interesting words i've heard, in no particular order
"I'm pretty sure I've been to Brokeback Mountain." Spoken to my best friend by her 8-year old son.
"Would you like me to feel them?" From a cute clerk at Wild Oats when I said I couldn't tell if a package of coffee was ground or whole bean.
"I'm freaking out about living forever after I die!" My son, age 8, in the midst of playing merrily
"You've aged very well." Said to me by a classmate from HS - is this a compliment??
"When you don't wear makeup, you look, like 41 or something - really old." Again, my darling son; seems to me this rather negates the comment from my old classmate.
"I understand you have a husband, but I would very much like to be with you." This may or may not be what it seems - it was said to me in halting English by an Italian man at the Singapore Art Museum last December.

You have some very interesting experiences, young lady.
That first one is a bit scary; the last? You go, girl!
The hype bears out. I found it more than amusing!
I'm pretty sure I've been to Brokeback Mountain, too. It's not all it's cracked up to be. And when I don't wear make-up? I look 12.
(I can't possibly imagine another meaning for the last one...)
so what was the verdict?
ground or whole bean
those clerks need to learn some uhhhhh.... manners... lol
