Naughty boss

My boss just told me that he'd been at a Vietnamese restaurant standing in the pho queue.

>_< He couldn't have just said *line*??

Well, he's a sucker for a pun, you know. Very fannish that way. (Plus his boys were with him. Teenagers!)

At least he knows how to pronounce it correctly. So many people think it is 'foe', that I often have to explain when I mention it.

"Foe queue" is still funny, but once I reminded myself of the correct pronunciation it was even funnier.

Pretty soon "pho" will be like "gyros," where nobody remembers the "correct" pronunciation.
