Conversations at work #25971

I just walked into this conversation:

Coworker #1: How long will it be down?

Coworker #2: A couple of days.

(Pause)

Coworker #2: The softerners. Not the hospital.

Me: Minor distinction.

I'm telling you guys this because it made me think of the Hungarian phrase book sketch by Monty Python. I can't remember exactly how it goes but there's something like, "Many of them Hungarians. The foreign nationals, not the streets."

And NOW all I can think of is, "Do you want to go back to my place, bouncy bouncy?" This is not good, not considering the phone call I'm currently waiting on. He's got *checks watch* fifty-four minutes.

Off to cleanse my brain.

Edit: God love YouTube:

Giggling sounds like a good plan!

Giggling is always a good plan, even when it makes people think you've been drinking on the job. LOL

I don't know what a softerner is so I didn't laugh, but I did enjoy the video, so thank you! ;-)

Sorry, water softener. Should have clarified. Yay! It's one of my favorite bits. LOL

Ah, that does make more sense! Yes, it's as ludicrous as so many of their best! :D

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

Yay! Hahaha — this and the one teaching you how to defend yourself against someone attacking you with fruit. I'll randomly say, "And then you EAT the banana!" before I eat a banana (which is literally every day).

I completely forgot about that skit. My nipples explode with delight!

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

I forget about it, too, and then randomly remember and have to search it out.

However, I need to remember not to watch this stuff at work because answering the phone while cackling gets you accused of drinking on the job. LOL
