kinda not spoken but more of an action… people who copy Ross from friends and put speech marks physically with their fingers at points in their sentance… swines.

I met someone who took this a stage further yesterday, I was on a buying excursion for the shop and dealt with a sales person who “spoke” punctuation, so the conversation went something like this…..

Me: have you got any tea-light holders?

Him: yeah we got them in quartz comma obsidian comma selenite comma….(and so the range went on – I won’t bore you with the rest)

Me: is that just clear quartz?

Him: no we got clear quartz slash rose quartz slash smokey quartz slash milky quartz slash….. (you get the picture!)

Comma? And isn’t slash something you go to the loo for?

Then later:

Me: this amethyst is very dark, is it real or simulated?

Him: it’s quote heat enhanced unquote

I think I’d have preferred the quote marks with fingers a la Ross from Friends than the spoken version :?

I wondered if it was a set-up, was looking around for the hidden cameras :lol:

“we need a pre-meeting meeting to make sure we’ve got our ducks lined up in a row and are singing from the same song sheet. We need to make sure we’re leveraging all our synergies to fit the new paradigm and that we have identified all the stakeholders, internal and external.”

Sorry, I think i spent too long in management in a very large american company (“that will do nicely sir”) …… :oops:

Someone I once worked with decided to see if anyone was listening so replaced the “singing from the same song sheet” to “we need to make sure we’re all playing wih the same shape balls” – oh some of us were listening still (we were playing corporate bingo) and the sniggers were heard around the room, with those that weren’t listening wondering what they’d missed. :lol:
