I got one about big pharma. They may have let randomness take over.
I guess it would be tough to pull one out of rotation then. Hopefully when V for Vendetta starts advertising it won't coincide with an article about the London bombings.
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

This is uplifting! An excellent typo.
Personally, I block toads by putting things like screen doors in their way. No point in letting toads into the house.
(I have been following the whole settlement-leaving thing only vaguely, front page photos in the news, etc. Quite a few images of one-on-one argumentation, many angry and/or crying, but none showcasing anything violent, unless you count the hand-gestures of vehement argument.)
Here is a fun one: what are you having/did you have for lunch? What is your ideal workday lunch? (i.e. no cheating and saying "three martinis" unless you've ever really gotten away with that.)

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

When I was a kid, there were all these movies and TV shows depicting business men who had minibars in their offices. Now that I'm grown up I feel deprived....

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
what are you having/did you have for lunch?
Homemade soup. Beef, cauliflower, asparagus, and oyster mushrooms. I keep adding mushrooms to soup and then remembering at lunch time that I don't care for mushrooms in soup. Gotta work on that. Otherwise it's good. I also had some yogurt.
What is your ideal workday lunch?A local restaurant makes a terrific green salad with warm, grilled chicken and full-fat blue cheese dressing (with many chunks of blue cheese). It's huge and keeps me full all afternoon, which is more that I can say about most salads, without inducing post-lunch coma.
Or sushi. But the nearest really good sushi place is too far for convenience, and the above restaurant is less than 10 minutes away.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I had a container of Yoplait key lime pie yogurt for lunch. I don't really have an ideal workday lunch, although if there was a Popeye's closer to me, I might.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'll be having curried snapper and Thai rice noodles for lunch, with some Dannon La Creme and an organic apple of some sort for afters.
What I really like to have for work lunch is sushi -- not lunch special sushi, eaten on your own, but eight-people-out-for-lunch sushi, so you can mix it up and have lots of different stuff.

That's horrible.

Today I'm having a tuna melt. Best lunch in recent memory was when our favorite vendor took the entire ops team out to a terrific bistro and we ate a 3-course meal that took 3 hours. (There were no martinis, but there were three glasses of wine. Not much else got done that day.)

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I'll be having winter squash soup--pureed butternut squash, potatoes, and apple, with milk and apple cider and various fallish apple-related spices. It's very good. Plus, I was more patient about cooking pre-puree this time, so unlike the last squash soup I made, this one does not have crunchy bits in it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Katie, that sounds yummy. Could you post the recipe??
