oh, entendre
Quest and I met at the Hub today. I hadn’t had breakfast, so I got me some eggs. The boy behind the counter gave me a number: 62.
Boy: This is your number.
Me: Hooray! I like that number.
Later, the boy brought my food over.
Boy: Here you go.
Me: Thanks! Here’s my number.
[boy leaves]
Quest: Lizard, you realize you just said to him, “Here’s my number”?
Me: Oops! I didn’t think about the double meaning.
Then I started laughing and couldn’t stop for about four minutes. Even as I type, I giggle.

Matt (pensively): Liz, shall you check your e-mail and read my draft of my teaching philosophy when you get a chance?
Liz (confidently): Yes, Matt. I shall!
