Overheard in Camp Borepatch

Me: How's the coffee doing?

Mrs. Borepatch: It's brewing.

Me: What????!

Mrs. Borepatch: I said it's brewing.  What did you think I said?

Me: I thought you said it was ruined.

Mrs. Borepatch: You need to get your hearing checked.

Me: They'd just tell me I can't hear anything.

Mrs. Borepatch: You'd never listen to them, anyway.

Heh.

At least your wife knows what 'brewing' means. If I said that,my wife would look at me like a dog hearing a strange noise. People who hear us speaking her version of pidgen english would be lost .

My wife believed for years that my inability to hear her when she spoke was because I worked around computers with noisy fans.
