I frequently say things that have a double meaning and, of course, am oblivious to my words' possible inference. An example: one day at work I said "Hi-ho" to J, just as the miners do in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. I received an odd look and then the comment, "Did you just call me a whore?" Doh'. Didn't mean that. So sorry.
Well, the other day I had a good one. Ji and I were driving and I noticed that she had some big circular earrings. This is a common style for J. The conversation was as follows:
Me: Are those new earrings?
Ji: Yep.
Me: I like them. They look like you. Big and round.
-pause-
Ji: Are you calling me fat?!
Yeah, definitely didn't mean that. Luckily Ji knows that and just found the whole thing to be funny. Phew.
