Apparently I have found that small demographic that has never seen a band-aid, and they were all at my YMCA tonight.
1st Fellow YMCA-er: Wow, what's that on your forehead?
Me: A band-aid... I have a bee sting.
2nd Fellow YMCA-er: Hurt your head, huh? Is that a band-aid?
Me: Yes... bee sting.
3rd Fellow YMCA-er: Whatever have you got on your head?
Me: It's a band-aid, on my bee sting.
4th Fellow YMCA-er: You've got a... huh, a band-aid... what'd you do?
Me: The first rule of Fight Club is, you do not talk about Fight Club.
4th Fellow YMCA-er: What?
Me: *stepping closer* The second rule of Fight Club is, YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB.
4th Fellow YMCA-er: Um... gotta go see... uh... yeah...
Sometimes the oblique approach is the most satisfying.

I take it these were all guys. Wimmin know what band-aids are. So do guys, but guys arein constant quest for a "line". I think mine woulda been, "Excuse me, Ma'am, but is that a band-aid on yer forehead or are you just really happy to see me?"
Posted by: Bob at September 8, 2004 01:36 PMHA! I am Jack's lost funny bone. That was great! Or maybe I'm just really having a bad day.
Naw, that was great.
Posted by: Blogeois at September 8, 2004 02:25 PMHarvey, I KNOW your attack bee wasn't aiming at my head. :)
Posted by: LeeAnn at September 8, 2004 03:39 PMCoulda answered them, "I can't hear you. I got a freakin' band-aid on my head."
