rodolpho: Why do people look at the phone when they are mad and hang up?

Do they identify the phone with the person in question.

And then slam it down 3 times and chuck it and even keep yellin at it when the line is already dead...
Good one Rodders, I like that question it makes me laugh! I have done that too, thrown the poor phone down, jumped on it, stamped on it and flung it at the wall! Why does my dad call and when I answer, he says 'It's me, your father' when I can see it is him!

wooffy: Have you ever watched people on carphones they go through all the motions they would do as if they were talking to the person live. One other thing for the people who do talk on car phones. I once taught a deaf girl to drive and asked her (she could lip read) if she could understand what the guy behind us was saying on the phone . "pretty well all of it, yes" she said.
I thought that was so cool
You must have some corkers being a driving instructor!

Oh dear, my friend who lives near Gatwick airport, everytime she went out and she was in her car, when she first moved there, she used to duck while driving when a plane was coming in!

actually, what I always tell my students as well when they ask me that question is, I don't really have that many troubles with the students but a lot of trouble with the drivers around me.

Oh, that is a good one. My mom has interactive exchanges with the phone, doorbell, television. It is very comical. She gets downright upright with these things.

Question, very personal and unanswerable...why does my mother (who lives with me), pound on the bathroom door every morning for 2 or 3 minutes, until I turn off the shower in order to answer her, say G___, are you in there? When I say yes, she says okay, then I can finish my shower. It happens every morning and every morning I resist the urge to scream out 'Who the f___ else would it be in here ma!?!!' But I don't.

Howlers? The best statement is when a person says, ' I called you, but you did not answer' Right, I did not! Or when a person calls you and says, 'I left you five messages, why have you not called me back?' Because I am listening to your messages!

I bet you have some giggles though, nothing like talking about other people's driving.

Another one you could use is: "I'll ask her" then you say out loud "are you here" answer "yes" then answer your mother with "yup she's here"

Sommerauer71: If a person makes you a sandwich, do you look inside it to see what the contents are?


First of all, why would you need to look INSIDE the sandwich, do they not make normal sandwiches in Austria, with no extra slice of bread covering all that cheese or sausage? laugh

But suppose it was one of those covered ones... I don't think I'd un-glue it to look inside it, but if it's someone who doesn't know me, I'd definitely ask if there was no meat or chicken in it. Otherwise, I have no problems and I wouldn't double-check after asking and getting a confirmation, for sure. (I appreciate other people preparing food as I'm a bad cook myself)

Ok another odd question my friend asks on a regular basis.

vriend:"Alles goed?" translated All's well?

I say yes I'm good but the world is bad.laugh
