I pride myself on my reading comprehension, and have deciphered some atrocious spelling and grammar many times. But no matter how many times I read that, I’m still a lost by ball in high weeds on that one.

Me too.
I have worked with many folks whose first language was not english, and their translations and syntax was sometimes hard to follow. But I am stumped. 😕

Following the others, I used to ask some of my dishwasher employees:

Do you walk to school or take your lunch?

Is it Tuesday or Pittsburgh?

Don’t look at me with that tone of voice!

Got similar reactions to mine for that one….😳
Being from Pittsburgh, I totally understand. BUT I must point out, your third line is not a question...

True, but has been one of my trademarks for many years.

My staff got me an engraved cup a couple years ago. Has many of my common stuff.

A legit question from a former supervisor, "What's the difference between a small and a chocolate?"

That's not even from the boss (at the same place) who had wonderful sayings like, "We'll burn that bridge when we get to it," and "that's gonna blow up like a Christmas tree." Oh, and one of his best ones, "Ultrasonic welding and a gun to your head are the same thing."

O-P, don't be too down on yourself. It was composed by someone who wanted to be president!
