The Handsfree Woman
I was on the train going home last evening, when I noticed a woman who seemed to be talking to herself enter the train. She sat down in front of me, and continued talking, at which point I noticed the hands-free kit that she was using. What’s unusual about this, you might ask…, well, it’s the way that this woman spoke. I know that Italians have a reputation for using a lot of body language when speaking to someone - well, this woman outdid any Italian I’ve seen. She was a very expressive woman, and while she’s speaking on the hands-free kit, she’s waving and moving her hands about, trying to make her conversation clearer to the other party!
Reminds me of this joke:
How do you get an Italian to shut up?
You tie down their arms!
