I just don't get itPoor Semiret, he's foreign and has no idea if he "should laugh about the whole 'only playing music when they are out of ice cream' thing or not." There's also a Far Side cartoon that has had him stumped for almost 20 years.
What don't you understand? What have you politely gone along with whilst internally going WTF?

When in conversationspeople repeat almost verbatim a point they made a couple of minutes earlier, even though it bears no relation to where the conversation has moved onto. It indicates that they weren't listening to what you just said and are repeating the point just because they don't think it got the recognition it deserved, or you didn't understand it or something. It's rude and boring.
