Here are some tips to effective communication. (Warning: all the tips should be tried at ones own risk)
Zakir had just slammed the phone on his wife..
Rajesh: What happened Zakir, I heard you had another accident?
Zakir: Yes., but it ws not my fault, the car from behind hit me.
Rajesh: You must be driving really slow..
Zakir: No., Ask Praveen regarding my driving.
Praveen: Yes.., Zakir drives really fast.
Rajesh: Zakir, Does your wife drive??
Zakir: No…
Praveen (interrupting): Oh yes, She drives.. She drives Zakir mad..(Sometimes)
PS: Seema (Zakir’s wife) is a really good person., I’ve met her.
