The wifey catching some zzz's with the family dog. |
Not too long ago my wife was one of only 10 (out of about 20,000) who has been personally contacted by the owner of (one of ) her web business' site to discuss her business strategy. And that's one of a myriad of achievements she had had just this year. That will tell ya how smart she is. At the same time though, coming from a different culture and not being a native English speaker, she tends to make linguistic mistakes from time to time (fair enough- as I do the same thing in Japanese)... And the best of them, I just gotta share from time to time. Here is the most recent 10.
10. Looking at my hands
C: Do you think it's weird that I have a slight bend in a few of my fingers like that?
M: Is that from fisting people in Taekwondo for so many years?
C: Hmmm... Punching maybe... Fisting, no, lol.
9. At breakfast
M: Chuck what are you eating for breakfast?
C: Oatmeal.
M: What?
C: Oatmeal.
M: Why in the hell are you talking about cars?!
C: No dude, OATMEAL, not automobile.
8. While changing clothes at home, I bend over to put on my pants and totally rip a loud one.
M: Bless you.
C: Ummm... I don't think that's how it's used, but thanks anyway, lol.
7. While eating my Cadbury Cream Eggs at Easter
M: So what do you do at Easter in America?
C: Ummm… Basically, you wake up and eat a bunch of junk food.
M: How is that different from any other day in America?
6. At the dinner table.
M: I heard that in America, people think gargling beer can make women hotter. Is that true?
C: No dude, you're thinking of beer goggles, not beer gargles.
5. While watching Passenger's "Let her go".
M: He looks like Chief from Battlestar Galactica.
(Funny thing is, she's right- he totally does).
4. While cleaning the house
M: We need to change the light bubble in the ceiling.
3. While out in Tokyo
M: My lips are really dry...Do you have any lip bums?
2. While back in Michigan
M: Is the dog okay? Do we need to take him to the Vietnam-Alien?
C: Veteranarian
M: Whatever.
1. While I was on crutches
M: Wow, this is my first time having lunch with a cripple.
C: How so very sensitive of you, my dear.
M: Don't be so insulted. If it wasn't cool there, wouldn't be a gang in LA named after them.
C:??
M: You know… the guys who wear blue and fight with Bloods.
