My wife and I quote this from an episode of John Oliver (I forget the context). “If you could have dinner with anyone, alive or dead, who would it be?” “No thanks, I’ve already eaten.”
Like when things are similar to that we’ll just say “I’ve already eaten” and laugh.
One time, I bought a giant picture of a spaceship taking off. I brought it home and proudly showed my then girlfriend and our mutual friend, who was visiting. The friend said “nice! Where’s it going?”
I didn’t know the destination of this particular space flight. I had impulsively bought it at a thrift store and done no research. I thought about it for a minute, then said " … Space?"
Turns out she was asking where I was planning to hang the picture in the house.
My physio asked me where I got my tattoo (that she was staring at). Tell my why my brain said “on my leg” and I had a mild stroke before I could say the name of the shop.
I mean even if you genuinely thought that’s what it was asking for, just ceiling is extremely nonspecific
this ceiling
Yeah this is basically just a dad joke.
I’m not a native speaker, so please care with me: how can something be ON the ceiling? Or is the proposition “on” also used if something is attached to a surface?
It’s supposed to be the date I think, not where it’s at lol.
You’ve got it with the second sentence, yep. Something is “on” something if it’s attached to it - so hanging upside-down from the ceiling counts, because it’s attached to it.
I am specifically this kind of dumb
It doesn’t make you a bad person
I am not very familiar with smoke alarms, so this made sense in my brain for five seconds before I realized it (I) was really stupid
They could at least spell ceiling

Rookie mistake.
It’s actually called “the overhead.”
