Today there was a long delay between the time the healing angel was supposed to get out of his job at Dunkin Donuts and the time he actually did. He felt bad about this (I was his ride home, so I'd been waiting), so he brought me a donut:



Whereupon the following dialogue ensued. See if you can find the error.

Me: Is it for ... football?

Him: No, it's for, I think, Ortiz? He's a Red Sox player? Maybe their ... pitcher? That's his number.

Me: So . . . did he do something?

Him: I think maybe he's retiring?

Me (eating donut): Oh. Well, he's delicious. How did you find all this out, about Ortiz and all?

Him: Well, the donut is labeled "Ortiz" in the racks, and I think I heard somebody else talking to a customer about it.

The error
Daniel David Ortiz is a hitter, not a pitcher. In researching this post, I also discovered that he made an ad with Dunkin Donuts, and the ad won them an award. ... Hurray?

Indeed! I envy you the donut -- I'm a Red Sox fan in exile, and I got to see him when he came through Seattle about a month ago. But we have no Dunkin Donuts here, so I'm missing out on that part of it.

Please enjoy this pixel donut in place of real one--although... I could probably send you a real one, in fact. If you have a craving, send me a message via LJ messages!
