This is an actual restroom conversation at work.
We had just come back from a meeting at the customer. B, a customer-related contractor was being a major pain; this is normal but only peripheral to the topic.
Unexpectedly, J said "do you know what I hate?" I said "B." He said "besides that. I hate it when I get dressed in the dark and put on my boxers backwards and don't realise it until I go to the bathroom at work."
I thought of a hundred things to say. "I have to be careful with my panties because the back is always roomier than the front and it would be really uncomfortable." Or "I just go over the top anyway." Or "boxers? I've never worn boxers. Briefs, hipsters, bikini..."
But instead I said "I can honestly say that's never happened to me."
Gotta love telling the truth when the back-story is so much more interesting that the story itself! :)
