Things you have caused... and watched happen!

I made a Gay Day gaffe myself when I was a railroad conductor.

My customary safety spiel at Frontierland Station often included the warning, "Keep those hands and arms inside the train, the bears are hungry!"

I had been avoiding that particular line all Saturday, but by mid-afternoon it just slipped out --- to great general amusement.

"Are they big bears?"
"Are they cute bears?"
"Can I take a bear home with me?"

So, I just decided to go with it. "Naw, you gotta be careful around those bears. If they get you in a bear hug, they may just never let you go!"

"Oooo! Me first!"
"Really? Promise?"
"My last bear didn't!"

By then it was time to pull out, so I just closed with, "You folks sure have a queer way of lookin' at things!"

The giggling didn't subside until after we arrived at Toontown.

Hmm...to comment or not to comment...that is my quandary... :p:

Blue for me, orange for them. Gotcha.

This one actually left me a bit nervous, so I actually told a manager so they would already know if it got to City Hall...

Two ladies were aboard the BTM train, and one was wearing a shirt that looked like a map of the Tube. As they were boarding, I was on the unload side, so I admonished them to "Mind the Gap".

They looked at me quizzically for a moment, so I looked again at her shirt and realized it was NOT a map of the Tube system.

"It's Middle Earth," the lady wearing it said.

"Oh, that explains the mountain range going through it."

A moment later, I realized why they were laughing.
