A Little Misunderstanding
(On of my coworkers is extremely gullible, so I decide to test her on a slow day. My boyfriend has just left the store after visiting me on his lunch break, and my gullible coworker approaches me.)
Coworker: “Aww, was that your boyfriend?”
Me: “Yeah, that was him.”
Coworker: “He’s the same height as you!”
Me: “Yeah, it’s kind of amazing really.”
Coworker: “Why’s that?”
Me: “He’s the world’s tallest little person.”
Coworker: “He’s what?”
Me: “You know little people?”
Coworker: “You mean midgets?”
Me: “They prefer the term little people, but yes, that’s what I mean. Genetically, he’s a little person; he’s just a really tall one.”
Coworker: “Oh, wow! That’s amazing! I didn’t know little people could grow beards like that!”
(I had to walk away at that point, because I couldn’t hold in my laughter any more.)
