    what did they ask you? If I were them, I would have asked, "really?" and if you hadnt gotten the hint yet, you would have responded, "really".

    lol dinny. Sorry to see you embarrassed but that was very funny :)

    Dinzy... had a good laugh throughout .. :rotfl :rotfl

    yea.. happens with me all the time..infact I have a huge list

    I remember, whe I was in India.. train never came on the platform I used to stand. then if I used to run to the platform where trains were arriving quickly, trains used to stop coming and instead they used to arrive on the platform where I used to stand :bonk

    Like your dress code incident, one happened with me too, but a little bit vice-versa. Recently there was a temple where Janmashtmi was going to be celebrated, I thought cool I can innaugrate my sareee now. I wore a heavy netted saree, with all the matching stuff and when I landed there, I was the only one who was heavily dressed and in a saree. Everyone had come in their simple avtar and salwar kurta. I was feeling so embarassed and ladies thought I was showing off :-(

    many more to come dear.... nice thread :thumbsup

    this was hear say when I was at school:

    on the same day there was a wedding of a friend and there was a death at a relatives place.

    the man mistook the two places and I don't remember exactly if he went to the wedding first & searched for the dead body or went to the death place and searched for the groom :):):)

    blame it on murphy - he got it wrong absolutely and am not sure if he was beaten up :):):)

    This was in grad school. My friend invited me for her graduation. It was the first 2 months abroad. I had no clue and thought it will be similar to India. I went in jeans, sneakers and jacket. OMG everyone came well dressed in formals. I was like an ostrich trying to hide its head in the ground below.:hide:

    Another incident. It was university desi pub night. So we friends decided to go in dressy salwar and with good indian jewelry. But then it turned out to be like any pub people were all in torn mini micro dresses and we were the odd ones. :drowning I was glad that I had a company. I started talking with another friend when my friends disappeared and came in changed attire ie jeans and dress. I was again the bakra. :hide:
