Jennifer S said...

This made me laugh! I won't admit to how many of these, either. But I fall somewhere between male and female on this one.

Odat said...

LOL. I'm not laughing because I do this, I'm laughing cause I've seen it done. It's comical unless you're behind one of these!
Peace

Elaine Denning said...

I don't drive, so that's me out!

Richard said...

What a hoot. Girl you made me laugh on what for me is a somewhat solemn day; Thanks.

Also I should say that I'm the one who is terrible at ATM machines in our family. My wife uses them with aplomb. I fumble for my pin, cuss the machine and finally get it right.

So that was you in front of me at the drive thru ATM yesterday! I thought you lived in G.B.!

Empress Bee (of the high sea) said...

i call the atm's "titless tellers"...

and yes, this is true. it did leave out the part where the men don't get their receipt and then drive off before saying they don't want another transaction!

smiles, bee

Dianne said...

LOL at "titless tellers" !!!

I have been behind one of those, many of those!

Often they also have a load of screaming kids with them. My favorite is when they're driving a Hummer and they're about 5' tall.

I never use the drive-thru. I like to walk, even if it is 10 feet.

Ron said...

Dear me. That must've been written by a woman. Only a woman would remember enough of that procedure in the requisite detail to be able to memorize it and post it down!!

Olivia said...

I loved this and found it hilarious. I do many if not most of these myself! I found your blog via Small Reflections and was intrigued by your Hawaiian name :) Blessings, Olivia

Akelamalu said...

Welcome Olivia, glad it made you smile. :)

Cath said...

This made me laugh (I'm ashamed to say!)
I think I am a mixture of both.
And so are the men....
Theirs should read something like -
1. Drive up to cash machine and screech to halt. Window is already down.
2. Shout over noise from stereo to partner that you need your card.
3. Take card from partner and place in machine.
4. Shout to partner that you need your PIN.
5. Turn music off because you can't hear what partner says.
6. Shout at partner and berate him/her for shouting out PIN.
7. Enter PIN in keypad on machine.
8. Remove super-cool-dude sunglasses and re enter correct PIN.
9. Enter amount of cash required.
10. Wink and drool at female driver behind you whilst ogling breasts of passing girls.
11. Retrieve cash and receipt - give receipt to partner as you don't hold on to junk.
12. Retrieve card and give to partner "for safekeeping".
13. Turn music back on, full blast.
14. Place shades back on face.
15. Hit accelerator hard whilst grinning impishly at females around.
16. Drive around corner out of sight of said females.
17. Remove shades as it is actually raining solidly and you cannot see where you are going.
18. Wind up window and turn heating on full blast as you now have goose bumps you are so cold (and wet).
19. Turn music down.
20. Resume conversation as the character of "partner, husband, pillar of the community".

Akelamalu said...
