You Can Fool Thumb of the People

Story Sent in by John:

Amy promised to bake me cookies for our date. When she arrived, she handed me a container. I opened it, as I wanted to check the cookies out (and also because the container was suspiciously light).

There were no cookies inside. Just crumbs. I asked Amy, "Where are the cookies?"

She said, "I ate them on the drive here. You weren't supposed to open it up until you made it home."

I didn't follow her reasoning. "But then I still would've asked you where the cookies were."

"How? I wouldn't be there."

"By phone. Or email. There are ways. What would you have said, then?"

She shrugged, then sucked her thumb. She was in her twenties.

Only date.

    Question answered - she would have told you to suck it.
