I suppose "Overcoming urges to gruesomely slaughter higher-ups who subject me to awkward self-reviews" wouldn't fly too well, would it?
No, but give me some vodka and I'll do it. This is torture.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I don't think it means anything, Connie. I mean, nothing beyond the fact that it is.
ION, fuck me. My boss just told me to call a courier to pick something up, and they won't be here for an hour! I've been here since 8 this morning. But the truly terrible part is, I've already turned in my time sheet!!! Maybe I can just leave it with a note.
I just heard one of my cow-orkers, obviously on the phone with her kid, say "Have fun! Make good choices!"
I didn't think any parent actually said things like that.Mine did. Those very words.
What the hell is Moxie? (The brand name)
Some nasty-tasting soda pop, far as I can tell.
My mother really said, "Be good. If you can't be good, be careful. If you can't be careful, name it after me."
Old school soda brand.
Moxie is still for sale, I think, in some states. It is a dark-colored soda, and then there used to be a brand fo flavored Moxie seltzers I drank when I was a preteen. Moxie soda I have avoided, but the seltzers were quite good.
I think Moxie is regional to the northeast, so I am not surprised it is Ted Williams shilling for it.
Har. I just thought this kid who came off the elevator was the messenger, but no -- he was a grad student. Ah well.
I'm leaving anyway.
