It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Why would you play Muzak "I just called to say I love you" hold music? Because you hate the world?

"There's no WAY she likes that song! Ooh, sorry- is she in a coma?"

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

Because you hate the world?

Either that, or you're a self-loathing solipsist.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I read in Reader's Digest once about horrified employees who'd just put their company's chairman of the board on hold when Johnny Paychek's "Take This Job and Shove It" came on the office radio that was tuned to the same station that provided their hold muzak.

The Dumbo octopus looks like a real-life Pokemon character.

Our phones have a horrible feature: you can force the recipient's phone to go into speakerphone mode. Basically, you can FORCE their phone to answer.

One of officemate's bosses likes to use this feature if his callee doesn't pick up. You know, when they might have a valid reason for doing so?

Anyway, I remarked that it was a horrible feature to have.

So the guys next door, who can hear everything through the walls, are now torturing me with it.

I'm sure my big boss is wondering why I just shouted YOU ARE SO EVIL down the hall.

So 12.

Compassionately intolerant

I'm currently earwormed with the Lemonheads Confetti.

He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he couldve.
The storys getting closer to the end.
He kinda shoulda sorta woulda loved her if he couldve.
Hed rather be alone than pretend.

She just wanted him to love her but he didnt.
He took to the woods and wandered in it.
Walked along and on until they couldnt.
Stole himself to tell her that he wouldnt.

The tempo is way more upbeat than a breakup song should be but that is sort of perfect for where I am emotionally. A little sad, but even more glad to be moving on.

The fact that I'm possessed by a breakup song speaks to the fact that the whole matchdotcom thing may have been a bit premature. Ima leave that alone for a while.

Not if they unplug it.

But really, that is just an awesome amount of flubdubbery....

Hey, this reminds me, I heard the perfect story for MM and Aimee this morning on NPR. It had camels, of course. And! They were jockeyed by robots!
