Have you ever been listening to someone and they say the stupidest things?? And they keep on talking, either not realising what they just said or because they hope you won't notice. I always notice and will crack up laughing.

Mu aunt is notorious for speaking without thinking. One time, while speaking about her son, she said 'before I had J, I was pregnant...' And all this time I thought he came from the cabbage patch!! Glad she cleared that up for me!! Another time, her hubby had been out in the yard and it was rather muddy, and as he started walking inside she stopped, pointed at his feet and said 'don't you dare come inside with those feet!!' He was a bit lost as what to do, wishing he had brought his 'other feet' outside with him. There are heaps more but these are the ones I remember the most.

One girl I hung around with in high school was actually quite smart but some of the things she said had you wondering where all those top grades came from. The classics were 'I had a brain scan but there was nothing there!' or 'don't look at me as if I had two eyes!' Maybe there was another one hiding under that blonde hair of hers...

I'm no stranger to this phenomenom either, I'm ashamed to say. There was a story a few years ago on the news about a woman who had been murdered by her husbands woman-on-the-side, and was found in the boot of her car. The story was called the 'Body in the Boot'. One day without thinking, I asked my boyfriend, how on earth a full grown woman's body could fit in a boot (thinking shoe). Going further, I said 'even if you cut her up into little pieces, she still wouldn't fit in one'. Ooops! Then it clicked - the boot of a car!!

It's always good for a laugh when someone says something without thinking...
