Badgers too. I always thought them tiny little things. Then I started working nights and they are huge galumping things with claws that skitter across tarmac.
Women, never ask what we are thinking about at that moment. Ask us what we were thinking, and don't put a timeline. After you have placed your request, press, enter and listen for the sound of gears needing oil, and know what we say is the best we can come up with and accept it.
And when we say 'Nothing,' it's possible we might have accidentally achieved a state of dharma ... and for the briefest of moments, there isn't a problem that our boss is expecting us to solve, there isn't a chore that needs to be taken care of in the next sixty seconds, our conscious mind is allowed to be still like a pond.
My answer is often 'Nothing' and they have a hard time believing that. I truly am quite capable of staring into the void and not thinking a thing. No words, no noises, no pictures floating through my head, just emptiness.
A lot of the time, its because we can't say what we were thinking about. There is no time or place where saying "I wonder what happened to the guy from 1 jar 1 man" is going to be considered acceptable.
The nothing box. It's a state of mind for us where we're at the ending hours of the day and we're at complete peace. We've had our good day out, we're now completely relaxed and unburdened. No worries from home, no stress, nothing plaguing us. Just contentment; a moment of zen where we can just -be-, without having to be -someone-.

I have a feeling this was based on actual events. 😂

That seems fairly mild and harmless. At least he wasn't thinking about the battle formation of a Roman legion.

Its true, though. Pigs are much bigger than you'd expect.

Come to think of it, have you seen sheep? They're much fluffier than you'd expect.

Haha you don't get it because that was not it

I thought this was of the premise that "haha boys are shallow"

Both can be true at the same time. And both are bad.

And here I thought the joke was going to be that he said something actually outrageous.

No, this is much funnier because it is realistic in the context, relatable and understated. If you want ham, Christmas is right around the corner.

Just kinda predictable to me. Hence it's a bit linear and boring. But whatever floats you boat I guess.
TheresAlwaysSomething
Your whole original post was about you expecting something else; the opposite of you predicting it.

Went like this: "He must be thinking about something mundane and unromantic. Wait that's way to predictable, wonder what it'll be... Oh, ok."
