In Her Own Inbred World
(I have a tattoo in memory of my cousin who passed away. We were really close. I always get people asking me about it, but this one is by far the worst.)
Me: “Have a nice day!”
Customer: *grabs my wrist and looks at my tattoo* “Who’s Johnny?”
Me: “He’s my cousin.”
Customer: “Oh! I wanted to marry my cousin once. I was in love with him.”
Me: “Oh… well… it’s not like that.”
Customer: “It’s okay, because he’s my second cousin.”
Me: “It’s not like that. My cousin passed away. I got this tattoo to remember him. I’m not in love with him.”
Customer: “Oh, that’s nice. I should have married my cousin…” *walks away*
