Have you ever really put your foot in your mouth? Figuratively, I mean.
I was out at a pub tonight. The publican was an extremely overweight lady, who's weight was all at the front. I originally thought she was extremely pregnant, then disregarded that in favour of just being fat.
Whilst chatting to the publican, (I was only listening with half-an-ear) my companion made reference (I thought) to her "addition" and I perked up and said "oh, are you expecting?" She glared at me, and said "no!", and excused herself to the ladies room.
Afterwards I found out my friend was talking about us "auditioning" her pub as a future watering hole...not "addition". Oops!
Has anyone else put their foot in it, or am I the only one?
