How is it that a 30 something has never heard of the term fair-weather?\u00c2\u00a0 Two guys in my office were talking about sports and she didn’t understand when one called the other a fair-weather fan.\u00c2\u00a0 They weren’t able to explain it to her in a way she could understand so I finally had to interject that it meant they were there when the times were good (when the weather is fair) and not when times get tough.\u00c2\u00a0 She says, “Oh, well I’ve heard that before but people always say the whole thing not fair-weather.\u00c2\u00a0 I didn’t get it.”\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
This same person during the chili cook off they had last month, needed help spelling jalapeno.\u00c2\u00a0 Not only that, there were about 4 other people that were trying to help her spell it too and none of them knew for sure.\u00c2\u00a0 One had walked to her computer to Google it.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then this morning she asked what t-z-a-i-k-i was.\u00c2\u00a0 Someone else walking by was like I think it’s a type of mushroom.\u00c2\u00a0 So I told her it was tzaiki sauce and is a yogurt sauce with cucumbers.\u00c2\u00a0 She’s like I’ve never heard of it.\u00c2\u00a0 I told her it’s what they put on gyros.\u00c2\u00a0 She’s like I’ve never had those either.\u00c2\u00a0 The other lady was like yeah, it’s for Heroes and it’s yogurt and cucumbers.\u00c2\u00a0 Thanks for summing up what I said using poor pronunciation.\u00c2\u00a0 Geniuses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
