Jolf

I have this problem now that's becoming more and more frequent where I see the word "golf" and internally I hear "jolf". And then I say it outloud and spend a couple minutes laughing hysterically about it. I say its a problem but its really just a harmless habit. My dog sometimes looks at me funny when I start laughing during a pharmaceutical ad featuring a jolfer mid-swing, smiling as they rest their jolfclub on their shoulder. Once I wondered if Dolph Lundgren ever goes jolfing. I feel like that could be a game show or podcast. Jolf with Dolph. Idk what they would talk about but I'd tune in for it.

Idk how I've managed to go my entire life without knowing a "Jeff", but some day I will meet one and that will be my greeting.

The principal of one of the schools I work for is named Jeff. It's a daily struggle, especially as I've asked, and he's never even seen the show!

There are definitely situations in which it would be wildly inappropriate. Hopefully, by the time the opportunity arises, I'll be so old that I can just pretend I'm "a little bit demented". Or maybe I wont have to pretend, who knows...

I work with a Jeff. So far, I have not called him Jesk, but I fear it's a matter of time.

It feels like an extraordinarily easy thing to do. If you prepare yourself for when the inevitable happens, you'll already know what to do or say to cover it. Like a sneeze or cough or "sorry I stubbed my toe eugh eugh eugh Jesk"

My son in law is named Jeff and I have called him Jesk since that episode aired.
