Was at a family friend’s party today and was talking to a couple who got married last summer. Know the girl from childhood, her husband I never really talked to except briefly last year at their wedding. Seems like a nice guy.
My cousin’s 10 year old daughter was next to me and she asks him “Hey, you look really familiar. Were you a taxi driver in London once?”
Dude works for IBM.
Since my cousin wasn’t at the party, I apologized to him and told her “Ugh, *name*... You can’t tell people things like that.”

That nothing.
Last fall a co-worker on mat leave came in with her new born son. We she left on mat leave & said she was pregnant with twins, she had one with her. I ask if the other one with her partner, she told me that it was still-born. We all knew that she was supposed to have twins.

Whoops, forgot to add the part he works for a large computer company. It just comes off a bit rude... even though she didn’t know or mean it that way

Bah! That’s nothing. Most folks understand that kids don’t have a filter and let these things slide...

I’m going to assume this was a veiled way of saying he was of a different ethnicity?

I think I’d rather drive a taxi than work for IBM.

You quite clearly witnessed the activation of a cold-war sleeper agent.
“Were you a taxi driver in London once?” is the most code-phrase thing I’ve ever heard.
