They walk among us (Scary)

I received this email from a friend and wanted to share it with you.
I walked into a Blimpie's with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a sandwich.
I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little chalkboard that said "buy one-get one free". "They're already buy-one-get-one-free", she said, so I guess they're both free".
She handed me my free sandwiches and I walked out the door.
They walk among us and many work retail.
====================
A friend of mine bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old
fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: "Free to
good home. You want it, you take it." For three days the fridge sat there
without even one person looking twice at it. My friend decided that people
were too untrusting of this deal. It looked too good to be true, so he
changed the sign to read: "Fridge for sale $50."
The next day someone stole it.
They walk among us.
====================
One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when one of them
shouted, "Look at that dead bird!" Someone looked up at the sky and said,
Where?"
They Walk among us!
====================
While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which
direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him
up every morning. She asked, "Does the sun rise in the north?"
When my brother explained that the sun rises in the east, and has for
sometime, she shook her head and said, "Oh, I don't keep up with that stuff.
They Walk Among Us!!
====================
I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got a
call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open. I
told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week." He
responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?" Wanting to end the call
quickly, I said, "Uh, Pacific."
They Walk Among Us!
====================
My colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we
overheard one of the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn she
got on her weekend drive to the shore. She drove down in a convertible, but
didn't think she'd get sunburned because the car was moving."
They Walk Among Us!
====================
My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car designed to cut through a seat
belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk.
They Walk Among Us!
====================
I was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring
attached to an earring by a chain. My friend said, "Wouldn't the chain rip
out every time she turned her head?"
I explained that a person's nose and ear remain the same distance apart no
matter which way the head is turned.
They Walk Among Us!
====================
I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to the
lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up.
She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional
and I was in good hands. "Now," she asked me, "has your plane arrived yet?"
They Walk Among Us!
====================
While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to
go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut
into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding.
Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces."
Yep, They Walk Among Us!
====================
They walk among us, AND they REPRODUCE!

I had a good laugh over this, especially the fridge one. It reminds of when we had "hard rubbish" to put out, for the council to collect the next morning. At 6am, my daughter heard the noises, it was all stolen. So from now on, whenever we have rubbish, even with no back on an old TV, you can be sure if we leave it out the front it will be gone by the next morning.

Oh boy are these so funny. And yes if it's not bad enough they walk among us...it's the reproducing that gets me...lol It reminds me of one time when I was in a particularly foul mood. I had to go out and look for a Christmas tree for the group home I managed and the weather was lousy, cold and snowing. I brought the three of the ladies I worked with along to pick it out. We parked the car and proceeded to the tree area. All of a sudden this guy pops out of no where and says "hi you folks here to buy a tree" Before I could even think...my mouth said "no we are all here for a damn picnic"..some people are just so dumb...lol Thanks for sharing I love it and am passing it on.

*L* this was funny. I'm sure we all doing this DUH moments. I do them too. NO not any of these! haha!! But others. You know you just dont think, your tired, or truly dont get it. Either way you too have these moments!
I have one for you ENJOY! True story! Honestly true happened to me! :)) You might not laugh but I thought it was really funny at the time.
I worked at LEGO STORE in Anaheim. An hour from Legoland the themepark. NOT the same thing. But on a constant base at least once a day people would come into the store and call it "legoland" and it annoyed me so badly!
So it was raining one day, really hard. We didnt sell poncho's at our store. We were located in downtown disney, and at the disney store by disneyland they sold poncho's WE DID NOT! However this lady comes up to me:
Lady:"Do you sell poncho's?"
Me: "No we dont. They sell them at the disney store, its out the door to your right."
Lady:"But I saw someone in the store with one that said LEGOLAND"
Me: "No we dont sell those. They sell some other ones at the disney store, its out the door to your right."
Lady:"But isnt this LEGOLAND?"
Me:"No"
Another Guests:"Legoland is a theme park"
Lady:"Well what is this place called?"
Me: "The Lego Store"
Lady: "So you dont sell poncho's?"
Me: "They sell them at the disney store. Out the door, to the right."

Oh my this is funny.. And they reproduce!! No wonder human beings are getting stupid one generation after the other. But there's one thing I'd like to point out - does this apply to people of all race? LOL no no just joking. Really.
This is a very good joke that pokes at people who take their brain capacity for granted. Well, just glad I make full use of mine. =)

Whiteheather, I have given you a + for such a delightful and real, post. I have encountered a simular situation like the last one in the pizza place. About 20 years ago, we were in Georgia, and my husband asked the waitress what size the pizza was. She said that if he were hungry she would cut it into 8 pieces, but it only came one size with 6 cuts. She was very serious. Hehehheh. So, they do walk around us.

These are hilariouos. I have one...
A friend of my brothers was an executive for Universal Distributing, a big time record distributor and he used to get me freebies for rock concerts. The seats were press seats and record store & club owner comps and they were always good. I would request them for any friends who asked me but they occassionally didn't show up and didn't let me know leaving empty seats in the best part of the house. My brother's friend was always told about it and I felt bad. Once when I was at the concert and saw that some seats I'd given away tickets for were empty, I went outside and scalped the tickets. They were VERY good seats so I got top dollar. After that, I only sold tickets to my friends and they always paid and they always showed up and they kept coming back for more....They Walk Among Us!

Well dear all these incidents do happen in everyone's day to day life and the person might not even notice that at times. We are humans meant to commit mistakes, nothing new or extra-ordinary. The only difference is that when others commit ,we laugh and when we commit others laugh.
These cannot be stopped or be monitored all the time, it's a part of life and a simple mode of entertainment for people around.

Whiteheather that was a riot!! : )
These stories you told could become a book if these are your originals. TOO DANG FUNNY!!!
Read this one; a true story:
I work graveyard- 12:00 midnight-8:30 am. I was flailing my arms to try to get the attention of the busdriver who appeared to not see me in the dark.
When I got on the bus I said, "You almost drove right passed me."
He said, "This is the time of year you would want to flash a flashlight to make us aware that someone is at the stop."
HUH? THEY DO WALK AMONG US and they drive amongst us. : )

Wow, just wow. Those are some pretty remarkable people...in the sense that i don't see how they can breathe with their stupidity. People like this should definitely not be allowed to reproduce. Their nasty little spawn would only inherit their stupidity and we would end up with a world overpopulated by morons!
