| A letter |
Dear Lady in Menards parking lot,
I am truly sorry. Really I am. You were walking too fast. I didn't see you soon enough. I was already buckled into my seat and had shifted to reverse. You were already well into the store when I drove by the doors and I could no longer see you. I was going to tell you. I would have told you. But you were long gone. I would have told you that you had a 12" piece of toilet paper hanging from the top of your jeans over your butt. I hope some nice lady in Menards pulled you aside and whispered in your ear discreetly. I almost wept for you, dear lady, and your humiliation. After I tried so hard not to laugh. It WAS hard not to laugh. But, I want to thank you. Thank you for reminding me to check myself in the mirror and to do a hand swipe over my pants in the back EVERY SINGLE TIME.
An empathetic stranger
PS Be happy I didn't have my digital camera with me! |

Oh, Angie,
The times we do not have our digital camera with us. That would have been a great blog photo. I can picture it now.
I bet no one told her, until she got home and her husband said "honey, get me a beer, I'm watch'in the game.
Oblivious! Men like me. :)
Great post
Eric

muahaha! I'm only guilty of having dryer sheets sticking out from my clothing!! :D

Well, I really wish you would have parked your car to tell me before I walked in to Menards and made a fool of myself.
Heh, just kidding. I would have died laughing if I'd have seen something like that.

There but for the grace of God go I.

What a shame!
(the fact that you didn't have a digital camera on you, not the fact that the woman had such an enormous piece of toilet paper shadowing her.)
-
How come stuff like that always happens when when you don't have your camera? The poor lady but that's some funny stuff :)
P.S. Happy belated birthday!

I was in a meeting last spring, and I kept smelling something that was AWFUL! At the break, the lady beside me stood up to walk out, and I saw that she had well-used toilet paper sticking out the top of her slacks! Just about the grossest thing I've ever seen! I couldn't make myself say anything to her because it was just too nasty!

Now see if that had been me, I would have had my camera with me LOL
