Unhappy Don't you hate it when...

... your brain malfunctions and doesn't work in accordance with your mouth?

I just said *THE* most STOOPIDEST things ever. In the history of stupid things said.

I just rang a rather important Licensing company to enquire as to whether they received my designs etc.

Me: "Good afternoon, is it possible to speak to Liz?"
Receptionist: "Sure, hold on one second I'll put you through"

*ring ring... ring ring*

Liz: "Hello Liz speaking."
Me: "Hello Liz! ... You did say Liz didn't you?! I thought for a millisecond you said Phil!"

WHAT?!?! WHAT ON EARTH WAS MY MOUTH DOING!?!?!?! WHY DID IT SAY THAT!! How on EARTH does Phil... sound like Liz?!?!? And I KNEW I was speaking to Liz?!

Omg. Seriously I feel like such a twit. I just wanted to die. And normally I am ace on the telephone

Please tell me others out there have said equally divvy things to important people. Please.

*hopes she found it funny or otherwise forgets entirely*

I always thank people for no reason and say stupid things, it's because I tend to talk too fast

Usually something like 'thanks for calling' when I called them.

Hah!

I have a bad habit of saying 'jizz' so it sounds like 'cheers' (FIGHT THE MAN!!!!)...And the other night, a taxi driver caught me out.

'Did you just say jizz?'

Er...Yes.

'Hah....we used to do that in high school.'

Something I've never done in nearly 25 years of living.

Tbh the cash machines are too slow for my water-cooled quad core brain.

You only need to worry if it said "You're welcome" back at you.
