You know it's going to be a good day when your lunch order number is 69. ?

Double entendres galore! But the one that nearly killed me from holding in my laughter was the time a young petite conventionally attractive blonde came walking right up to me & blurted out "I need some black caulk!"
She knew what she did. I knew. She knew I knew. She smirked when she saw me struggling to keep a straight face. Then I escorted her & handed her some black caulk. ?

Ian Alexander Martin (ianamartin@mastodon.social)'s status on Saturday, 18-Feb-2023 05:50:36 JST Ian Alexander Martin @allenstenhaus About a year ago, we switched to a software based queue system. Before, we had used the usual ‘take a little bit of paper with a number from the dispenser’ variety. Every time we got close to 69, I had to fight the urge to make a joke. “Who has 69?” Not wise. “Looking for 69!” Asking for complaints there. “Now serving 69!” Guaranteed disappointment. Never gave in. A couple of young women did catch me muttering to myself “don’t make a joke don’t make a joke” however. @Mrfunkedude

I am sorry in advance but this story reminds me of the Fork Handles Sketch from the Two Ronnies

Ian Alexander Martin (ianamartin@mastodon.social)'s status on Saturday, 18-Feb-2023 08:02:02 JST Ian Alexander Martin @allenstenhaus Oh Lordy, yes. That is the classic double entendre from the hardware store inventory. One of the more polite and far less frequent ones these days involves someone who has moved from England to Canada and is looking for some lumber, a 2x4, say. In the UK they were (maybe still are) only sold in one length. Here, they can be several different ones. “How long do you want that 2x4?” “Quite some time, really, as it’s going to be part of a wall in my home, so…” @Mrfunkedude
