Fun Friday - Things People Sometimes Want to Say

I know this was done as a window display in a furniture specialty shop, but I wonder how many people have asked to buy this stack of books?  I was tempted. 

I have a couple of funny signs in my office.  

One says "Trust me I am a Lawyer." Yea, I know, I know, I have heard and met most the lawyer jokes.  

Another one says "I Can Explain It To You, But I Can't Understand It For You." On the limits of understanding, I always reach back the concept of a "reverse triangular merger."  I had to describe how those work in an exam once, but I couldn't tell you today.  When I ask a room (Zoom) full of lawyers if they can explain that concept, they understand, that not everyone understands the things that they think are simple and common knowledge.  Sometimes we have to remind people that not everyone sees the world as they do. 

Sometimes humor is a great way of triggering understanding. 

How do you think a reverse triangular merger works?
