The C.S.O. has been having some difficulties with our front screen door. Here’s a snippet of our just-concluded exchange about them:
CSO: I think the problem is with the turny thing.
FWP: “Turny thing?” In my country we call that a knob.CSO: Well, you knew what I meant!
FWP: And a good thing for you. No one else on Earth would have.CSO: Everyone I work with understands the way I talk!
FWP: No wonder you love your work so much.CSO: I’m gonna start collecting your foibles.
FWP: Well, at least my foibles aren’t voible.
At which point we were both laughing too hard to continue.
That final statement disproves itself with its very utterance.
