Today, my Scottish colleague said something to me and I didn't understand a word of it. He repeated it again, so I cocked my head and squinted my eyes trying to comprehend. Then he said it again and again and again...the whole sentence, then just the one word, then louder...you get the idea. Then I'm sure he swore at me as I fell into fits of uncontrollable laughter at the absurdity of the whole thing.
