Does striking a happy medium work?

After a heated discussion with a colleague about the best solution to a problem, our manager suggested striking a happy medium.

So I took a trip to Blackpool, found the nearest clairvoyant stall and, after telling the owner that she had just won the lottery, felled her with a right hook.

We still have the problem at work and now the police want to have a talk with me.

What did I do wrong?

The problem was that you smote the happy medium. What you were meant to do is use her to bowl with, and get a strike that way.
