I'm probably going to wish I hadn't asked this, but why??

I had never previously known there was in this world something called Dog vomit slime mould. I rather wish that was still the case.

As to the thread title, many years ago my younger sister told me she greeted a not-seen-for-awhile friend with a beaming smile and a "When's it due?", only to be met with a stony glare. The kind of mistake, she said, you only make once.

Been there, done that! 😆

"So, are you the mother of the groom?"
I once asked, of a female member of a wedding group on the eve of a wedding taking place at a holiday resort, where I was staying for a week and had got to know some of the group socially.
I wished I had never asked that question when she replied "No, I'm the bride!"
Oops....

Also known as Scrambled Egg Slime.

That reminds me slightly of a story my Dad had.

Seemingly, he has never been very good at noticing family resemblances between parents and their children, but one day years ago, he was talking to some people and he was certain they were parent and child, so he said so.

The parent looked a bit amused and announced that no, their 'child' was adopted. D'OH!!

That's the kind of thing that only my Dad would do🤦‍♂️😆

Reminds me of advice I saw some years ago, along the lines of “never suggest a woman is pregnant unless you can see the baby’s head”
