Wah waaah wah wah

wah-waaah-wah-wah-zero-dean

Walk up to a friend at the gym.

He's working out on a machine. He has his headphones in.

"You like it when I talk to you and you can't hear me, don't you?"

He takes his headphones out, "What?"

I laugh. I said, "You like it when I talk to you and you can't hear me, don't you?"

He laughs, "Dude, all I heard was, 'You look buff, today'."

And that's how you take a joke like a boss.

I got schooled. Hilarious.

RE: Wah waaah wah wah (video )

*Commentary: He actually didn't hear me at all. His response was a quick-witted joke. As-in, that's all he ever hears anytime he can't hear what someone at the gym is saying to him. I.e. I can't hear them, they must be saying I look buff today.

For reference: the "wah-wah" teacher voice from the Peanuts cartoons, where the adults' words sound like a muted trombone. That is what my gym buddy heard. His comeback was better than mine.
