In my workplace we used to have certain self-development workshops called âChrysallisâ. As s/w development is not such an amusing job, this event gave us a chance to unclog our brain. Funny things used to happen there. The aim was to improve communication, etiquette, body language, phone-etiquette etc. But most of us will be dragged from the midst of the coding (it was compulsory!). So even while attending the session most of us will be âmind-compilingâ our code, we have to finish next day. One day john and myself were talking about the new shirt he has bought last day (ofcourse w/o our tutorâs permission). I was asking its brand name, cos I knew john loved branded shirts. As we were in class he whispered to me âits Louis Philleppeâ. And then the next thing I heard simi who was sitting next to john screaming loud!!!! âwhat blue-film?â. There was pin-drop silence for 2secs. Me, john and everybody else couldnât understand what was happening. And simi was there looking shocked. Next moment all blurted out into hilarious laugh. It turned out that as usual simi was too involved in her âmind-compilingâ, that she heard âlouis-phillippeâ rhymed like âblue-filmâ. U shud have see her face after that !!!(and johnâs too)â¦while I had one of the best jokes witnessed!!!
