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?

Haircut stories - ooh! ooh! I've got one!Just reminded me of a time about ten years back during student days; a German guy at halls had his brother Ulf stay over for a few weeks, who could barely speak English. He went to the barbers to trim his fine resplendent mullet, which probably wasn't the wisest thing to do given linguistic limitations.
Anyway, he didn't know the words for "stop" or "enough", so just sat there in increasing misery as the barber kept cutting it shorter and shorter, and eventually came back as bald as a coot.
Um, this isn't particularly funny really, is it? Oh well, I've typed it now.
