I cant remember my best one, but heres a story about a question I get at work sometimes.

So I work at a deli counter and I slice meat and do the hot case where we have chicken and such. Now sometimes I run out of things. People come up and I swear to god ask me, "Why are you out?" Now I have to be nice and polite of course, but in my head "Gremlins came and stole everything ma'am, how the heck do you think I ran out?"

The other story was about this other lady who asked how all my items can be different (totally serious about it) but I forget how it went exactly. :/

Aaoh what about us with not so interesting lives?  :'( Well darn, I can try... I really do like your badge, I saw it on FA when you posted it there but I was too busy to comment it. And a real badge would be epicsauce to have. And a Kaprika one at that.


This is a story about bravery, courage and an epic quest.

 It all started one fair morning when I woke up to find the glaring sun, shining upon my pillow. I recalled that I had many errands to do and tasks to complete this very day so I got out of bed, dressed and washed, preparing for what I had to do.
 I ventured out upon the dusty roads that would take me to my destination. It wasn't far and the weather was kind... a breeze gently caressing anyone it passed. Bird song lead me to a building where it abruptly stopped. And foolishly, I entered.

 It was dark here. Artwork of deformed people adored the walls within. Glass containers with torture devices were displayed like sculptures and there was a faint metallic scent tingling in my nose. All around was strange music and noise. The air was electric as I went further in and suddenly I was pushed into a seat and held down by a force much too great to fight off. I had no choice but to lay there and wait while the music grew louder... louder until all I could hear was that music and that dreadful noise, grinding in my ears.
 And that is when the pain begun. It was as if a thousand claws ripped and tore my flesh. I breathed, and more of that metallic scent rose around me, it enveloped me and turned into a haze so I could barely see. It seemed to go on for hours... the pain constant and slowly spreading. I had no choice but to lay there and wait. The powers were too great for me. Until finally, the force let me go. "What... what have you done to me?" I uttered, afraid and exhausted. There was no answer, but a globe appeared, a globe with the image of me inside. And as I gazed into it, I could see the mark that had been placed upon my back. A terrible, black mark, oozing with blood and I could feel it. Oh, I could feel it like nothing ever before.
 Frightened, I stumbled through the building, seeking the exit, desperate to see daylight again when a shadow whispered "You must seek the ointment if you wish to survive..." and I stopped. "What ointment?" I waited, gazing into the shadows all around me. "Venture south..." is all I heard. So I ran until I found the very door through which I entered in the first place, then stormed through it and stopped only when the birds sang again and the sun kissed my face.

 South, that was what the voice said. So that became my goal. I walked along the dusty paths that lead me south. I was still in pain and my body was tired after what had happened inside, so the journey was tough. The road went into the forest, where trees and bushes had me climb between them. My clothes were ripped and soaking with sweat when I found the cave.
 Inviting torches were at the entrance. Lured me closer, promising no harm. And as I had little choice, I walked inside and noticed how the slick stone walls were lined with more torches. The air was thick and damp and made it difficult to breathe. A deep hum and rumble could be heard within. I found a maze there, and I walked and walked until my feet hurt and the mark hurt even more. I felt lost, alone and I was certain I would die before finding the ointment that would save my life. Slowly, I lost hope. I begun to doubt the voice that told me to go here. Was it all a lie?
 Upon turning around a corner, I spotted a pedestal. Upon it, a vial. It was the ointment! With renewed strength and energy I stumbled towards it, hands grasping the air between until they finally closed around the crystal. It was cool to the touch and glowing faintly like fresh snow on a crisp winter morning.
 My only wish was to find my way out of this maze and return to my home. I had no intention in staying here when I had come this far, so I continued onward through corridors of stone and damp mist. I felt the air cooling and far away, I could hear the birds. I knew I was on the right track, I knew that if I only could press on a little further, everything would be okay. Clutching the vial, I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. Distantly the sunlight appeared, calling for me.
 Suddenly and out of nowhere, a glowing pair of eyes peered down at me and a beast stepped from the shadows and stood in my way. "Oh please, great beast, please let me go. It is only ointment and I just want to return home." I pleaded and gazed up at those glowing eyes. There was a complete silence. Nothing but the gentle crackle from the torches, casting dancing shadows of the two of us. Then the beast reached its hand out to me, palm facing up, as if it expected payment. So I quickly reached for my little pouch and untied it from my belt, then carefully placed it in its enormous paw. "This is all I have, dear beast..."

 At the blink of an eye, it disappeared just as quickly as it had come to me. I was yet again alone in the cave, I was free at last. I left with the magical ointment and I found my way back home where I could be safe once more.
 With the ointment, my wound healed nicely. The pain was soon gone but the mark itself was still present. It seemed like I would have to forever carry it with me.



And that is how I got my tattoo and went to the store and got a cream for it afterwards.  :3

I was walking down the street one day when I stopped in a driveway to chat with my friend and a car backed into me and I fell down HARD. I got up and the guy apologized to me, so I left pretty unharmed. A few hours later I was chilling in a store's parking lot being careful when a car hit me going forward (again pretty softly) and I fell down again. Then a few hours LATER, I was biking down the road when a car hit my handlebar and I flipped off my bike and onto the cement.

and that's the story about how I got hit by a car three times in one day

   After a long and treacherous journey, I finally arrived at the forsaken kingdom. I exited my chariot, pixi box in hand, and began my venture on foot. Waving to my captain as she steered off into the known; I about lost my livelihood as a chariot came to a screeching halt. Using its enchanted magic to create a loud noise to move my body, I kept my head down in shame. Reaching the double doors of entrance, I gave the guardsman my title, "I am sir volunteer Anton", I proclaimed. The guardsman took a long hard look at me, then nodded to the others to let me pass, and so I did with speed, the guardsman are not known for there kindness.
  "Sir volunteer Anton, make your way to the high knight Joul, there. There you shall be given your task for the day. But-" he took in a breath, "I shall warn you, do not dally, to claim your rightful spot at Vordor you must be first to claim your land." I nodded to the guardsman, thanking him as I took my slow walk into a faster pace. Sir Knight Joul wasn't far, but he was somewhere within the labyrinth of this land, even the most experienced of the volunteers sometimes find them self lost within. Ignoring the call of the sirens I kept my head high to watch for dangerous beast, and the ever pesky elven trader that stalked this land.
  "Sir volunteer Anton"
   "Blasted" I mumbled under my breath. The devil eared came next to me, "What is it blade ear" I spat, trying to rid my self of him.
   "My my flat ear, I came here to inform you, out of the kindness of my heart." I remained quite, allowing him to continue. "Your land is yours, sir knight Joul has told me so."
   "Oh?" I couldn't not take everything the elf said to hold truth. "Why would the high knight say such a thing?"
    "Simple, lady volunteer Sam has claimed it for you two." The elf laughed as he ran away, happy with his outrageous news.  Lady Sam was an ill worker, she often would mess up my organization of beverages and couldn't do basic math. When she was given the job to hawk, she would not leave the small confinement of Vordor to yell to the passing pilgrims and would often anger other patroons around my small land. I changed direction and began to walk towards my land; now with less ambition as I hoped I wold have. There stood lady Sam, while a nice person, she often made a you regret coming in from her intolerable babbling that made less sense then all in the kingdom. 
  "So the maker has blessed me with your kinship Anton" she snickered, next to her stood a large group of beverages not even in the cooling chamber. I sighed, i wasn't even going to waste my breath asking why nothing is in its proper order.
  "Lady.. would you be so kind and fetch some ice for our cooling chambers." Without even answering she left. I would hope that she would bring the ice I needed for the pilgrims, but the chances of that were slim. I organized the beverages, the gold, and even cleaned up my small shop, yet I still had no Ice. Pilgrims were began to grow in numbers and I wouldn't be able to serve any if I had no ice, so I called upon a passing witch to watch my stand.
   "I shall watch your stand." she hissed, "but for a price." She snickered, rubbing her palms together. "I want one blue gator of the raid to complete my. eh- stuff."
   "Will red work, that's all we ever get."
   "I guess, it just leave an odd after taste"
   "I know right, over all I'm not to big of a fan of it but whatever...Fine witch, you may have your beverage." With this I was off. Not to far, maybe twenty paces or so, I went to the bar right in front of the store (I mean I could see the witch perfectly that is how close it was). Upon opening the door I saw the large male, dressed in odd clothing that read "Budweiser".
  "Who dares opens the door."
  "A volunteer of Vardo"
  "You wish for my ice, yes? Only take two, you need not anymore."
  "Fine" I swear they act like they do anything hear and that they pay for the ice., all they do is fetch more once the chamber runs low, I thought to my self as I took two bags of ice.
  "Shut the door" he yelled. Not like my hands weren't full and it wasn't hard enough to put the harness on without anything in your hands. After five minutes of fumbling with the harness, I finally came back to my land.
  "Had a little trouble?" the witch asked.
  "Quite you," I hissed, "Take the gator of the aid and be gone." I pored the ice in my chambers, after giving the witch her beverage (of course that must come first), and waited for some pilgrims. Business was slow but good, the pilgrims were much the same. After a while the tax collector came, I greeted her as she grunted to me.
  "Were is your leave" she asked.
  "She left for ice, I haven't seen her since." She nodded pulling out a black pixy box. It beeped then she spoke into it.
  "This is tax lady to Joul, tax lady to Joul. Vordor is in need of a break soon send some one over, thank you." With this she was off. When I was left alone I decide I would have a peek at my pixy box, it was high noon, and I have received three messages, I should probably check them later. I still had a job to do, to attain the pink tail of fluffiness from vender three commonly known as tail guy before he sells all the pink ones. My leave soon came, and I took my earnings to purchase my prize. Tail guys wasn't to far, except I got caught behind a game of cheese, Rat man of course was in the lead, or I think, I'm still not to sure how that game works. I begged for peoples pardons as I made a mad rush for tail man, I could see form a distant he had one pink tail left.
  "Yes. " I said out loud as I grabbed the tail,and handed it to tail man but- something wasn't right I could feel it in my bones. I turned around and saw a young chapple standing next to me, she had two pigtails to emphasize on her youth. "Umm... did you one that one?" I asked her.
  "No.." she began to turn around, her head was down. The tail wasn't for me it was for my younger sibling who had no tail, who wish to have a pink one. I promised her to get a tail, but I don't know if I could live with my self with such a pitiful sight.
  "Maiden," I called to her, "here take this." I handed her the tail. She was reluctant at first, "Its fine I will be back another day, i can get another then. I reassured her.
  "Maker thank you." she sad hugging me. I embraced the child and she left. Though I may of failed my deed, my karma felt good.


And that was one day at rens. fest, just a little more "authentic" if you will :P.

I dont really mind about the badge, but I justwanna contribute :3

I work in a sweetshop and I swear, I must've heard this joke so many times
'hey! it's like being like a kid in a sweetshop! harharhar' and I have to fake laugh at this every single time.

Or people smirking when they ask for rumballs 'Ohai, can I have a pack of your rumballs *snicker*'  I swear after working there about a year and four months it gets tiresome.

Other things that happen are people walk in, LOOK at the shop, which is like bursting with sweets, PLUS the massive sign outside saying sweetshop and are like 'do you sell sweets?' omgod right and one time I said 'no' as a joke and they were like 'oh, okay' and left!

I've never been so dumbfounded ever. Another popular question I get is (not directly related to where I work) but when tourists come and they ask me if I know someone who lives in scotland, and I'm like 'no, why would I? Scotland is like 400 miles away. there's about 20 million people in scotland and about 50 million in england. what are the chances of me knowing them, realistically.'


Oh oh! I cant believe I forgot the best one! A guy came in ( he was English) and tried to pay for something with some euros. and We dont take them, so I kindly asked if he had any english money as we dont take euro. He rustled around in his pocket for a bit and then pulled out some other currency which I have no idea as to it's origin. I said no again and then took out a few notes from my pocket to show him. He noded and tried to give me euros again. I said no again, then he insisted it was the same. By this point I was thinking nobody is this stupid, it must be a hoax.

I just asked him, are you even for real? nobody can be this stupid right?

HE just stormed out of the shop, put not before throwing a packet of fudge on the floor in protest.........

....some people I swear.

Well to tell the truth no one wants to "waste" the time writing up one of the stories becuase most are turned off by  The Great Puncia's story and they don't think they even stand the chance so they wouldn't see the point.

At least that is how it was for me.

I'm often asked why I hate interactive adverts you know the ones they ask you to click and it does something in the ad. Like sweep the floor with a mop (shocking) anyway I hate them becuse one night I was reading some creepy pastas. This one was about a computer some guy found in their driveway (it was awesome by the way) anyway. It was getting to the end and it was 3 am in the morning I was so engrossed I didn't even notice it pop up. And with a death shrieking scream from the computer erupted a voice 


"KILLLLLLL germs with new cilet BANG"


I screamed (I'm really jumpy) and fell out of my seat I stood watching in horror as a generic actress wiped the table. From then on I read creepy pasta with my volume down.

So I think the best part of a story real life story is Irony.
 
So it's junior year of highschool, and because I don't have a car of my own, I have to drive my dads truck to school every day, then let my brother, who usually sleeps for the drive, take it back home. Anyway, it's around 630ish in the morning, and I'm tired. So I'm not really as attentive as I should be.
 
Well I come up to this intersection, and foolishly assume that no cars are coming, cause I can't see down the road anyway, and I pull out just in time for the car that I couldn't see to hit me directly on the passanger side door. Luckily the truck is built like a tank, so my brother was only severly jolted awake but not hurt.
 
Being the man of action that I am, I immediately jumped out of the truck to check on the other driver, he's an elderly man, and had no idea what happened, but he was okay. So I did the whole deal where you wait for the cops to show up, and suffer the embarresment of watching all your friends drive by and just stare at what you did.
 
So after its all over with, I just want to forget that it ever happened, pay the ticket and be done with it. Except I can't, because it turns out that the old man was my girlfriend at the time's neighbor, oh the Irony. And she just so happens to be a good person that takes care of the elderly, so she knows him well. So you must imagine my embarressment that anytime I see her, he's right there to remind me of what I did. To make matters worse, my town is pretty small, so anytime I go any where, he just happens to be there.
 
It's not like he's angry about it, but he just won't let it go.

My crazy teacher

OK so one time in high school, i had this teach who was crazy. She taught histroy and she went on about how it was all fake and nothing happened like histroy says. She did this alto, not only that since our class was almost all female, they where all out on a trip some where ( i think it was cheer leading. ) she said that men are idiots and shes going to have to teach this again to the girl's but we ( males) wont understand the lession even if we hear it twice. another time she said that there is so much BS in the world that she feels like cutting her self. Another funny time is when we went to a museum she had us hold hands and walk through it like we where in kindergarten. I had a lot of fun with her.... i left the group as soon as we eneted, she gave me a detention the next day and another time i got her really mad, she was yelling at the class manly the males and i said calm down miss, your wife wont like it, she freaked all the guys laughed. another really funny time was when some one hid her text book and she couldn't find it she went crazy looking for it.

My crazy teacher

OK so one time in high school, i had this teach who was crazy. She taught histroy and she went on about how it was all fake and nothing happened like histroy says. She did this alto, not only that since our class was almost all female, they where all out on a trip some where ( i think it was cheer leading. ) she said that men are idiots and shes going to have to teach this again to the girl's but we ( males) wont understand the lession even if we hear it twice. another time she said that there is so much BS in the world that she feels like cutting her self. Another funny time is when we went to a museum she had us hold hands and walk through it like we where in kindergarten. I had a lot of fun with her.... i left the group as soon as we eneted, she gave me a detention the next day and another time i got her really mad, she was yelling at the class manly the males and i said calm down miss, your wife wont like it, she freaked all the guys laughed. another really funny time was when some one hid her text book and she couldn't find it she went crazy looking for it.

To be fair it's not half as bad as some of the stuff we did to our teachers. besides you shouldn't make assumptions based on statistics. It's sexism fair and square, you should've reported it as it's illegal.


anyway. today at work this woman came in and, lets be honest, she didn't look great. short, matted hair with unknown substances strewn through it, Dark, heavy bags under her eyes as if she'd been up all night for the past year. Her teeth, well what was left of her teeth were a cheesy yellow with bits of her breakfast still stuck in between them.
She was wearing an old fleece top with stains and holes all over it. Her bottoms weren't in a much better state either.


So she came up to my till and she really badly stunk. I ignored it as well as her appearance and smiled at her asking how she was. She said that she wanted some money for the train to leeds and I said that I was sorry, but I didn't have any money on me ( which was true) and then she was like well can I have some out of the till, to which I replied flatly 'no, it's not my money to give out'. and she kept going on saying like 'just £10' or 'Just a few quid', to which I kept saying sorry but there was nothing I could do, suggesting that she talk to the ticket officer at the station to see if they could work something out. then, out of nowhere she charged at the till I wasn't operating (there was no money in it as we'd just taken it out to count it in the back) and she reached over to try  and take some of the non-existant money, to which I responded in kind. Grabbing her arm, I twisted around to her back and kicked the back of her legs so she was on her knees, then phoned the police while I held her there. about 6 or 7 minutes later a few officers arrived and took her off me, saying that they've had a few incidents with her before but she's managed to get away from them. That was the end of that. About halfway through my manager walked in on me holding this woman down and obviously she was a bit confused until I told her the situation.


But yeah, most exciting day so far hah.

This is a little something that changed my life, I've told it to many of my friends who don't believe me, but I KNOW it happened:


     About 6 months ago, a friend's father died. He was close to me, supported me, and offered me a home away from home at times. He was my mentor for life. And he died one day after mowing his lawn, the heat getting the best of him. The funeral was a few days after... the service was packed, due to his generous personality. After the service ended, I walked outside, sat in my truck, and checked my phone for messages as I was going to powered flight training later that day and it was possible that I might solo. As I checked my messages, a light drizzle began to fall around that baptist church, as if the heavens were also mourning the loss. It caused me to reflect on our times together, and all that he did for me.


     Now, just a few months ago, in the heat of summer in Florida, I had planned a cross country flight down toward Titusville (same as the Kennedy Space Center area  :P ) with my friend (the same one who's father died months ago). The flight down there was delightful, despite the light turbulence, common in the summer heat, even in the morning. So we spent the day  at Kennedy Space Center, enjoying the sights, looking at the last space shuttle on the pad, riding the Launch Experience ride over and over again... It was fun. My friend and I then returned to the airport, about to leave to fly back to Jacksonville, and I took a look at the weather map. There were some small, scattered thunderstorms in the area, no biggie, and a large cold front sitting almost stationary a few miles north of the Florida-Georgia state line, it should be no factor. So we take off, for about another hour of flight.


     Quite frankly, even the best of pilots have mistakes in judgement some times, especially when it comes to weather. Unbeknownst to me, that Cold Front and the massive, killer thunderstorms started moving very quickly. They were covering Jacksonville and stretched about 20 miles to the south of my intended landing point. Once I reached this line of storms, it was too late for me to turn back. The flying time before had taken more gas then I expected, leaving me in a situation that I'd barely make the airport. I had to press on into this huge, towering anvil, made of the finest ice that would kill a man. I dropped my altitude to a barely safe minimum, and I still could barely see the ground. I struggled against the controls to hold myself level as the currents and wind shear pushed my puny aircraft to its structural limits, threatening to tear it apart and leave me tumbling into the white abyss that surrounded me. It seemed almost impossible that I would get to the airport, so I started looking for a road or field to land in. But all I saw was trees, trees, and more trees. It seemed hopeless, either I would I'd crash into the trees and die or I'd crash into the trees and live, leaving myself with multiple wounds and a HUGE insurance bill to pay.


     What happened next still confounds me. The heavens seemed to calm, allowing me to release my white knuckle grip on the control yoke, and visibility greatly improved, revealing my destination within ten miles of my location. The warm glow of the setting sun made the clouds look like fire. But with contrasting reds, oranges, and even blues, that made it look like heaven.  I fire-walled the engine, listening to the power of 150 horses jerk my small plane toward my objective. I set up in the landing pattern and landed, and no sooner did my wheels touch ground, the sky unleashed its fury. Hail started to pelt my airplane as I taxied to the parking area, safe.


     Again, I have no idea what happened that afternoon. And I'm not a very religious person, but I have a feeling that my old mentor was still with me, even after death.




So ya... that's my story/near death experience and I'm sticking to it.

Alright, well this is a short one, but rather hilarious.


I went to the zoo this weekend with my friend who thinks it's awesome I'm a furry and his family. While in the primate exhibit, I was looking at one exhibit where there were only a few monkeys when the one in the back . . . well, let's say he was "Shining his helmet". Seriously! Right in the middle of the exhibit, he just looked at himself, and straight started doing it right in front of all the little kids. The best part was seeing all the parents notice it before their kids and try to shoo them away from the exhibit. Literally the funniest moment of my weekend.

I was driving myself home from a friend's house on a Sunday late last February, about 10PM, and this guy in a black Dodge Neon with a broken passenger side tail light, and a mini spare on the right rear, blazes past me on a double yellow, up a hill.  I touched the horn on my Caravan to show my disdain for his idiocy.  He proceeds to back into the end of a road across from the WaySide bar on county road 581, (we're leaving town by now) and shuts his lights off to wait.  I go by, seeing him there, regardless of how he thought I didn't, and he comes flying out of the road with his high beams on, tailgating me at 60 MPH at night in late Feb.  I put up with him for a little bit, then brake-checked him.  I didn't know the brakes on my van were... bad.  The driver's side front rotor was toast, the friction ring had previously separated from the center hub. (Never made a sound, pads were also toast on both sides D :<) The passenger side grabbed hard though, and both rears locked up.  I was fishtailing a '93 Dodge Caravan at sixty, on dry pavement, on a straight stretch.  Had I not just the Friday before, replaced my driver's side rear shock I would have rolled badly.

The numb nut backed off for a bit, probably thinking black ice.  He caught up again, at the beginning of a 40MPH reduced speed zone that goes past Teal's 581 Cash (store) and starts flashing his entire headlight system at me.  I thought: "Alright [removed], you want to follow me home? I'll show you why you don't."  I took the shortcut home: The unplowed seasonal "Steel Bridge Road".  He followed me, flashing his lights like an idiot for the next ten miles, (very annoying) until I went past a rough, torn up, intersection.  The donut on the back of his car sucked him right off the road, into the ditch.  I haven't seen hide, nor hair, of that black Neon since.  Serves him right.

At least I don't try to raise h3** when I know my vehicle can't keep up.  I even fixed my brakes the next day, after looking at why I fishtailed.

[RAGE]The four letter word that was in there was totally censored, it only had a prefix and a postfix attached to four asterisks.  I deliberately toned it down further than I usually do exactly so I wouldn't get a warning...  The actual swear was 100% censored while still getting the point across.  More attention has been drawn to it than there would have been without doing anything.[/RAGE]

I wouldn't mind posting it there, but that's pending if Kaprika likes it enough to declare it a winner, and then I would have to turn it furry. Which I'll probably do anyway, just because I think it's a hot story.  XP
