Why you shouldn’t learn Korean from me
13/07/2006
Because.
I am.
Too funny.
There are few things that I think back upon which still make me chuckle, but these are definite winners:
The one with 250mb of mail
My poor sales producer at that time bore the brunt of that, I promised to increase her mail storage from 6mb to 250mb (to all her various accounts, no questions asked) if she would pose in photos for my product pages. All that knowing that everyone’s mail storage was going to increase in a week anyway.
The one with the credits at the end of Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers
Which was only meant for the marketing producer at the time, but some eavesdroppers overheard my conversation and decided to stay, even convincing their friends and people at the cinema with their misplaced confidence. And we know how long the credits for those movies took…
The one with “dude” in Korean
I don’t know what “dude” in Korean is, but I told Pinkie in the office Sharks that it’s “yoh boh”, a salutation reserved for your spouse. I then proceeded to yell it out to Pinkie whenever I saw her to prove my point. Finally she relented and yoh boh-ed an unwitting Korean co-worker on IM.
I’m amazed at myself. I amuse myself even more. Damn, I’m good.
For Pinky Sharks: {:D >:D< :-*}
