If you say it quietly....
Have you ever noticed
that when a doctor type person has to ask you a slightly "personal" question, like "Are you sexually active?" or "When was your last period?" they ask you in a whisper, as if saying it quietly makes it seem less intrusive.
But it doesn't work.
You still end up answering them in a normal tone, and boom, it's still as public as it would have been if you had been asked in a shout.
There's my wonder for the day.

i feel sorry for my dad because every time you get an x-ray (at bb anyway...), and i have had many, and your a girl, they ask you all that kind of stuff- pregnant? period? normal boobs? etc, to make sure they're not giving you cancer.
and every time i've had an x-ray, my dad has been in there with me.
so he gets to hear about all that stuff at least once a year.
but hey, at least it catches him up.
and at least he knows his little girl doesnt have cancer.
