Mr. Obvious
A woman was shopping at her local supermarket where
she selected a half-gallon
of 2% milk, a carton of eggs, a quart of orange juice, a head of romaine
lettuce, a 2 lbs can of coffee, and a 1 lb package of bacon.
As she was unloading her items on the conveyor belt to check-out, a drunk
standing behind her watched as she placed the items in front of the cashier.
While the cashier was ringing up her purchases the drunk calmly stated, "You
must be single."
The woman was a bit startled by this proclamation but she was equally intrigued
by the derelict's intuition since she was indeed single.
She looked at her six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual
about her selections that could have tipped off her drunken observer as to her
marital status.
Curiosity getting the better of her, she said, "Well, you know what, you're
absolutely correct. But how on earth did you know that?"
The drunk replied, "Cause you're ugly."
