All day today I keep thinking of a conversation I heard this morning. It wasn't really that funny but I keep cracking up every time I think of it.
A college student co-op complained to a co-worker that the holidays are too short, especially this upcoming major holiday. It really should be longer. He said "And besides, my father will be driving me crazy". To which the co-worker responds "Why? Don't you drive?".
Actually the co-worker was serious. I don't know if he misheard him or didn't understand American colloquialism (he's originally from a different country). The co-op said it was just a figure of speech. Oh, the father will want to watch football all day & the co-op wants some quiet time, that's what will drive him crazy.
