Never question a drunk
I was shopping at the local supermarket where I selected:
A half-gallon of 2% milk
A carton of eggs
A quart of orange juice
A head of lettuce
A 2 lb. can of coffee
A 1 lb. package of bacon
As I was unloading my
items on the conveyor belt to check out, a
drunk standing behind me watched
as I placed the items in front of the cashier.
While the cashier was ringing
up the purchases, the drunk
calmly stated, 'You must be single.'
I was a bit startled by this proclamation, but I was
intrigued by the derelict's intuition, since I
indeed had never found Mr. Right. I
looked at the six items on the belt and
saw nothing particularly unusual about my selections
that could have tipped off the drunk to my marital status..
Curiosity getting the better of me, I said,
"Yes you are correct."
"But how on earth did you know that?"
The drunk replied, "Cause you're butt ugly".
