dear god, this isn't a parachute, it's a knapsack!

we had our office birthday celebrations for august this week. i found out that it was someone in our groups birthday afterwards (they had forgotten his name on the list). we sat around and were talking about an upcoming trip of his, and he mentioned some movie, which i thought was from the early 80s. i said something along the lines of, "oh yeah, i've heard of that movie, it's pretty old." turns out it's not quite as old as i thought. it's from the 90s. but anyways...they were like, "oh, you think we're old." i kept trying to deny that i thought they were old. i said how i thought the movie was a lot older, and while that is not old for a person, it is kind of old for a movie. i felt like i kept digging myself deeper. a few days later in our team meeting it came up again. i told him again that i didn't think he was old. my boss then wanted me to tell a joke, i had none. see what happens when you try to talk to your co-workers? you end up accidentally insinuating that they are old, and they bring it up (jokingly at least) for the rest of the week.
