Her, watching a TV show I can’t stand, and laughing…:
“Ah… it’s too much!”
“Woo hoo!”
“Why ‘woo hoo’?”
“You said it was too much.”
“I think you’ve misunderstood.”

I was in an online session for a large outsourcing business where they were supposed to teach us about workshop design. The guy hosting the session got us all to log on to an anonymous survey site and his first question was “What’s your favourite warm-up activity?” (our host loves warm-up activities).

Among the usual “interesting fact” or “drawing things” entries, one person submitted the answer “genocide”. I’m not sure if they were trolling or making a comment on not agreeing with their government/ military client.
