And I Shake My Head...

Guy I work with: Tomato...tomato...how do you spell "tomato"? Is it with an "e"?

Me: No, it just ends in an "o" unless you want to make it plural.

GIWW: What?

Me: Plural. Tomatoes. If it's plural, it has an "e". Like potato and potatoes.

GIWW: So, no "e"?

Me: Not if it's singular.

GIWW: But...but, what did that one guy do? He spelled something like that...

Me: Are you talking about Dan Quayle? He spelled potato with an "e".

GIWW: Huhhuh.....man, that guy's an idiot!

Me: *head tilt, slow nod, slow speech* Yes. Yes he is.
