Co-worker1 walks up to Co-worker2 and starts talking to him as if they had been conversing for the last 15 minutes. You know, he sort of hits the ground running in mid conversation.
Co-worker2, diligently wading through a bog of server support, turns to him and in a very even and almost ethereal tone means to say, “You need to slow down. I’m having trouble shifting gears and understanding what you’re talking about.”
What he actually says is,
“Every time you open your mouth, my. Fuckin’. Head. Wants. To. Explode.”
After the peals of geek laughter died down, all I could say was, “I’m putting that on this little scrap of paper so that you can’t claim that I misquote you later on.”
