Interesting stories, everyone
.
Embarrassing moment that pops into my mind:
Okay, back when my family was living in Nebraska, there was this contest at a local store to win a big screen TV. My dad entered for it (but we didn't win).
So, a few months later, my family's back at that same store, doing some shopping, and this time, there's a contest to win some little cart thingy or whatever, something I think you can use on the farm. I notice who I believe to be my dad up there, and I think he's entering to win the thing, which puzzles me, as we don't live on a farm, and I can't recall a time when anyone in our house said we wanted that. So I go up to him, and am just starting to say, "You're not actually going to enter for that, are you?", when the person I'm talking to looks up at me.
Yeah. Turns out it wasn't my dad standing there, but rather it was some random guy entering the contest, and here I was, just about ready to make fun of him for it. I just apologized and quickly walked away
