This is a true story. Sometimes the old punch-lines are the best – especially when someone sets you up so perfectly!
One day I was on an elevator that was so crowded, no one could move a muscle. We were quite literally packed in like sardines. I was carrying a briefcase, and was flush against the rear wall. A woman was in front of me and my briefcase was jabbing her in the back of her thigh. I felt bad, but there was nothing I could do about it as there was no room to maneuver. Finally I said, “Ma’am, I’m sorry. I don’t mean to be jabbing my briefcase into your leg like that.”
She said, “That’s NOT my leg.”
I said, “That’s alright. That’s not my briefcase.”
The elevator exploded with laughter.
