Re: Mistake of the Day
I went to the library to get a document notarized. I remarked to the librarian about her face mask, "Is that a dog?"
Her reply: "It's the Mona Lisa."

I have varying levels of social anxiety, I'd have been mortified it I'd done that.

Re: Mistake of the Day
In college I worked at a private country club in the Pro Shop. Walked up to a customer from behind and said, "Is there anything I can help you with, mam?". HE turned around and said, "no thanks." I went to the back until he left. Dude had beautiful hair.ManOnTime wrote: ↑Fri Nov 19, 2021 12:44 pmThe Sultan of SoWhat wrote: ↑Fri Nov 19, 2021 11:05 am I went to the library to get a document notarized.

Re: Mistake of the Day
Mistake of [Satur]day:
I said to my grandson that after the replay of the Premier League match I was watching, I would take a nap until the hockey game came on at 7 PM.
"But it is 7 o'clock," he replied.
It turns out that I had been telling time off a desk clock that had stopped at 5:40.
(And I was reminded by him that I had a watch on my wrist!)

Sad. I see 57 men's watches and 130 women's watches on their site. Their ebay storefront here has many pre-owned listings.TheJohnP wrote: ↑Sun Nov 28, 2021 7:11 pmThe Sultan of SoWhat wrote: ↑Sun Nov 28, 2021 6:58 pm Certified Watch Store

FWIW, DiscountShop.com seems to have shut down. They would occasionally come out of the blue with some crazy discounted pricing. Sad to see them go.

Re: Mistake of the Day
So I canceled my credit card with Wells Fargo about 5 years ago, took my checking account to a credit union. I have had a debit card and used cash. Always had good credit.
Well recently I decided hey I'll use credit Karma see where I stand and oh no!!!! 670 (which is not good)
I went to the Credit Union and I was like what's going on? They looked at it and said I'm basically a ghost with no credit utilization. Can't have much of a credit score if you don't use it.
So, now I'm looking to open a credit card I don't need. To increase a credit score, I don't use. All on the off chance down the road I need it. Which won't be anytime soon.
Credit cards man, get one or else.

She gave a tongue lashing and spent the next 30 minutes calling me miss. Today I wouldn't be but at that time I was very apologetic. She didn't buy anything but trashed the candy aisle yelled have a good day miss and left.
Today I know that creature was a Karen and I probably ruined her day.
Edit:
This just happened

Re: Mistake of the Day
I make an effort to respect my mother's independence, so when a smartphone arrived here while she was living at her old place I didn't concern myself with it. Months later when she moved to Texas I learned she had accidentally selected my address when she bought it -- now she could finally upgrade her phone. After making the change, however, she was very unhappy. Fooling around with it I agreed it was extremely laggy, especially for a newish Samsung. So she starts looking into how to return it, only to learn: 1) she had bought it from a 3rd party on Target's platform -- she thought she was buying from Target, and: 2) the return window had closed. It wasn't very expensive, so I suggested she buy another phone: an iPhone from Apple. She said fine, and she gave me this Samsung. I am sensitive about privacy and security, so a smartphone from some rando 3rd party seller on Target is not my thing. And laggy out of the box -- kind of sus. I turned it off and stuck it somewhere. Today I pulled it out and the battery is at zero. I'm like: what'cha been doin' little fella?
