Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

I hate all you people that make the noises.

I used to have a coworker who would jingle the change in his pockets. He did it to such a degree that I wanted to pick him up by the ankles and shake the wee bastard until the mere sight of coin-operated vending machines gave him Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The coat I need.

How do you feel about talkative PDAs/noisy alerts/other people's music?

How talkative is talkative? I don't want to hear entire songs, but something a ring length doesn't bother me.

I read a JRD interview that was very "My old-white-man culture is under attack! Save me!" and it rubbed me the wrong way. His tone on the LotR commentaries also drives me nuts.

My officemate's computer & PDA routinely startle the living crap out of me. Admittedly, I'm jumpy. There is a reason I have the sound off on my computer.

I only threatened his stuff with a drowning when his meeting alert noise was this spooky sounding moo.

Are you sure you don't work with P-C?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

it rubbed me the wrong way.

Yah, me too.

His tone on the LotR commentaries also drives me nuts.

Sometimes. But mostly I can overlook it--at least he's actor-complimentary and stuff. Unlike his personal views on politics and social issues.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

See the model on the bottom of this page? [link] Is it me, or is the mini-pigtail look just goofy on a guy?

"We have trust issues." Mylar

One of my co-workers had a cat's meow as the ring on her cell phone. Didn't bother me a bit, but everyone else complained so much that the poor girl finally changed it.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

I really, really need to go see The San Francisco Ballet. Even though I hate Giselle. Maybe I should go when they do Romeo and Juliet. Hmm.

I both sing and dance in my office. But I have my own office, and I close the door first. And, really, who doesn't sing and dance while making copies?

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Oh dear. Those mini-pigtails are almost as ridiculous as Hornio's on TAR. In general, I find that there are very few men who can pull off the successful ponytail. And pigtails on men are just plain wrong, I don't care how hot you are. (And that model wasn't all that hot to begin with)
