Overheard


at the corner by Barnes & Nobles
A: Man, I gotta go shopping. I need like three more button up shirts, and some khaki type deals.
B: The new place has a dress code like that?
A: No, but there is a super clear division dress-wise between the engineers and interns, and the management. You know, "Dress for the job you want, not the job you have" and all of that.
B: Yeah, that's why I always wear this space suit!
A: ... Wah wah.
B: Yeah, I know. See, I was originally going to say "robes"
A: Like a monk?
B: Well, see, I was thinking Supreme Court Judge, but yeah, I knew it was confusing. Then I was thinking "super powered iron suit"
A: Being Iron Man isn't a job
B: Yeah, exactly! And then I saw you were about to go for it
A: Yeah, I was gonna say "fireman's uniform"
B: Sure. So yeah, I panicked, and "space suit" was the best I could come up with.
A: Yeah, that's fine.
B: Yeah, I thought it turned out OK.
