Don't you hate it when...

[Pheebs]

... 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.

I said thankyou to a cash machine by mistake the other day

[Desmo]

I have a habit of saying something like "not too bad" before somebody has even asked how I am :/

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.'

Ooooh i almost forgot.
I got a bit mixed up at the doctors the other day... They asked if my son had been on any medication, and he had had anti - biotics not long before, which were called fluoxacillin (sp?)

I actually told the doctor he was on Fluoxetine

oops.

On a similar note, I oten go 'How are you?', get the answer 'Fine, how are you?' and go 'I'm good, thanks, how are you?' :/
