Some people just need to be beat with a trout. People who think the word "mine" has two syllables, for example. People like a certain co-worker of mine, who also like to pronounce kindergarten as "kindy-garden". He treats the English language like it's Robin Givens and he's Mike Tyson. Conversations with Joe quickly turn into an Abbott and Costello routine.
"Is this yours or mi-yan?"
It's mine.
"Oh, okay. Here you go."
No, it's not mine. It's yours.
"But you just said it wasn't mi-yan."
It's MINE, you freaking clod!
"Then take it."
No, it's yours.
"So it is mi-yan?"
I'LL KILL YOU!!
