The best explanation I've ever given

[Fritzo]

I work for an ISP, and since we're in a large office building, we also supply the tenents with Ethernet connections to the Internet.

Boss: You remember the old man that rented the office on the 2nd floor? His wife came in and said he passed away last week. We'll need to cut the connection.

Me: OK, I can remove the port from the VLAN.

Boss: Thanks. What's weird is I checked the usage on the line and there was a lot of traffic over the last few days.

Me: Maybe he's using cloud apps?

Why yes...yes he did. It was kind of scary because he never does that (unless if involves something evil).

cloud apps = application computing done on a remote server via the Internet

the joke is cloud = heaven since the husband is dead

I'm quite impressed that you thought of that on your feet. Unless, of course, 30 seconds elapsed between your boss' response and yours.

Oddly, Chrome spellcheck corrects tenants to tenets. Weird.

I thought about it for several days, planned out the perfect response, then got him to say the exact same words again.

Actually, I'm a bit of a comedian and always have zippy comebacks 🙂 It's one of my many useless talents.
