Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

Allyson, these are drunk, singing scientists. You know how dangerous that is. Hell, there are even some engineers in the mix. Thank god the drinks are in the computer room, or they'd be setting fire to something.

I'm tempted to follow in their wake and hand them implements of destruction--matches, fire extinguishes, whipped cream and the like.

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

carolling in groups is one of the only places I can rock out with abandon.

There is also the shower...

I don't hate carollers--I just hate the Christmas music that's most predominant. Singing about the weather and snowmen? Yuck. Please to sing about the baby Jesus.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Those carolers are likely being paid, you realize?

Oh yeah. I ain't singing for free.

Unless it's drunken karaoke.

That's why most of the medical (not socio-spiritual) blame for today's rise in homosexuality must fall upon the rise in soy formula and other soy products.

Wouldn't soy products unlesbicize lesbians though?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Soy is feminizing, and commonly leads to a decrease in the size of the penis, sexual confusion and homosexuality. That's why most of the medical (not socio-spiritual) blame for today's rise in homosexuality must fall upon the rise in soy formula and other soy products.

Wow. Just...wow.

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

If they're scientists, they could probably use some liquid nitrogen....

There is a time and place for carollers. My workplace is not one of them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wouldn't soy products unlesbicize lesbians though?

This is what I was wondering.

I always liked caroling as a kid, but I just like singing.

Probably my favorite Christmas song is the Carol of the Bells, but I think I just like the irony of its minor key and that it sounds more like something that belongs in a horror movie.

Sometimes Christmas carols baffle me though. Best case in point, the song "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year."

There'll be scary ghost stories and tales of the glories
of Christmases long long ago....

Um, who tells scary ghost stories at Christmas?
