I worked with toddlers and pre schoolers for three years. Sometimes I accidentally slip and tell a friend to say bye to an inanimate object (“say bye bus!”) & occasionally they unthinkingly just do it.

I’m glad there’s a teacher version of “accidentally called teacher ‘mom’”

when I worked at Medieval Times occasionally I would slip in real life and call people “my lord”

One time during family prayer, dad began: “our father who art in heaven, American Airlines, how can I help you?”

One time my dad went to the White Castle drive-thru and the lady (who was supposed to say ‘Welcome to White Castle, what’s your crave?’) asked, “Welcome to White Castle, what’s your problem?”

She apologized profusely while my dad proceeded to lose his shit laughing.

Yesterday I went to Wendy’s and the girl said “Welcome to McDonalds” and then just sighed

Somebody in the elevator asked me what floor I lived on, and I answered “please open your books to page eight”, and we just kind of stared at each other, blinking.

i work retail full time and my script gets frequently messy - ill ask the same question twice, or say “$2.60 is your total” while handing back their change, or say “how are you doing today?” instead of “have a good day!” like name it ive bungled it

but anyway, this lady came thru my line buying a book and the review on the front said: “few books are well written, fewer still are important, and this book manages to be both”

as i handed her the bag i was trying to say “thanks, youre all set” and instead my brain mashed up the review and i said “thanks, youre important”

there was this short pause in which i tried to figure out what the fuck id just said. she blinked and then said “oh thank you! youre important too!”

the real kicker was one of my coworkers. when i was relating this story later his response was “at least you said something NICE. last week i accidentally combined ‘youre welcome’ and ‘no problem’ into ‘youre a problem’”

Idea for Gorochu

After finding out that Pikachu was originally gonna have an evolution after Raichu, I started to think of how Nintendo could incorporate Gorochu in modern games and came up with this idea.

Make Gorochu a fossil pokemon and the original ancestor to pikachu and pikachu clone pokemon.

For those who want to know what I mean by original/common ancestor just watch the video here

Gorochu’s fossil would be found in an area where pikachu and pichu are commonly found like in dense forests or in places where lightning storms were common. Of course, it would be Rock/Electric type being a revived fossil pokemon.

Not only would it be a nice callback to Pokémon’s developmental stage but would explain why there are so many pikachu-like electric pokemon in-game.

Does anyone else have a parent that when they see you're too into a thing, they stop sharing your excitement and do everything in their power to distract you and make you normal again?
