"All messed up and looking funny" -faulty hearing

[tearhead]

It started last night when an ad about the new Mini Cooper convertible came on. A discussion ensued about Mark's current Mini,cars, commuting, etc. and then he said, (or so I thought) "In 18 months I'm buying a Lamborghini." Upon further review (and after picking myself up off the floor) it turns out what he actually had said was, "in 18 months I'm trading the Mini." Fast forward to tonight. He comes in the house and says (or so I thought) "You're all messed up and looking funny." What he actually said was,"You 're all dressed up and looking fine." Again! (In my defense, I was wearing a perfectly ordinary sweater and slacks, neither dressed up nor fine.).
We laughed and laughed!

Still, maybe I should get my hearing checked. Of course it 's more entertaining this way.

Thats too funny! I have been a victim of the not so funny part or atleast the back of my head thinks so when I walked in the door and my wife was washing a large pan I picked for cooking over a fire. As I was turning a way from her I said "My thats a large pan you have there sexy!" Not quite sure how she heard, "My thats a large butt you have their and not sexy!" A few minutes later I came too from her smacking me in the back of the head with the pan and I was able to explain what I said too her. Needless to say that was wife #1 and with #2 I always make sure I'm facing her when I say anything with the word Large or anything else that can be construed for the same meaning
