…Maybe Not. #1LinerWeds

Posted on August 24, 2022 by Marian Allen

I was talking to a friend about a couple we know who were going on vacation. Between her uncertainty about the unusual word she was using and my poor hearing, here’s what I thought she said:

They’re going camping, and they’re staying in a urine.

They’re staying in a yurt.

It’s okay. How can you use your auditory and visual clues if ‘yurt’ isn’t your idea of a camping tent?

You did fine. Clarification or repetition is important.

  I’ve seen some high-end latrines on television that look big enough to camp in!
