Flipping Out

I realise as I'm making this post, this is the third one featuring an animal, it's not intentional I promise, but also it's the third entry regarding a guy I work with (remember the white black coffee man?).

So what's he done this time? Well we're talking about pets this morning, I was commenting on how I hate those scrotey little Scottie dogs. He says 'I thought you like dogs', I replied saying I do, I like most of them, just not Scotties (and a few others), besides I sponsor a lovely dog. [sighing] so the conversation then goes like this:

Him: I've got a sponsored pet

Me: Really, what?

Him: I sponsor a Dolphin... I gave it to my Nephew as a gift.

Me: A gift to your Nephew? Well it's not really your pet then is it?

Him: But I pay for it.

Me: But if you gave it to your Nephew as a gift, surely it's theirs, you don't give someone a gift and then say 'it's mine', it's theirs.

Him: No, but...

Me: Technically you are taking back a gift you gave to an innocent child. Get out of my sight you grotty man.

Okay, okay, I may have paraphrased the last bit a little for comedic effect, but that is pretty much how it went!
