The Drunk's Intuition
Never question a drunk!
I was shopping at the local supermarket where I selected a half-gallon of 2% milk, a carton of eggs, a quart of orange juice, a head of lettuce, a 2 lb. can of coffee, and a 1 lb. package of bacon. As I was unloading my items on the conveyor belt, a drunk man standing behind me watched as I placed the items in front of the cashier. While the cashier was ringing up the purchases, the man calmly stated, "You must be single." I was a bit startled by this proclamation, but I was intrigued by his intuition, since I indeed had never found "Mr. Right." I looked at the six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual about my selections that could have tipped him off to my marital status. Curiosity getting the better of me, I said, "Yes, you are correct. But how on earth did you know that?" The man replied, "Because you're ugly."
