The people upstairs

The funniest thing that happened this weekend involved neither of the previous two stories, however. On Saturday night, shopping roommate stopped at Starbucks. The girl working behind the counter looked at her funny because she recognized her, and they tried to figure out how they might know one another. Finally, they realized that they both lived in the same building.

Starbucks Girl: "You know, whenever I meet anyone who lives in our building, I feel like I have to apoligize for my roommates. They are the two loudest people on Earth."

My roommate: "That's funny. The people who live above us are EXTREMELY loud."

They realize that the Starbucks girl lives above us.

Starbucks Girl: :If they are bothering you, you really should come up and complain. They bother me all the time, but they are my friends so I feel bad about saying anything. It would be really nice if you would complain, actually."

My roommate: "So what IS the noise, after all?"

Starbucks Girl: "Well, the two of them share one room (which is the room above mine). One of them is a drum major. The other plays this game, Dance Dance Revolution, I don't know if you've heard of it, ALL THE TIME."

My roommate dissolves into laughter.

The moral of the story: I was RIGHT!!!!!! I think I'm going off to be a professional sound identifier now. :) I mean, this is sort of the equivalent of my saying that it sounded like these people sounded like elephants and finding out that they actually had a pet elephant. (I'm hoping that this comes off as funny as the revelation actually was.)

LOL! That's too funny. You even pegged it right down to the exact game. You're good Ig. What an odd coincidence that you ran into her!

I posted here earlier and now it's not here.

I think I keep messing up these word scrambles.

What I said was, "I asked an OTer what he thought about that "banging noise" and when he found out it was two women, it claimed it was the wicked, wild, lesbian sex.
