Grew up with 2 sisters and when I asked why they had these shower things my mum said curtly “theyre just things girls have!” I took that to mean a certain thing for years until my wife laughed at me referring to her ‘fanny scrubber’ pic.twitter.com/XynF2T6y5Z

Many years ago I went on a date to The Natural History Museum. When we got to the Mammoths, I clearly looked a bit confused so my date asked me what was up. I told him that I didn’t understand why they were in the museum, when you could just visit them in the zoo. Yeah. That.

I asked someone to spell “ampersand” over the phone to me in a call centre job because I didn’t know that the official name for the little squiggly and sign wasnt actually “little squiggly and sign.”
