Will it ever end???

Today, posted outside of Terri's office, were two sheets of paper. One had the definition of "parched" while the other had the definition of "perished."

Now granted, when I'm right about something, I like to make it known. But to continually rub it in someone else's face - while at work? I think that's a little over the top.

Not that I haven't thought about it...I mean, certainly if it were work related ("I told you if we didn't remove that kid he'd end up with a broken leg") it would be justified.

But the difference between perished and parched??? In the grand scheme of things - who the hell cares??????

Does it matter?

The following conversation just occurred in the hallway outside of my office door:

Jason: You said "perished."
Terri: I can say "perished."
Jason: No - it's "parched."
Terri: I'm "perishing for a drink."
Lamma: "perished" means dead.
Terri: yeah, I'm "perishing" for a drink means I'm dying for a drink.
Jason: But you said "I'm perished."
Terri: So?
Jason: "Famished" means hungry and "parched" means thirsty and "perished" means died. You cannot say "I'm perished."
Terri: Well, lots of people say that - I've heard other people say it.

Then apparently Jason walked off in frustration because then I hear:
Terri: I'm still going to say "perished" whether he likes it or not. I can say perished if I want.

WHATEVER.
