me: we become a new company this week.
mo: you will probably need to get out of this business at some point.
me: i’m guessing i will get out of it the easy way.
mo: which way is that? (muffled response)?
me: DID YOU SAY “WHICH WAY IS THAT? STROKE?”
mo: of course not.
me: then what did you say?
mo: I said “croak.”
me: oh.
