Come again?

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, at work I asked a cute, albeit slightly large customer, her name. Being hard of hearing, I thought she said "Porky" and asked her about it. Turns out she'd said Courtney. FML

Th th th that's all folks. Ah I made myself lol.

Why wouldn't you just say "sorry, I didn't catch that. Can you repeat your name"? I guess you don't go far with the ladies

lmmfao yes I am weezy but I ain't asthmatic

That's when you say, "Im sorry, I didn't understand, could you please say that again?"

That's when two things happen. A) OP still can't understand the customer B) The customer says "never mind"

Your description and the given name sound like a girl I know...

I'm hard of hearing too so I know exactly how I feel. I'm missing a hearing aid and it doesn't help just having one :(

Your like me I'm hard of hearing too but smooth -.-

I'm sorry, I don't see the big deal...

why on earth would you think she said porky ? lol. if i asked someone their name and i heard 'porky', i would say, 'im sorry, i didnt catch that'. saves you from an embarrassing situation.
