It's hot in here!
(singing) It's gettin' hot in here, so take off all your clothes...
What?
Haven't you ever heard this song?
No.
You don't remember that song?
No. I have no idea.
Come on, a couple years ago? That song was real hot in the summer.
?
The video was great... everyone was singing it...
Not me, obviously.
What century do you live in?
The 60s.
I bet your kids know the song.
They probably do, but my son has a poster of Hendrix in his room.
Just to give you some background, this conversation took place between two middle-aged women, 1 white & 1 black. I mention this only because the black woman is often overheard conversing with a Puerto Rican woman that also works here. For example:
Did you go to that concert?
Which concert?
That one in the park... It sounded like Marc Anthony.
I didn't go.
Oh you would have liked it. It was Latin.

Oh! You're so tan! You look just like J.Lo!
*This was not taken as a compliment.*
I feel that I should mention that this woman is the one with the famous quote:
Is it weird getting used to wearing a coat?
(on learning I was from CA)
