Context, chatting with a guy in charge of a crew that is laying a fiber-optic cable from Nashville to Dallas. He is grousing a bit because he has very little say over the composition of his crew and tells a story of some guy getting on the radio on the job to say, "I can't find the hole!"
Your humble narrator immediately in a knee jerk fashion, "That's what she said!"
The confused look on his face means:
1. Not everyone watched The Office or knows who Michael Scott is.
2. From #1 above, that means no one knows that that character had a very corny sense of humor.
3. So when one makes a Michael Scott reference, it looks like the one making the joke is the one that's corny.
In any event, animal update. No chickens for the last two days. Kitty was missing earlier and was briefly afraid the snake got her. However, she was here when I got home. She's helping me watch tv now. I hope it's a good SNL or she's going to want to be put outside and that requires getting up.
