OT What would you have done? (very funny)

Today my wife and I stopped at the local fast food place for lunch. Placed our order at the counter I stayed to wait for the food and my wife sat down in a booth. As I was standing there(6 feet back for the counter) an older couple in there 60s came in and walked up beside me and ask if I had been waited on, I said yes mam she said Thank You I said Your Welcome. (Now this is a well dressed Lady and so was her Husband) As she started to walk to the counter out of the corner of my eye I saw something fall from her pant leg and fell to the floor. It was a pair of under(I dont need to go any farther). The place was busy and neather she or her husband saw this or knew it. As they placed there order and waited I stood there thinking to myself what do I do? If I say anything to eather one of them she will be really embaressed to say the least and I dont want to be slaped! As I stood there I could hear my grandmother voice in my head saying...Sometimes its better to say Nothing At ALL! So I didnt. I took our food to the table and sat down and told my wife what I had just seen, At witch time she started to laugh and put her hands over her mouth to muffle the sound! Now the little 75 year old lady that walked in the door didnt miss a beat when she saw them laying on the floor, Lets just say the lady and her husband left rather red faced and upset! Now be truthfull and tell me what you would have done if you were me! Bandit (To keep it tractor related they both had matching black jackets and hats with IH on them)

Your grandmother was correct. I would not have said a thing. Lady might have thought no one else noticed. Good move!

Depends on my mood. If dressed in my work cloth, probably would of poked some fun at her. If in my Sunday suit, probably would of did the same as you.

In embarrassing situations always better to remain silent, some years back the wife and I were at a family reunion organized by her grandmother. A couple who were parents of my wife's aunt had just moved into the area and so were invited to get acquainted with the family. My wife and I were sitting in some lawn chairs and facing the sun, the "johnson's" came over to talk with us and with sun behind her back Mrs. Johnson's shirt was completely transparent. Neither my wife or I said a word, I felt her husband should have that responsibility. My wife and I still joke about it when she is trying on new clothes.

Politely say, "I believe you dropped something"

Then laugh after they are out of earshot.

Bandit,

When I retired in 2000, I went to work part time at Home Depot. One day at the end of the shift, I went to the break room to get my light-weight jacket that I had worn to work that day. As I slipped one arm into the sleeve, I felt something in there. It was a pair of women's nnalert.

I was more than a little bit shocked. I quickly stuffed them into my pocket and left. On the way home, I just kept pondering. Finally the light came on. My wife had washed and dried my jacket that day with a bunch of other stuff. Her stuff must have gotten into my jacket.

Just to be on the safe side, when I got home I showed them to her and told her what had happened. She laughed about it, so I did too.

You definetly did the right thing by not saying anything! The old couple would have been too embarased to eat their meal. Maybe it would have ruined the rest of their day too.

Did you notice how the store's employees reacted when they found it and how they handled it? It was probably the best story of the day for them too.

I really don't know what I'd have done ifi was there. But now I'll feel a little better when a dryer sheet falls out of my pant leg in church. Jim

With the little 75 year old lady going on about it they were quite stuned and it got quiet. They sent a 16 year old boy out in what looked like a Has-Mat suit on to dispose of them and clean up(nothing to clean). He was alittle pail and I dont think he had lunch today. WOW dinner and a floor show. I was the funnyst lunch we ever had. Bandit

I would not have said a word, maybe to my wife if she was along. But there's not a force in this world that could have stopped me from laughing after wards!!

Many years ago my mother told us about a time when she was walking though Penny's she hears a little pop and her undies fell to her ankles. One of my older sisters ask her what did you do Mom. She said hat she just stepped out of them and then kicked them under a table.

I have got to ask this question, if she was wearing pants how did they fall off?

My mother had a friend that worked in the office of a aircraft plant in ww2. The elastic in those days was bad because all the rubber went to the military. She was riding the bus to work and was standing up holding one of the straps from the roof as the bus was full. They wore dresses in the office. She felt her undies fall down and she looked down and kicked them under the lady next to her with her toe. She pointed down and asked the lady are those yours? The lady said oh my goodness ond reached down and put them on. my mothers friend said she always wondered what the lady thought when she got home and had on two pair.

When I was a senior in High School in the early 70's I was dating a particularly friendly young lady. After an evening of watching the submarine races down at the "spot",my mom borrowed my car to go to Sunday school the next morning. When she got to church, she opened the glove box to put her sun-glasses in it.
Alas! an item of female underclothing fell out.
A Tense time at Sunday Dinner....

In her defense, they were probably stuck in her pant leg coming out of her dryer.

If I felt I could work that into words quickly, I might say something to ease her embarrassment- but more than likely I would have just kept quiet.

... Reminds me of a friend of mine I worked with - Walking down the hallway, she came out of the bathroom right in front of me - with the lower edge of her skirt tucked up into her pantyhose in the back...

I panicked for a few seconds too wide eyed to react - took me several seconds just to figure out what the heck was going on back there...

... just as another girl turned the corner between us and quickly alerted her to the problem.

I got slapped with a "were you going to tell me or were you too busy staring at my #()*$???".

A no win situation.

when we were just kids it was christmas time and we were walking across the sears parking lot (REALLY big deal if we went to sears back then, so we had been duly threatened with severe bodily harm if we acted up)following my mom. She was and is the most straight laced woman ive ever met bar none.One of those who never would even drive herself unless it was a emergency because it was un-ladylike. All us boys and my one sister were following her along when her drawers fell down,she just stepped out of them and kept right on walking. She never even missed a step. Of course all us boys ( who loved her dearly, but were as she calls it raised by my dad like "cowboys") couldnt help ouselves and we started laughing like crazy. My older bro bringing up the rear grabbed them up and hollered as loud as he could "hey mom you lost your underwear" and took off running !!!I have never ever seen her so mad or embarassed! (and i dont ever remember her going back to sears). Mom is way up in her 90's now and she doesnt remember a lot.And too many years of living in a redneck family has taken a toll on her dinity, but if you ask her if she remembers that she will still box your ears!

So, were they black with red trim or red with black trim?

They were probably a pair out of the dryer with static cling.
