I left a chocolate bar on somebody's chair.
He thanked me.
I started to banter: "I didn't do it, nobody saw me, can't prove anything."
He took back his thank you.
Then I got all sad! What the @#$! did I expect? GOOFBALL.

Bummer! What, the guy didn't recognize banter? Or was his taking back his thank you an ultra-lame attempt at banter? Bummer, it sucks when things that are s'posta be little bits of fun go awry.

Yee-gads! We really *are* twins separated at birth!! I do stuff like this all the time, and feel like a complete dorkus later! (Last time I can remember -- I was watching a waitress at our favorite Thai restaurant adjust a long rug. She looked like she was struggling with it, and when she was done I said "Well now, THAT'S better!" She smiled, but I felt like a total jerk! I told Rondo "Why do I SAY things like that? I'm such a smartass!!"

I swear I've done exactly the same thing with gifts before. I just get weirded out being thanked, so I pop off with something odd, then feel odd afterwards.

If it's any consolation, I would have laughed instead of taken my thanks back if you had said it to me!! :)

(Oh, and logging out and then back in again worked -- can you tell?? )
