Interesting chat with lad assistant at the phone shop. Conversation turned to music while we waited for stuff.
CC - do you play?
Lad - I probably could play if I wanted to...
CC - ok.
Lad - like if I had any kit.
CC - right.
Lad - by kit I mean turntables.
CC - sure - I guess it's tough to find places to do that.
Lad - no one would wanna hear what I play...
CC - oh? What do you like?
Lad - everything...
CC - ......... has my card gone thru yet?
We moved on to other things.
Lad - you got an iPad ?
CC - yes
Lad - what do you use it for?
CC - oh it's just a glorified coffee table book really...
Lad - (laughing) - what the hell is a coffee table book??
This lad had the biggest Afro haircut since the Chilites.
He offered to put my screensaver on for me. As he did so a hair appeared on the screen.
"Woah" he said - "where did THAT come from?"
To be fair he wasn't dumb. We were just coming from very different places/ages and the universal translator was struggling...
