Re: Dumb things I've heard at work: The Thread
I had this conversation with a coworker a few months back.
Coworker: "I got so wasted last night."
Me: "Cool man."
Coworker: "Yeah I smoked a few bowls and took a bunch of ibuprofen."
Me: "Was your back sore or something?"
Coworker: "Oh no man I just took it to get high."
Me: "Uhh ibuprofen doesn't get you high."
Coworker: "Yeah it does. It's a painkiller like vicodin!"
Me: "No... I'm pretty sure you can't get high off of ibuprofen."
Coworker: "Yeah you can dude! You just have to take a shitload of them."
Me: "Seriously that stuff doesn't get you high. It's not psychoactive in the least. That stuff will kill your kidneys if you keep taking that much regularly too."
Coworker: "Then how come I got so high then? It was the pills, no shit."
Me: "I think it was the weed that got you high..."
Coworker: "Whatever dude."
He was a real winner, that guy...

Ibuprofen hurts your stomach though, not your kidneys.

Yesterday Gmail was down for at least an hour.
Coworker: The internet is down! The internet is broken!
Me: Other sites work, it's just gmail, they are probably having a problem considering they are the fastest growing email, they get overloaded.
Coworker: It's Obama messing with us, Obama has shut down the internet.
Me: It's just 1 site.
Coworker: Why won't Obama just leave us alone? He's taken down the whole internet.

Coworker: I told her the first day I was here that I had to have that day off!
Me: Ah...
Coworker: Then when I reminded her last week she got furious at me!
Me: Mm...
Coworker: I just don't get all the hate and anger.
Me: You... clearly don't understand black metal.

One of the girls in the front office asked if we had to work late on "Labor Day".. as if the word "labor" implied extra overtime.

He played drums in this Wolves in The Throne Room knockoff band called Wake and my friend who recorded him said his drumming "sounds like a labrador trying to get out of a cardboard box."

Re: Dumb things I've heard at work: The Thread
If I play any music other than top 40 shit, everyone I work with acts like I'm the weirdest fucker in the world. I've listened to metal, hip-hop, orchestral, ambient, jazz, fusion, and prog-rock today and this girl keeps commenting how my music is shit because she's never heard any of it before. And most of this stuff isn't obscure at all.
I'd be delighted if anyone within 4 city blocks of me had heard of Celtic Frost, even if they didn't like it.

I work with like four other people who have decent to good taste in music. The goth girl in the office is into pretty decent stuff too. I just have one of those shitty jobs that shitty losers get, so some people listen to metal and punk here.BUNGVOX wrote:yeah but the person you're talking about is a rarity in the workplace.Unholy Massacre wrote:It still doesn't stop it from being a dumb comment.MANTIS wrote:If I play any music other than top 40 shit, everyone I work with acts like I'm the weirdest fucker in the world.

I got the exact same reaction for listening to RIHANNA because it wasn't her most recent album and people didn't recognize her older/non-singles. There's really no winning.MANTIS wrote:If I play any music other than top 40 shit, everyone I work with acts like I'm the weirdest fucker in the world.
