Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, "Surely I can't look that old.". Well . . . you'll love this one...The stuff is from a lady called Linda...
"My name is Linda. I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist.
I noticed his BDS degree on the wall, which bore his full name.
Suddenly, I remembered a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with the same name who had been in my high school class some 25-odd years ago.
Could he be the same guy I had a secret crush on back then?
Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This balding, gray-haired man with a deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate.
After he examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended St Xavier's high school.
"Yes. yes, I did.' he gleamed with pride.
"When did you graduate?" I asked.
He answered, "In 1995. Why do you ask?"
"You were in my class!!!!", I exclaimed.
He looked at me closely.
Then,
that
ugly,
old,
bald,
wrinkled faced,
gray-haired,
decrepit,
idiot,
asked,
"What subject did you teach"?
HA, HA, HA!
ReplyDeleteHah! Didn't see that one coming.
ReplyDeleteGrinning.
ReplyDeleteI understand the confusion.
ReplyDeleteSo true - as we get older this rings so true!
ReplyDeleteThis gave me a good laugh, thanks!
ReplyDeleteShe taught time travel maybe?
ReplyDeleteSad, but a true situation.
ReplyDeleteWhen I look in the mirror I see a 40-something looking back at me. I suspect other people see something else.
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a senior in High School we had a few teachers that were fresh out of college so they were only 4 years older than us.
ReplyDeleteHa!
