I hate to be the one to break this to you, Sue, but it was following you.

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

Well, duh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did I say this the last time we were talking about annoying elevator behavior? The people who go to get off when the doors open on 3 to let me on (going down) really confuse me, because it must mean they aren't counting the bells that go off as the car goes past each floor, and who doesn't do that???

What amazes me about a lot of those is the specific detail involved.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Hey I have a question for anyone with experience in such areas: How do you get rid of a wasps' nest? We have one on our back porch. I'm not too worried yet because so far they've been well behaved neighbors, but I don't want them taking up permanent residence.

I know, and then it would stop and lurk outside the house for most of the night!

At least it didn't kill me in my sleep.

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

a lot of people out there don't know the difference between a compulsion and a neurosis

Distinction being that a compulsion interferes with rational behaviour and a neurosis doesn't?

they aren't counting the bells that go off as the car goes past each floor, and who doesn't do that???
    • Step into elevator
    • Space out
    • Step off

See? Simple. Last time I did that and got off at floor #2 I chastised the not-that-close co-workers who didn't say anything to me. One replied that he just wanted to watch me walk away, so I've proactively forgotten who he is.
