    Wilmslowesque situation- How do I recover?

    I think i'm getting old.

    To be fair I do have a hangover and feel like crap for a night out with a mate last night.

    Needed a coffee so headed over to the machine. Grabbed my mug and waited in line behind 5 very fit Irish birds who just happen to be in today. All teeth and short skirts.

    Got to the machine, popped the cup under the nozzle and hit the coffee machine and was just sort of looking in their direction daydreaming. One of them smiled, I smiled back, then two of them. I smiled back. I'm in here MF, play it cool, play it cool.

    Then a third looked over, smiled with a slight chuckle and sort of indicated behind me.

    There was coffee all over the place. I'd put the mug under the hot water nozzle and not the coffee!!! Bollocks!

    They left giggling. :-(

    How do I recover this?

      There is no recovery. You're a fat clueless so I suggest your only way out is

        Spill some coffee on your trousers on the off chance that one of them's into WAM (wet and messy).

          That is a good thing - you got them smiling and they noticed you!

          Now, weigh up which one you like the most, balance up against the one you have the best chance with and get yourself a lunch date

            I have an image of those comedy wind up false teeth.

            Arm wrestle a colleague in front of them. That'll recover it.

                  tell them you are an international mastermind who has worked out how to get free coffee and free silver dollars from machines.
                  the only problem is switching off the flow once it starts.

                    Just wake up.

                    Then you'd realise it was just a dream.
