Some funny moments...

Sometimes in life there are these moments when we involuntraily smile..here are some which i can recall.
1)I was in stuck in traffic on a really bad road,was recalling my bad day from heavy work to skipped lunch.Some moron behind me was horning continiously.I acted totally out of character and made gestures of flying to the guy.Then i see an old lady in the neighbouring car clapped !and we nodded in agreement that "maniac" :)
2)I work in a global project ,get exposure to all types of cultures.We basically interact via chat.Here are some funny excepts,
* In Japan,
I got a mail with Mr. addressed to me.Same goes with me ,i am scared to guess if the mail is for a guy or a gal.So,play safe with simple "hi"
*US
Here again we get people with scrict formal to total casual.If an indian from US expect formal and distant mails and pings.
me:Hi
xyz from us: hello thr
me:hru?
xyz:fine..how abt u?
me:good..txs
[we follow hello,hru routine religiously]
me:reg abc project,i am stuck.Need some feedback
xyz:bummer,i am no closer to the solution.
*UK

Thereby i enjoy and learn something new about cultural differences via interactions through chats ...we all have small funny moments in life,which might be funny to us but not to others.
