1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Today, I affed up believing emergency cock was a real expression.

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 1: It isn't. English is not my first language, and I

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: was living in the anglophone province where I was putting

4
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: my English to good use while learning expressions like it's

5
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,959
Speaker 1: a piece of cake and hold your horses, since expressions

6
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: are not always obvious true facts. One day on this topic,

7
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: my coworkers convinced me that the expression emergency cock meant

8
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: that you save something for an emergency, like stashing chocolate

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 1: in your desk for a major craving, or keeping an

10
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 1: umbrella in your car just in case it rains. Good

11
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: old emergency cock. Yeah, you gotta get that emergency cock in.

12
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: There might be a tight squeeze, but you can make

13
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: it work. I thought it made sense and didn't think

14
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 1: anything of it, so I began to use this expression

15
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: in my daily life. Oh man, dude, I need to

16
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: bring this microphone as my emergency cock. Talk about slab

17
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: on a knob, slab that knob. One occasion I remember

18
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: was going on this date during a hike and pulling

19
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: out a thin tubular flashlight and when my date asked

20
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 1: me what I and when my date asked me what

21
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: it was for I mentioned it was my emergency cock.

22
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: They didn't say anything about it and blushed, and the

23
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: date ended awkwardly. The worst occurrence was during a meeting

24
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: with a client. I had mentioned that it would be

25
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: a good idea to purchase additional support on their website

26
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: package as their emergency cock. Ah. The client got me

27
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: to repeat it for a few times. Obviously confused and

28
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: a bit uncomfortable, my coworkers were there. They got real

29
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: quiet and took me aside after the meeting to let

30
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: me know that they had lied about the expression that

31
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: I had been using for a full year and still

32
00:01:55,200 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: am beyond embarrassed. Oh, I'm so sorry. Yeah, dude, you

33
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: gotta get that dictionary and use it as your emergency cock. Yeah.

34
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: Take in case you need an emergency dick dictionary. Oh,
