A Very Scrambled Shortbus
(I’m the a**-hole in this story. After drinking far too much, a bunch of buddies and I go to this breakfast place. I don’t really want to go, but my buddies insist, so I am barely awake when the waitress comes up to us.)
Waitress: “All right, fellas, what can I get for you?”
(My friends order, then she gets to me.)
Waitress: “And for you?”
Me: “Hmm?”
Waitress: “Food? Mouth? Yours. You know. Restaurant stuff.”
Me: “Oh! Right, sorry. Eggs and bacon, please.”
Waitress: “How you want those eggs, hon?”
Me: “Orange juice.”
Waitress: “Oh… ‘shortbus.’ Your name’s ‘shortbus’ now. I’ll be back with your Orange Juice Eggs.”
Me: “Oh, god! No! Scrambled! I meant scrambled!”
