G is for geek

Okay, so I have a rather small dressing table. The different objects on it are always fighting for space. With the addition of Xena's box of 3842984730247039 hairclips and rubber bands (which I admit were added by me, but still), it's gotten worse. However, I always keep one of the corner spaces reserved for my ipad and phone, which I place there just before I go to bed. I see red when that space is occupied, especially if I'm not the one who put the stuff there. So the other day, when I saw two of Xena's water bottles and two large drinking glasses on 'my spot', I lost it. I picked up all four items and marched over to Viv. Then I said in my most polite voice, "Viv, my dressing table is huge and has a lot of empty space. I think two 500-ml drinking glasses and two water bottles are probably not enough to occupy all that free space. Why don't you get four more of each and put them there?"

He stared at me for a few seconds with a completely blank look. Then he spoke slowly, "You know, sometimes it takes me a while to figure out if you're being serious or sarcastic. I have to process your words and insert the Boolean NOT operator in the correct places before I can tell what you're really saying."

Sayesha, N is for No.

Arun said...

But I oscillate, between "obviously X is for Xena, but obviously, Sayesha will not do the obvious thing, so X is for something else".
