I once had a job delivering pizzas, and a regular customer of ours was a prosthetics shop called Breaky Prosthetics; which I found hilarious in and of itself.

Anyhoo, I made regular deliveries there, maybe once a week, for a couple of months before it happened, the moment I had been waiting for.

I arrived with the order, and the receptionist asked me how much it was. My reply?

"An arm and a leg!"

They were not amused, but that is still among my proudest irl joke moments

I went to a private high school, which was way across town. For the first couple of years, I mostly relied on public transportation to get to and from school. One day, my train ran late and I missed the bus at my connection. This was shaping up to be a huge issue, since the next bus would not arrive for half an hour, causing me to be late for a final I had that day, automatic fail if I didn't make it for the bell. After a few minutes, an empty cab pulls up, and the driver asks me where I'm going, says hop in, he needs a passenger for the carpool lane. He and I were both in a rush, and even the carpool lane wasn't moving much, so homie just whips it in to the shoulder. He got me there just in time for my final. Pretty wild ride!
