A twist on the English language.

I was asked, "How would you NOT like your coffee?"

I responded with, "Half a cup."

The questioner replied with what I thought was a bit over the top, "I would never even think of making it so very badly."





I had to run it over in my mind for quite a while until I realised what he had heard.

Say, "Half a cup" over and over. It will come to you.

The questioner was wondering about the reason his conversational partner did not like the coffee.

Yes, sorry folks. I should've mentioned that NICE people would probably never get what I was suggesting.

Apologies. Please forgive me. oops
