	Grammar Geek  +  288971 Fri, 03 Nov 06 03:17 PM Apparently, his coworkers call him Bing. (I never watched Friends, so I don't know.) When he says "I ask myself the same question" he's replying that he doesn't know why a lady as pretty as Monica would want to be with him either. Law firm - A company that provides legal services. Drink our body weight - if you weight 60 kilos, then 60 kilos of liquor would be a LOT. It's obviously an exaggeration - he's saying "let's go get drunk" A work laugh - apparently, he has a different personality at work, so his "usual" laugh would be out of place at this office party, where he work friends know him. And Monica should come up with a "work laugh" as well. Probably, it's a more polite, low-key laugh than a good, hearty laugh like you would use if your friends made you laugh. Check me out - look at/listen to me. I have no idea what the feathers thing is about. Grammar Geek Joined on Tue, Jan 10 2006 Veteran Member 19,655 Barbara, who answers in American English.

	Vorpar  +  289043 Fri, 03 Nov 06 09:52 PM "I Ask myself that question." -I've had the same thought as you. Bing is the character's last name. Chandler Bing. He has a "work laugh" because he doesn't think his boss is funny. So he makes a fake laugh when the boss tells a joke. "Says $30 father." This is the ending to a joke the boss is telling. Father is what a priest is called, so it's probably a classic "Priest walks into a bar" type of joke. Vorpar Joined on Tue, Sep 20 2005 Santa Barbara, CA Regular Member 940 Jokes
