Single

[Guest thrasher]

A woman was shopping at her local supermarket where she selected 2

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

litres of low fat milk, a carton of eggs, 2 litres of orange juice, a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

head of lettuce, half a dozen tomatoes, a 500g jar of coffee and a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

250g pack of bacon. As she was unloading her items on the conveyor

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

belt to check out, a drunk standing behind her watched as she placed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the items in front of the cashier.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While the cashier was ringing up her purchases, the drunk calmly

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

stated," You must be single."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The woman was a bit startled by this proclamation, but she was

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

intrigued by the derelict's intuition, since she was indeed single.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She looked at her six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

unusual about her selections that could have tipped off the drunk to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

her marital status.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Curiosity getting the better of her, she said, "Well, you know what,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you're absolutely correct. But how on earth did you know that?"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The drunk replied, "Cos you're ugly."
