An old army trick

Maybe I need more sleep or maybe I need more carbs, but I've decided that a fun thing to do before performing any exceedingly simple task is to slyly say, "Here's a trick I learned in the army." Try saying it the next time you're in your workplace kitchen, then simply rinse out your coffee cup and leave. Either you raise people's expectations only to leave them unfulfilled, or you leave your audience wondering what it missed in your obviously deceptively simple action.
