Hey Pandas, What Is A Story That You Never Had The Right Context To Tell?

It’s kind of a family story, but I never find the time to tell it. My great-great-grandfather was a house call doctor in rural Southern Iowa in the early 1900s. He was one of the only doctors in 100 miles. One day he gets a delivery call for a woman called Cynthia, who is clearly uneducated. Dr. Wyatt delivers the baby, writes down the details, and asks Cynthia, “What are you going to name the baby?” The woman looks him right in the eye and says, “Ima name my baby Placenta!” The doctor asks why, and she tells him, “Ain’t it just a pretty name?” Cynthia got a human anatomy lesson that day.

A few months ago, me and my friend went to the nurses office because I needed feminine hygeine products, and just as I said thanks and walked out a boy walked in and he just looked so confused that we laughed about it later.

Then we saw him at lunchtime for our debating meeting

Sure, I've got one I haven't talked about. It was a mostly-normal workday at Walgreens, pre-Pandemic.

One of my co-workers wanted to listen to a sports game and used his smartphone on speaker mode to do so. We had a bit of a rush for a few minutes and than no customers at all for an hour.

The game was interrupted with breaking news. The breaking news was that Donald Trump had won the election against Clinton. Most of my co-workers and I in that area go, "No", "Really", or just groan. The only exception was our photo person with a loud "Yes"! She is side-eyed almost instantly by me and everyone else nearby like she's just stripped down to nothing.
