Shh! I kinda wanna hear me talking right now!

Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People  

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 look more rad than Lutheranism

Rewatched Eddie Izzard's "Dressed to Circle" (the one entirely in French) the other night - still fucking funny.

It's the Darth Vader at the Death Star cafeteria -- in French -- that makes me lose it every time.

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

It's quite funny if you enjoy random song lyrics and angry screeds. Which I do!

I'll have to check that out....

I have a sock monkey.

I'm #1! I'm #1!! Uh, of course, I'm number one because I'm the biggest user of our primary tool here at work. I use it 3x more than the second place user. Which is a bit horrifying actually. Like seeing post counts.

I hate that. Also, "Workin' hard or hardly workin'?" I will throw my Swingline at you.

It's not like I'm looking for brilliant discourse at the office, but I wish people would stick to "caveman vs. astronaut" levels and stop commenting on things someone with the IQ of a plant would notice.

The status is NOT quo.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRENDA!

HAPPY BELATED, KATE P. AND RLIZ!

And that's all the asscaps I got.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

"Workin' hard or hardly workin'?"

The one that irritated me more than anything was when I worked at a grocery store in high school. For some reason, when a customer's total came out a round number (like 16.00) or some other weird number, like 1776 they would say "Bet you couldn't do that again if you tried!". Except, I could do it again, if I tried. I could ring up the exact same items.

Not to fear - there's an asscap train commin' 'round the mountain....

(No, I don't know what that means. Just feeling surreal today.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, I got endless endless endless rounds of "to the dollar exactly? like, no change at all? how often does that happen?!" when I was working retail. I developed a perfectly deadpan "roughly one time in a hundred."

Hubby's least favorite thing was when people would say "Oh, it must be free!" when there's no price tag on something.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

My least favorite was "Keeping busy?", particularly in jobs in which I was working 12 hours a day.
