Yeah, I had a fabulous conversation about my growing clam with the guy at the LFS the other day

A bit off topic, however, my husband use to be a professional photographer and one day I went out into the reception area to bring in his next client. I happily announced to her with a big smile “You can come in now, my husband is ready to shoot you.” Her mouth dropped open, she started to panic and made a mad dash to get out the door!

I was in shock with how she reacted. I know many people don’t like getting their pictures taken but thought this reaction was quite over the top! I suddenly realized how she took what I had said to her and started to panic myself because I realized I had scared the living daylights out of this poor woman out! Needless to say I was able to stop her and explain what I REALLY meant!

After catching her breath, calming down and much laughter the three of us had over what I said, the photo “shoot” turned out to be a great success. :biggrin:

Check out my wife's clam
 

that used to be a title in a post a couple of years ago. After some funny implied comments, the poster became upset at why people thought the clam was so funny. Then the thread's tone changed. I can't find that thread anymore but you gotta be asking for it to post a thread title like that :)

:lol: I have to agree!

dont talk about things picking on your wrasse. or getting a 6line.

Not really misinterprets, but I still get a chuckle…

I get looks at the grocery store when I ask to buy 1 scallop or 1 shrimp…

“Ummm, why are you going to do with one shrimp?”

“Feed my anemone.”

“Feed your what?”

I remember when I found some aptasia in my tank. I went to the drug store and asked to buy one needle. They only come in boxes of 100 (or something like that).

“Why do you want ONE needle?” the pharmacist cautiously asked.

“I have to inject an anemone with boiling water.”

She just gave me a needle.

lol. these are funny stories. my family has got so annoyed of me talkingabout marine biology they just dont tune in anymore, so i thikn i will be ok.
