I swear I looked like a bum when I grabbed a slice of pizza with my hands because everyone was using a knife and fork, one of my worst moments

    One of the ballinest moves I ever saw was the hired band at the high-end corporate executive event where I was the cocktail waitress playing “Sixteen Tons”. And not just playing it, singing it.

      I don’t think rich people would bat an eye bat and I at that unless it was targeted at them specifically.

      The internationale though, I think, might get you removed from the stage.

        Hell they’d probably not even recognise what the lyrics are about. Kind of like people playing “Hey Ya” at a wedding

        “bat an eye” ( blinking rapidly in confusion and stress, flinching)

        The Internationale (written in French, so we leave the e on even though we translate the rest)

        Perhaps you were using voice-to-type?

        I agree with both your points

          Thank you, I did not know how to spell the Internationale. Any my keyboard often breaks things, whether I voice to type or physically type.
