Expanding my colleagues' linguistic horizons

[westernind]

Today I used the following phrases in work meetings:
"steel cage deathmatch"
"clusterfuck"

Still at work. I suspect I'll be here for a while.

Much sympathy. Hope you're ordering in food at work's expense?

On the train :)

I haven't used "Clusterfuck" today, but suspect I may do by the end of next week.

Been in since 0830 and aiming to be out by 1600.

Huzzah for you. In a fit of exasperation I managed to paraphrase a bit of the Tempest to a US colleague.

(The colleague in question has a dense South Carolina accent and says stuff like 'let's not get our briches in a bunch' and generally behaves like an extra from The Dukes of Hazzard in meetings. I love living stereotypes)
