MisunderstoodMy other half rang a courier today to get a disc sent over to a client. The courier company asked what it was she was sending. "A computer disc", she said.
Half an hour later, 3 blokes in a van turned up. They looked a little disappointed to be handed a floppy disc: they were all prepared to shift a computer desk across London.
Have you been utterly misunderstood recently?

stusut79they said if a million monkeys bashed a million typewriters for an infinite amount of time, they would eventually produce works of shakespeare. how many millions of you would it take to start spewing some literatur that at least almost makes sense or is vaguely entertaining?
on the subject though, my mother often makes grammatical errors when it comes to afrikaans (a south african german/dutch derivitave language) instead of dolledig which means extreamly something (i can't remember what the 'something' was - maybe tired) she says dolleeg which means spotlight.
when i was small everytime someone teased me or something i would triumphantly say 'ill take that as a comment' to much laughter of all present. it took about a year before i realised what i meant was 'compliment.' and i felt so goddamn clever. my parents remind me of it all the time. oh how we laugh...
its not the size that counts. especially when you're a women and you've had two kids and king kong cant even touch sides.
