I'm writing this mere seconds after hearing this just because it made me laugh/smile.

A fellow worker bee here at VW is a fairly big gearhead. He restored a '69 Firebird to pretty much perfection and was selling it to pick up my dream car, a '67 Bronco. He put it on the market for 45 grand a few weeks ago and came in this morning with a slight drag in his step.

He passed by another worker bee in the kitchen and with a sigh he said "Well, sold the car..."

What did the other guy say? With a simple little smile, he replied, "You ok?"

How fucking cool is that? Not "congratulations" or "sweet", but an "you ok?". It's like he lost a child or had to put down a dog.

Yes, that's exactly how it feels. =)
