Can’t Mask Your Embarrassment
(My roommate and I are out shopping. We pull into the parking lot of a thrift store close to closing.)
Roommate: “All right, we’ve got twenty minutes to rob this place. I’ll take the front door, you take the back. Fake guns are in the trunk. And, go!”
Me: *playing along* “Do you have the ski masks back there, too?”
Roommate: “D*** it! I forgot the ski masks!”
Me: “Crap! How could you forget? Well, this was a wash. I guess we’ll have to try again next time…”
Roommate: “Wait! It’s a thrift store; they probably have some inside we can grab!”
Me: *laughing* “Not sure that would work; they’d have already seen our faces.”
(We go inside and start looking around. Roommate grabs something off a shelf and shows it to me.)
Roommate: “They don’t have any ski masks, but we could use this!”
Me: “I think I’d be too embarrassed to rob a store if I had to wear that…”
(It was a Ninja Turtle mask.)
