He Was Being So Damned Chipper

Backstory: My mom and I are on a family plan, and are shuffling around the accounts a bit for boring reasons. My grandmother is not dead.

Mom: I just cancelled the -1043 phone, and the guy asked me in such a chipper voice why I was doing that (“what’s going on?”) that I told him it was because my mother died.
Do you think God will strike her dead? or strike me dead?
Me: whoa
Me: why’d you say that??
Mom: I don’t know.  He was being so damned chipper
Me: wow
Me: weird, mom
Mom: yeah, maybe

      I used that excuse to get out of a lease once.
