I have that exact conversation with a coworker, except he was trying to talk to me about internet antigravity videos.

The VP of my department has "Superhero" by Jane's Addiction as his ring tone.

Otherwise known as this:


That ringtone wasn't cool in 2005, let alone now. This guy is pushing 50. I get douche chills every time I hear his phone go off.

This happened years ago but I was reminded of it when I saw some mexicans munching on jalapenos in the break room...

Many years ago we hired a young black man to drive the delivery truck. One day we were all eating Papa John's and black dude bet one of the mexicans 100 bucks he couldn't eat one of the peppers that came with it without drinking any water for an hour. Black dude lost, and was absolutely dumbfounded at the feat.

yesterday morning conversation with dumb-as-a-stump welder who is always late and smokes pot in the bathroom:

Welder: Sorry I was late, I forgot to reset my clock over the weekend

Me: Well then you should've been an hour early

Welder: No... wait... are you sure?

Me: Positive.


I could post in this thread every day.

I love the implication that I've somehow slacked off by not also learning graphic design as I ammased the skills to do video.

me: stop... no, go ahead. i'll wait.

Today's gem from the same Chaz Bono-looking motherfucker as above: the word "wherein" is a question. As soon as it's used, it's interrogatory. Only use "herein" and "therein" because those aren't questions.
SPOILERSPOILER_SHOW
There was also a technical gem about he doesn't argue certain facts about a case because they're somehow immaterial until the judge makes an affirmative finding on them--because somehow, facts aren't facts until they're acknowledged on the record. I sorta got philosophical in response to that point when I really should have just called him stupid and ended the conversation.

that was her excuse. she was pretty excited about the entire experience, so she wasn't thinking too clearly. before the cutting holes in the bag thing though i did instruct her to pull out his catheter sharply and forcefully, "as if you were starting a lawn mower" because rigor causes the urethra to seize up on the tubing. she caught on to that one though when the tech started giggling.
