So are ants and bees.
Jon does not make honey with his ass. He will however sneak into your house when it's raining.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

No, but he has been known to shake his money-maker.

I have also seen him do the dance to direct us to the nectar laden flowers.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Jon's pretty social.
Well, DH is awesome at reading people and social cues. He's just not social or maybe he's just not that into other people. And he's a tad persnickity about things like punctuality and he's freaky-ass ritualistic about some things. Could be he's just an OCD actuary but then I think we might be heading into redundancy. Again.

I have a question, Bitches. My going-away lunch is on Wednesday, and the reservation doesn't include the two new people to the department who started on January 2nd.
Now, I understand how it would be sort of rude to ask them to participate in buying my lunch, but I find it sort of odd to not include them at all. I suppose it's possible they were asked and said they didn't want to have lunch with the rest of us, but that would be odd, also.
So, if you were organizing this lunch for the Reference Department, what would you do about including/not including the newbies?

It is the end of the workday. I have just discovered the gaping hole in the side seam of my shirt. Joy.

I suppose it's possible they were asked and said they didn't want to have lunch with the rest of us, but that would be odd, also.
Depends on how it was presented - if it was "we're all going to lunch", then the new people begging off would be odd, but if it was "we're taking Sparky out", nsm.
How I'd play it...
Maybe make it a farewell Sparky, welcome new people lunch and treat all three of you? Though that sounds expensive.
If someone can be all bossy at the table and announce that the veterans are covering your lunch but the newbies just pay for themselves, that word work, but it would take the right kind of bossy.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Bah. I just had to fire someone during dinner. (Mine, not his.) He's all "Oh. Ok. Thanks." and I'm all shaking and feeling like a huge shite.
Also, Mama~ma to B.
I can't flirt worth a damn. I think I'm flirting, but apparently, to everyone else around me, that's just talking like a normal person. I'd have to go above and beyond to a degree that feels flamboyant and obvious to be actually flirting.

What is even happening?

Uck. Poor both of you, Lilty.
I had to give someone a verbal warning once, and I think I felt sick for three days after. If there were tears, they were mine.
