Here is a perfect example of why my idea of humor is so far off from everyone else’s:
Woman approaches me at karaoke…
Woman: Excuse me .. has anyone ever told you that you look so much like Ashley Simpson?! I saw you walk in and I started dialing my daughter!
Jenny: Haha. Actually yeah …. once my friends said that. And then they launched into a discussion about how ugly she is. ….Thanks.
Woman: Oh no! I don’t think you’re ugly! She’s not ugly! I … uh .. I. You just look like her! Uh…
Jenny: Oh no. I don’t think she’s ugly! I don’t think you’re calling me ugly! I just don’t know how to speak to people. Sorry.
Woman: ……
Later on in the evening while I am butchering The Supremes “Can’t Hurry Love” in all my tone deaf glory …
Looks at woman…
Jenny:(into the mic) I bet you’re wishing I was the real Ashley Simpson now. At least she’s smart enough to lip sync!
Woman: ….. (thinking to herself “Why did I initiate conversation with that weirdo?”) …..
