Overguessing

Overguessers know just how ruin your humble attempt at impressing them.

Normally you would never be willing buy a pair of True Religion jeans.  But, you just got a pair for $58 at a going-out-of-business sale.  You can’t wait to share with someone about this amazing deal.

Your Friend: Hey there Mr. Trendy Pants.

You: Yeah, but YOU WON’T BELIEVE how much I got these for.

Your Friend: Good deal?

You: Guess how much I spent?

Your Friend: 40 dollars?

You went bowling for the first time in 2 years, and as far as you can remember you’ve never had 4 strikes in one game before.  You scored a 224.

You’re competitive friend: How’d you bowl last night

You: (confident) Pretty good I’d say.

You’re competitive friend: You butthead! You bowled a over 250 didn’t you?

You: ….Yeah.  251.  How did the braves play last night?

You are on a high, because at work today you made the sale of a lifetime.

Your Wife: What’s the big grin for?

You: Guess what happened at work today?

Your Wife: (excited) They promoted you to vice president of marketing?

You: (angry) No…  No I didn’t get promoted!  In fact I got fired!  I have no job, and I can no longer support our family.  And, I spent all of our remaining money on a collectable – it’s the actual boat from the TV series “flipper”.  I am financially inrresponsible, and I may have ruined our marriage.

Your Wife: (crying)

You: Just kidding.  I made the sale today honey.  Please tell me you are shocked?
