Pure Oxygen For Me Please
Some classics portraying I, shooting my mouth before I breathe in oxygen:
1) To Mr. Gecko's cousin (first meeting): "So how much your company pays you huh?"
The cousin's eyes popped when I questioned him. Mr. Gecko warned me NEVER to ask that kind of question to anyone he knows ever, ever again. Ok.
2) To one missus from Mr. Gecko's gang (Bumped into her with her boyfriend while I was shopping alone: "Wah! I couldn't recognise you. You look so office." The missus gave me a blank look.
Freak me! I really meant - first time I see her in office wear so I was not used to see her in this kind of attire. By the way, she does look good. Till today, I have no idea if she takes offense what I said that day.
3) To a friend of mine (Abit butch looking but not sure if lesbo): "So you have boyfriend already?" She did not hesistate to shoot me down.
I had to be reminded not everyone liked this kind of question posed to them. Sensitivity is so not in my dictionary loh.
4) To one hoity-toity customer when I was in a part-time job: " You are like a mosquito buzzing around my ears"
She's a lawyer and threatened to sue my pants off. Really - my boss had to step in and apologise on my behalf.
These days, I tend to be more conscientious with my big mouth. I have no money to fight lawsuits lah. If I had ever hurt you unconsciously before with my insentitive usage of words or at the wrong timing, please do forgive this dork.

I am still learning to breathe in before I open my mouth to speak.
