This is really a matter between Weiner and his wife.
True, though I really don't want my elected officials doing this kind of thing. I want people with good judgment leading us.
Yes, I'm an optimistic person, why do you ask?
I-I'm just taking things without paying for th... In what twisted dictionary is that stealing?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In other news, I would like to receive credit for the fact that I just got up to get a Klondike bar, and got a banana instead.

Good job, Jesse!
And, before I forget, great job, Ethan!

My favorite was a guy whose online dating profile didn't have any pictures at all, so I asked him for a photo, and he sent me his dick, not his face.
ARGH. People, you suck!
And now My Nemesis has asked me for a report on a project she went out of her way last year to make sure I would not be involved in. My draft reply is:
As nobody has provided me with any of the information regarding the new project at [site], nor has anyone asked me for a NEPA document, no, I do not have a signed Catex for that project.
Is that too whiny? Probably. t growls

That's the type of message I usually send an "I'm confused" response to, i.e., "I'm confused. Did you provide me with information regarding the new project at [site], or ask me for a NEPA document? Because I can't find anything in my files."

Honestly, I charitably attribute it to the Golden Rule -- many many guys would be happy to receive a random body pic, so why wouldn't they send one??

I've stopped being shocked and horrified by politicians and sexual stupidity. I just sigh and shake my head.
I think my reaction to an unsolicited crotch shot would be "Dude, why did you think I wanted to see that?", followed by "Penises look weird," followed by delete.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Crack in the ceiling saga continues. We keep getting assigned to different claim adjusters. I wouldn't care if my husband wasn't explaining the entire history of the claim on the phone right now. Don't people take notes?

Yeah, I just sent back a cheery "Nope, haven't been asked for one, and I recall so-and-so thinking we could just adopt [other agency's]."
The fact that I disagree with so-and-so is beside the point. I'm not in the mood to make life easy for My Nemesis.
Can't wait until my new boss arrives: he's a cheery late-20s engineer with (I suspect) no idea of the toxic swamp of entitlement and resentment he's being thrown into. Woot.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
That's the type of message I usually send an "I'm confused" response to, i.e., "I'm confused. Did you provide me with information regarding the new project at [site], or ask me for a NEPA document? Because I can't find anything in my files."
My version of "I'm confused" usually includes, "Per my understanding of your emails dated [date], [date], [date] and [date], as of [date] my involvement in this project was discontinued and all project management became the responsibility of [name], [name] and you. If there are issues with current management of the project that require my assistance I will be happy to help, but due to the length of time since I was last involved I would need to meet with someone to be brought up to speed on it. I look forward to hearing from you with a clarification on the matter."
Then I never hear from them again.
