Don’t Be Chicken About Jamming On
At our store, we get a lot of Spanish-speaking customers, so my coworker decides he wants to learn to say a few things in Spanish.
Coworker: “So, I already know the word for chicken is ‘pollo,’ but what’s the word for turkey?”
Me: “‘Pavo.'”
Coworker: “And what’s the word for ham?”
Me: “‘Jamon.'”
Coworker: “C’mon?”
Me: “No, ‘jamon.'”
Coworker: “Gum on?”
Me: “Noooo…”
I write it down on a piece of paper for him.
Coworker: “Hah, ‘jam on’! That’s so cool!”
Me: “Jam on?”
Coworker: *Doing air guitar* “Yeah, it’s like, JAM ON, BRO! WHOO!”
He stuck his tongue out like Gene Simmons, raised his right arm, and made a “devil horns” gesture while grabbing his crotch with the other hand.
I just facepalmed.
