It made me smile.
C'mon who HASN'T walked around with a sticker, tag, stains that you were unaware of all day and nobody - not a coworker, good friend, commuting buddy, NO ONE has said a word to you?
Probably most everyone has, unless you are anywhere near Susan Snippets.
I have a long history of telling friends/family and complete strangers....
"Excuse me, your tag is sticking up."
"Your zipper is down."
or one of my more recent encounters this past summer, while waiting for friends to arrive at our local farm team's ball field, a woman walked past - a short, round woman with quite-obviously-new jeans on, bearing a sticker displaying "Size 16 SHORT" running down the back of her right leg. How could I NOT tell her?
And years ago, on the train home, a good friend sat down across from me and started talking...she had poppy seeds stuck into the gaps on both sides of her front teeth - I just started laughing - which agitated her and made her say "What the hell is so funny?"....and unfortunately, the more agitated she got, the more I laughed, until tears were streaming down my face. I finally was able to tell her to get out a mirror and look at her front teeth. She had eaten a hot dog on a poppy seed bun for lunch and then spent the rest of her work day meeting with clients, attorneys, etc. and no one told her.
After calling me an "a**hole" for laughing so hard, she thanked me.So I do tell people about stickers, zippers, poppy seeds and such.
but try not to laugh too much
