It's the weather omnis. I feel like I could pass out right here at the keyboard. I would leave early, but everyone else is out, so I soldier on.
I cannot remember the last time it rained for this long here.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Aims, I think your coworkers lost the moral high-ground in that conversation first.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Attacking the size of one's anything (aside from boobs when said in a flirty, eyebrow-waggle sort of way) is NOT something I do. Ever. But I wasn't even speaking to her, and quite frankly, I'm tired of her bullshit remarks as she walks by anyone. "Whose lunch stinks?" "What are you *wearing*?" "[insert various insulting crap that she feels like spewing]".

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You are a dangerous and wonderful person to know, SH. (Fire pretty)

They did. Not that either was really an awesome thing to say but I'd just suck it up, apologize and move right on if that is possible.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I hate that kind of attitude. And it's so transparent. It's that mean girl, "I'm going to keep you on shaky ground so I feel more stable" crap.

Well, her boss turned it into a funny, parrying-banter type thing when BossLady stood up and yelled, "OH SNAP!" and started laughing. Then co-worker started laughing, and me and the person I was helping started laughing and then co-worker came over, lifted the back of her shirt and said, "I have NO ASS! I wish it were big!" and it was fine, but fuck I wish I could control my mouth sometimes. And I also wish I felt worse about it than I do, because it was a sucky thing to say and two wrongs don't make a right, but dammit, I have the right to not have something I have no control over not be insulted, too.
I'm really not trying to be right in this, or even justified really, but dammit, I'm human and sometimes, I just want to say rude shit back to people who say rude things first.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
and two wrongs don't make a right
well, sometimes they do...

that says to me that her boss totally knew what was up, but didn't want to start anything, so she handled it like a joke.

Yeah, good job boss of Aim's obnoxious co-worker. Sorry you feel bad, Aims. It's hard to be gracious and polite when faced with unremitting onslaught of the opposite.
