Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

shrift, your stories about your (soon to be former) cow-orkers reminded me of when I left my last job. Someone came in with a project and after dancing around the subject for a while (it hadn't been public announced), I said "I'm leaving". Her response was that if I was going on vacation, did I want to start the project before I left or wait until I came back. When I repeated that I was leaving, she kind of furrowed her brown and looked confused. After several repetitions, I had to spell it out and explain that I had quit and was taking another job with another group.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

So why did none of you tell me about Google in Klingon?

I heard somewhere that in California the mental health agencies have had to have Klingon translators on call, if not on staff, because of the number of people who turn up believing they're Klingons and can't speak English (or any other terrestrial language).

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Snopes says:

The original article stated plainly that "in reality, no patient has yet tried to communicate in Klingon," and noted that the county health department wasn't actually spending any money to hire Klingon interpreters but simply adding Klingon to a list of languages for which interpreters might be needed someday.

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

I almost want to learn Klingon, just so I can read the porn....

I found an online Klingon translator: [link]

Sorry there is no translation in our database for Fuck me hard..

Sorry there is no translation in our database for The penguins have escaped..

Bah. What's the point?

Art Crawl!!!

Klingon is obviously not a natter-friendly language: is there Klingon for Pandas? Ponies? Pirates?

What good is a language that has no word for penguin, I ask you?

Perhaps they have only a word for space-penguin.
