I Guess I'll Just Always Wonder

Two things left me scratching my head this week:

  • At work they are collecting food to make a Thanksgiving meal to give to needy families. My floor was assigned to bring in canned tomatoes. I've no idea what traditional Thanksgiving dish requires canned tomatoes. I asked around, including locals, and no one had any idea what canned tomatoes would be used for. Any guesses?
  • While walking to the Metro one morning this week a man who was pulled over to the side of the road rolled down the passenger side window and asked me if I was wearing a slip. I responded in the negative and hurried on my way. Why did he ask me that? Was he just curious? Conducting a survey? Did he need one? If I had said yes would he have asked to borrow mine or to buy it from me?

What a creeper. And the tomatoes are totally weird.

Yeah, creepy. And that guy was totally weird.

Here are my guesses. First, they are gathering tomatoes for a traditional thanksgiving feast for some ethnic group...ones who like tomatoes.
Second, he was wondering why you didn't have an underwear line. He was impressed by this.

I had a guy ask me that the other day. I thought maybe it was showing but it turned out that he had a slip fetish and wanted to talk about it. I told him I wasn't interested and kept on going. Did you really not have a slip on or did you just tell him no so he would leave you alone?
