This is why....

this guy and I get along like a house on fire....

I sent this link to him to an NZ Herald article on Ireland's victory over Australia at the 2011 Rugby World Cup "Rugby World Cup: Kidney has big stake in Ireland stunner"

z: Not just found in corduroy pillows…..
m: I’d have worked in the use of “pie” in that headline…
z: “Steak and Kidney 3.142” just doesn’t square up.....
m: It should. Don’t you know pie are square?
z: Not just that, but according to Pirate folklore if you go once around it adds up, to pie Arrrr.
m: Now you’re just leeding me round in circles, peg leg notwithstanding.

FYI 19 Sep (the date of this conversation) was International Talk like a Pirate Day. =)

Also, this is why workmate and I do not really talk:
Because of the Subway one-for-one offer, the following conversation ensued with workmate(wm)

wm: ok so you buying subway?
me: yes, what do you want?
wm: chicken i guess.
me: on what bread?
wm: the long one.
me: eh? what type is that? Like Italian, Honey Oat, etc. Check out the Subway website.
wm: ok. I'll have the vinaigrette.
me: *facepalm*
