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

Lip smacking might work.

It would be such a pale impersonation of her own smacking, though. I'd need a noise I could truly make my own.

I'm snorting at my desk, and it's all your fault!

Check and see if your co-workers are IMing about you ... me, I just slid down in my chair but she can still see me. Oh, I look a little insane.

Chewing ice! Or hard candy!

I wince everytime my officemate starts chewing on a mint. It sounds like teeth breaking.

A nasal wheeze?

Growling. Or singing very quietly.

That would rock. I could send an e-mail to the rest of the team to tell them to let my chomping slide for just one week, while I got some small shred of revenge. Plus, I like ice.

She does that too. I mean, she has an impressive ouevre of things that make it impossible for me to pay attention to anything for more than a minute or two at a time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no! I think I was that person yesterday. I got a big fast-food soda, and spent the whole afternoon rattling ice in the plastic cup before chewing on it.

Oops.

I chew ice too (though I try not to) but sometimes hearing other people do it just makes my jaw hurt.

Check and see if your co-workers are IMing about you

We have an open-mockery policy at my office. And besides, 90% of my coworkers are gone, so not so much with the covert snarking, I'm thinking.

oh, I HATE that. I have a coworker that hums TUNELESSLY when she works. She also talks to herself.

ION, I thought movies were on PPV before they were on DVD? Is it the opposite?
