i hate the red M&M, hes such a prickFollow

i really do hate that *******, the way he slaps around the yellow M&M...

*******

This little moment of my life wasn't worth its own thread and this one seems as good to dump in as any other...

So I'm trying to get an appointment in with some people and finally one of them calls me back. We chat a bit and I remark on how difficult it was to get a response and that I was a little suprised. He says he's suprised as well and gives a possible reason. I respond by saying "Well, I don't mean to cast aspersions on anyone..."

But I don't say "aspersions", I say "aspirations".

There's a moment of silence (and probably confusion on his end) and I'm blissfully unaware. We finish the conversation and hang up. About two seconds later, I realize what happened. Now, on the forum, I'd hit edit and fix my error and carry on. My mind in "forum mode", I'm seized by the desire to call the guy back and explain that I'm not an idiot. Luckily, the rest of my brain explains to me that then he'd just think I'm insane.

So... so it goes. But I'm determined to throw the phrase "cast aspersions" into the conversation next week when we meet

Next week you should tell him you have great aspersions for greatness.

The green ones make me horny
