“Water Cooler” Conversations

So I was telling my female co-worker about this post I read which had me giggling. This passage in particular:

Because many Korean words are based on Chinese characters, I am always catching my students out for not double checking their translations. My personal favorite was when students had to list the colors of the rainbow and about half of the students came up with:

red
orange
yellow
green
blue
sodomy
violet

And then we were pretty much laughing hysterically throughout this conversation:

Me: So apparently indigo = sodomy.

J: Does your aura turn indigo during sodomy?

Me: That’s a very good question. I don’t know.

J: I think we need to find out.

Me: Well, good luck with that. Let me know how it goes.
