Overshare

Yesterday I was telling the girls at work that we had to go shopping for new pants for Eric, and they looked really confused. Then Kate, my co-worker from London, exclaimed, “Oh, you mean trousers!” I’ve just realised that their confusion was due to the fact that “pants” means “underwear” here. I’m blushing – what an obvious case of oversharing.

Also, if you talk to anyone about how the football players don't seem to wear much equipment,like pads, DO NOT use the word protection--down there that means condoms! I found out that little piece of information at a church party!
