Why I never question a drunk

howela · 05-28-2007, 03:51 PM

I was shopping at Brookshire's the other day where I selected: A half-gallon of 2% milk, A carton of eggs, A quart of orange juice, A head of romaine lettuce, A 2 lb. can of coffee, and A 1 lb. package of bacon.

As I was unloading my items on the conveyor belt to check out, a drunk standing behind me watched as I placed the items in front of the cashier.

While the cashier was ringing up the purchases, the drunk calmly stated, "You must be single."

I was a bit startled by this proclamation, but I was intrigued by the derelict's intuition, since I was indeed single.

I looked at the six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual about my selections that could have tipped off the drunk to my marital status. Curiosity getting the better of me, I said: "Well, you know what, you're absolutely right. But how on earth did you know that?"

The drunk replied, "Cause you're ugly."

LOL! I've heard that one before. I've seen it on other boards too. It's pretty funny though. Imagine how ugly you'd have to be to still look ugly to a drunk.

My brother In Law lives in Canada and e-mailed that one. I had never heard it and thought it was funny. You are right... how ugly you must be to look ugly to a drunk.

I'm sure you all know the bit about.. the guy sitting at the bar, getting drunk. Girl says to him, "you're drunk" guy says "Yea, but I'll be sober in the morning, you'll still be ugly"
