I don't think sexual harassment is funny, of course, but I can bend that a little if it involves an ape.
And I need to see this again too...
The topic just begs for out of context quotations and strange qualification.
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

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

OK, so I just went to an online ASL dictionary [link] and the sign for nipple seems pretty precise for a gorilla. Maybe Koko was doing Isaac Your Bartender, not nipples?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
"There's a history with this nipple thing," he said, leafing through the transcript and pointing out the word "nipple" -- which he'd highlighted in pink -- each time it appeared.
Is it just me, or is the fact that the guy used a pink highlighter for this a little weird?
The suit says the two women, who never did undress, also worked unpaid overtime and faced unsanitary conditions, including gorilla urine stored in the refrigerator where they kept their lunches, rodents in the food preparation area and exposed wires.
I wonder if gorilla urine smells as bad as wombat urine. Is ND around? </Bitches reference>

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
now, if we'll ever remember to bring the tape? separate issue.
Heh. I keep forgetting I don't have a working vcr. Neber mind, but thanks!
When? When did that happen? Does that mean you have to move? Details, please.
I interviewed a week ago monday (the 14th), got offered the job that Thursday, and accepted it on Monday. I will need to move, since Palo Alto is just outside of San Francisco. I start there April 18th if I can, April 25th if not. Meep.

I just got an email from a professor that, yes, I should be prepared to do a presentation tonight. (I emailed last week to check -- the scheduling has been all screwed up.) Good thing I'm (pretending to be) working on it already!

Wow, Lee, go you! And that will mean that your working schedule will be a bit less 24/7? I hope it will. You definitely deserve it.
Jesse, good luck on the presentation.

It's no big thing, but more than 4 hours' notice would have been nice. Speaking of which, maybe I had better buckle down a little.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Jesse, better switch from pretending to work to pretending to work HARD.

Possibly closing this window would be a good start.... I've got the highlights, mostly what I need to do is rephrase stuff so I can say it out loud.
