The Office

Coworker: "So Mike, have you made a decision on the summer intern yet?"

Me: "Yes, I think we're going with [Candidate #2]."

Coworker: "Was she the one with the inappropriate cleavage?"

Me: "Oh, I didn't notice that. I just thought she was the most skilled."

inappropriate cleavage - that doesn't make sense. tell you coworker to get his balls out of his purse

Rooroo - Please note that I was as objective as possible in my evaluation.

Marc - Agreed. I found it highly appropriate. Coworker is female, so while she does have a purse, the only balls in there belong to her husband.

An addendum to this: said coworker actually thought I was serious. Which is ridiculous for a number of reasons.
