Was talking about this with a mate the other day and thought it would make for a decent topic

We all have them, what are yours?

I have a really bad habbit of putting my foot in it and saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.

I was once working as a taxi driver and picked a fare up from Lime Bar and Grill in Huyton... the customer (a woman) came out of the bar, and got into the back, as she did the cars suspension creeked, she was a rather large lady, maybe a size 24 or something along those lines... Asked her were she was going etc, so she says "lime street station".

Anyone that doesn't know the area, thats about a 40 minute drive in rush hour traffic.

Anyway, after asking that I asked the woman what its like in the bar... she replied, "its ok for the park (business park its on) i suppose, but nothing special, although they do a good all you can eat bbq on a Thursday which is quite good"... To which I replied "Shouldn't have told me that, I'll be in their every week now, getting fat"....

As you can probably imagine that made the other 39 minutes of the journey rather awkward.



There have been quite a few others aswell, such as me telling a mate who was paralised from the neck down "I can't feel my legs" because I'm so tired... and punching a cash machine because it swallowed my card when I was 17 and calling it "gay" when I had a lesbian colleague standing right behind me in the queue!

Just wondering what everyone elses are.

Contradiction aside from andy, mine is possibly called 'impatience'

I am paid to plan and strategise, have been trained to see problems and look at end game, I am quite good. Problem is in conversation, I can often see the person's point before they do, cut them off then counter it or tell them why it won't work. Problem is most people don't know where they are going when they talk, if they are cut, they cannot follow the rest, I have to stop, go round in a circle and arrive back at the same place.

But that's work, recently I've been doing with it friends and family. Can tell you my wife is delighted this new trait....

My wife calls it being a '*****'.

Completely drift off sometimes when a friend is telling a story, even if i'm very interested in what they're saying.
They pretty much just laugh about it now though and of course I apologise if It does happen 

I can be very very blunt and direct
