Which Reminds Me

Yes, I suppose that all of this really grates on Bobby's nerves, him having to lose this round of Yahtzee to a girl. Ick! But anyway, it's not about him so he will just have to understand. It's about all people everywhere who may inadvertently and innocently make some small language mistake and then find themselves maliciously slandered and lost in translation. Wrong! That is not a proper way to deal with these translation matters. And who would want to tackle such a snarly matter? Why am I stuck with this thankless job? I could just quit and go somewhere but then this problem would never get solved.

Yes, we all took swimming lessons together in childhood, but my aquatic talents were not such as to merit such an overwrought calling from the Olympic aspirants of swimming school. Everyone should learn how to swim in case someday you are thrown overboard or something, the better not to drown, but we should not be throwing ourselves into such dangerous positions just to tempt fate, because it might not work out the way you want. There are no guarantees about that.
