The mainlander and few coworkers were talking about ironing shirts. I professed my distaste for it while another said he loved it. An uninvited "trucker" of a person then chimed in, in quite an annoying Mr.know-it-all voice, that he buys no-iron dress shirts to avoid such drudgery.
While all of us figuratively rolled our eyes at this person's uninvited outburst, the mainlander held fast. Without beating an eye, holding a look of disgust, the mainlander turned to this gent of arrested development and said: "[These type of shirts] Looks like the skin on your ball."
It took us two seconds of silent contemplation to realize the reference. Needless to say, we were all on the floor laughing. It's been a good long while since the mainlander pontificated and shared his opinions. I, for one, am glad he hasn't changed!
