In a past job, we sometimes used donors' names as curses. "What in the B-----???" It was funny, until I actually met Mrs. B.
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
When I was in college, for a while we adopted "Pope" as a swear word.
"Pope you, motherpoper!"

My mother used "Ayatollah Khomeni" as a swear word when I was a girl. It does have a ring to it, but is now sadly outdated (he died.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I like "scheisse." I should try to use that more often. You can put a lot of rage and venom into "scheisse."
I picked that one up from Run Lola Run.

Hooray! I have a bathroom to use!
Unfortunately, it has no door and there are all these construction workers around, but I don't care.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So that was weird.
Got called over for birthday cakery. Everyone's speaking a language I don't. They then sing a version of happy birthday with God in it, and two of the guys hand feed the birthday boy tiramisu.
I ended up wandering off. If they can't be bothered to speak English, there's really no point me hanging around.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I used to watch my mouth really carefully at work, but then my Mormon boss was let go and replaced by an Italian from Queens. So things have loosened up a bit.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I have four onerous tasks.
Someone will need to threaten to fire me so that I will accomplish them.

I have been told I don't swear enough at work. I have trained myself over the years to say Fudge or Bless instead of my usual dirty words, I don't see that changing soon.

ALLYSON! do one of them.
Well, the sell of the PS2 may fall through, as pick-up cannot be scheduled until Sunday. BUT, it looks like I have a buyer for the Guitar Hero games and guitars as well. YAY!
Now I am really motivated to list a bunch of other stuff for sale. too bad, I have to be somewhere tonight or I could crank out ebay and craigslist listings.
