Awkward Phone Call

And it nearly always stems from the fact that you don't understand what's being said.

So I call up my mechanic shop and ask for the dude who was fixing my car. The guy says, "He's not here, he went to mumble-mumble." Where? "Mumble-mumble." Oh ... ok, well I'm calling about the blue Neon, just wondering if it's ready to go. "No, he went to mumble-mumble to look for a part for it."

So "mumble-mumble" is the name of an auto-parts store, I get it.

Oh. Yeah. Mumble-mumble. Great store. I get my auto-parts there.

Heh. That happens to me all the time. I must be partially deaf.
