ABSTRACT
A group of businessmen are having a drink after work. One launches into a series of Polish jokes. Another man, who happens to be of Polish ancestry, becomes more and more irritated. As it happens, he and the first man must interact fairly regularly. He is thus quite aware of the fact that it is to their mutual benefit to get along. But as the anger continues to mount, he abruptly fires- off a hostile retort. The others stare, incredulous, and he mumbles apologetically that he just lost his head for a moment.
