James' memory fail = Team One Win

  • James: You know that burger joint, Twelve Brothers? It’s so good, it’s kind of like In-N-Out in L.A.
  • The rest of the group: Mmhmm …
  • James: Yeah, I think they have one in New York, too. They make this burger that's like ...
  • Natt: Wait, do you mean Five Guys? I didn't want to say anything at first because I thought maybe there's another place like that.
  • The rest of the group: OOOOH.
  • James: Huh? OH yeah. It's Five Guys. I forgot. Hahaha.

Conversations with my Thai mother

  • Mom: (translated from Thai) This photo makes me feel wet.
  • Me: WHAT?
  • Mom: Look at this ad ::points to a Calvin Klein photo of two models oiled up, frolicking on the sand:: it totally captures the essence of heat, sweat, the beach ... and the clothes look nice. Looking at this picture makes me feel like I'm there, too, you know, all wet like I'd just gotten out of the water at the beach.
  • Me: Um. Yeah. Okay, mom. Your point?
  • Mom: It's good photography.

First (Chinese) Pizza

  • Me: It's hot cheesy bread. Definitely needs more sauce in this.
  • Tom: Or any.
  • Nikesh: I specifically said tomato, apparently there are different kinds of pizza sauces. He started telling me the options: tomato, thousand island and I said "Stop, stop stop, TOMATO, please, use tomato sauce."
