There was a time in the Bond franchise that the innuendo got a little
less subtle and they just started using the word 'pussy' in the
tittles and for women's names. This fact played into one of the best
unintentional comedy moments of my life. My friend Cole and I were
over in the next town over looking for a movie to rent and when we
found one we took it up to the checkout girl and she looked up my
account which had a late fine on it. Pretty routine for someone of my
impeccable self discipline and responsibility. She scrolled down the
list to tell me what movie the fine was for and then she started to read
the name of the Bond film confidently, “Your late fine is for Octa.
. .” and then she saw what the rest of the tittle was and got
really self conscious, broke eye contact, lowered her eyes, and whispered, “ . . .
pussy.”

It was one of the funniest things I had ever seen or heard so Cole
and I instantly broke down laughing. I asked what movie the fine was
for again and this time she whispered the whole tittle, with eyes averted and still with the
pause, 'Octa. . . pussy'. I can only imagine that she thought we had
somehow found, rented, and negligently over kept the only adult film
in the immaculately family friendly establishment. She was now worried
that the sort of person who would rent something like that was the
sort of person who was a pervert and not to be trusted. I asked a
third time just to see how long she would do it and she just turned
her monitor for me to read the name myself. I composed myself, payed the fine, rented the new movie and headed out laughing. The
whole ride home we recounted and repeated the story to ourselves and
were almost crying with laughter when we got back to Cole's house.
His mom asked why we were laughing, when we told her she said something to the effect
that we were idiots. We did not care, it was still hilarious.
