from the other stall saying: "Hi, how are you?"
I'm not the type to start a conversation in the restroom and I don't know what got into me, but I answered, somewhat embarrassed, "Doin' just fine!"
And the other person says: "So what are you up to?"
What kind of question is that? At that point, I'm thinking this is too bizarre so I say: "Uhhh, I'm like you, just traveling!"
At this point I am just trying to get out as fast as I can when I hear another question. "Can I come over?"
Ok, this question is just too weird for me but I figured I could just be polite and end the conversation. I tell them "No..I'm a little busy right now!!!"
Then I hear the person say nervously... "Listen, I'll have to call you back. There's an idiot in the other stall who keeps answering all my questions

I think that very funny, but if I told that to a particular type of person in central London they would call me sexist and Stereotyping and would submit a formal complaint.
This must be the Joke of the Day? What world is he living in? I think he should do his job for free to allow the license to be free? Some thing tells me he wouldnt agree to that? What a plonker, the biggest plonker in the world :roll:

Little boy tells his nursery teacher he found a dead cat. "How did you know it was dead?" asks the teacher. "Because I pissed in its ear & it didn't move" says the boy. "You did what!?" shrieks the teacher. "You know" explains the boy, "I lent over and went Pssst and it didn't move!"'
