Waitress taking my order: Such arrogance! Not only do you presume to boast under the guise of being humble, but your order employs the most decadent of linguistic excesses - the tautology!

My date, who until recently thought "tautology" referred to the study of tensile strengths and upon learning her mistake compensated by reading through its Wikipedia article: That would be more correctly identified as a "pleonasm".

The editor I hired to curate my posts who styles himself as a sort of scheming court advisor: My liege, this one is getting away from us. The punchline loses much of its impact when the rest of the joke is derailed by this increasingly self-indulgent meta humour. Were it up to me, your Grace, which of course it is not, I would cut the others and leave myself as the only supporting character. You need noone else, Your Majesty...

Natakarica, ki si zapisuje moje naročilo: Predrznost pa taka! Ne drznete si zgolj samohvale pod krinko ponižnosti, v svojem naročilu se poslužite še najbolj dekadentnega jezikovnih presežkov – istorečja!

Moje dekle, ki je do nedavna mislilo, da je "istorečje" sinonim za sotočje, in je ob spoznanju svoje napake nadoknadilo z branjem članka na Wikipediji: temu bi se pravilneje reklo "besedno preobilje".

Urednik, ki sem ga najel, da mi ureja objave, in ki se ima za nekakšnega spletkarskega dvornega svétnika: Vaša gnada, šala jim uhaja izpod nadzora. Jedru peša učinkovitost, ko preostanek šale zaide v vse bolj njim prikrojen meta humor. Če bi bilo na meni, vaša milost, pa seveda ni, bi se znebil ostalih in pustil sebe kot edinega podpornega junaka. Vaše blagorodje ne potrebujejo nikogar drugega ...
