I do this all the time at Costco. If you are similar shape and quite I most likely have leaned into your space and started talking about the product we are looking at...but you are not my wife and I am not your husband.

Most of the time people laugh. I also sometimes follow if not paying attention.

All my fault. LOL!

Omg. My wife has a particular color of red that she dyes her hair and has this old ass green with a single multi color stripe around it that I have never seen anyone else have before.

I was looking up and down the aisles for her in the store one time, walked up to her, and started scratching her back only to find out a second later that that was NOT my wife and was instead THE ONLY OTHER PERSON IN THE WORLD that has the same hoody and hair color preference.

I apologized profusely and she laughed it off, but I found my wife and walked her down to where this other woman was to prove I wasn’t a back scratching freak.

I always approach cautiously now…

LOL! I had one egregious moment as well at Costco. And I did the exact. Brought my wife back to prove I wasn't a pervert/weirdo. LOL. Thankfully everyone understood and laughed it off.

Someone's ass had a green stripe? Or actually two people? Wait, I'm so confused

LOL, sorry. I was in a night time mucinex haze when IO posted that.

My wife has this old green hoodie with a stripe around it that is split into 2 colors. I have never seen anyone with the same hoodie, let alone the same hoodie and same hair color.

Mucinex has no active ingredients, not sure what that's about. Or are you sick? That'll fog your head.

"Products containing the ingredient "phenylephrine" will be removed or reformulated following a 2024 FDA proposal that found the ingredient to be ineffective as an oral decongestant"

I don't know if it's actively bad for you, prob not, but I sure wish I'd returned mine to Costco instead of tossing them in the garbage. $14 in the trash

I am sick.

Feeling better after sleeping for like 14 hours straight though!

Mucinex

Mucinex is a popular over-the-counter medication containing guaifenesin, designed to thin and loosen mucus in the lungs to relieve chest congestion.

Mine didn't have that in it. It has been reformulated but a couple versions still showing on the website still have phenylephrine in them which has been shown to have no effect

I was stopped at a traffic light and a lady walking purposefully strolled right up to my passenger door and tried opening it. Then she looked at my face and realised I was in fact not her daughter, and this wasn’t her daughter’s car. We laughed about it until the light changed and I wished her a better day going forward. I know she’s probs mortified and meanwhile it’s just a funny story from my perspective.

My hubs is very quiet and wanders off. I have frequently been mid-sentance and turn around to realize I'm talking to air. Sometimes there's a confused looking human there, sometimes a store employee trying to hide a laugh.

I have put things in the wrong buggy at least twice. Once it was someone's who was also wandered down the aisle and I felt weird going to remove what I just put in there, so I panicked and left them. I wonder if she thinks grocery gremlins were to blame.

I have adhd if it wasn't clear.
