Awkward funny moment with my aunt and uncle last weekend...

[bleedingangel84]

My aunt, uncle, and I were eating dinner at a restaurant before we embarked on our shopping last week. I heard them talking about shagging. They were referring to the style of dance, of course,  but my slash-inclined brain took that conversation in an entirely different manner. It was all I could do not to burst out with laughter right there.

I'm aware of both of those things. Several places my dad used to live had shag carpeting, and he talked about it sometimes. He was also an enormous flirt who liked a girl with a shag haircut when he was growing up. Most of the time when you hear shag here, though, people are talking about dancing. It's quite popular around where I live. It just struck me as funny right then, because when I heard it, my brain substituted the sexual meaning. That's when you know you've read too much slash! Lol! I wonder sometimes if I wasn't born in the wrong decade. I get called old-fashioned fairly often because I prefer things that most people consider obsolete or outdated. my uncle told me the other day that I'm starting to look like a "pot-smoking hippie" because my hair is getting so long. I took it as a compliment. :)
