(Scene: Sydney office. ZH, PM and EH are discussing a certain client’s penchant for speaking in management-consultant techno-babble.)


ZH: We just want to make sure they’re speaking plain English. I mean, we don’t want to be drowning in wank.

Silence around the table for a beat.

ZH: Oh my God, that is totally gross!

EH: Yeah, but it would be a killer band name: Drowning in Wank!
