H2-Slow, Part 19

(I am chatting with friends when I notice the “best before” date on my friend’s bottle of water.)

Me: “Oh, look at that; you’re lucky to get millions-of-years-old water right before it goes out of date.”

(The man next to us bursts out laughing.)

Friend: “Huh? I only bought it today, so of course it’s in date.”

(The man laughs louder.)

Friend: *turns to man* “What’s so funny?”

Man: “Did you not hear what she said? She was talking about the age of the water… Oh, just forget it. It’s no longer funny if I have to explain it.” *shoots me a grin*
