I laughed hysterically when I read this one, since the bedroom in my Guelph apartment is way too small to house anything but a twin bed. This is just the experience my husband and I are going to have, when he comes to Canada, one day.
IN OUR LOCAL department store, a salesperson was waiting on a young woman whose recent wedding we had both attended. The new bride asked to see twin-bed sheets. The clerk bit her lip as she rummaged through the packages on the shelf. Finally she burst out, "It's none of my business, but twin beds? You're practically still on your honeymoon!"
It was the saleswoman's turn to blush as the bride picked out one package of sheets. "You're taking it for granted that we have two twin beds," she replied.
