That is amazing and horrifying in equal measures. But I'm glad Casper knows Sixteen Candles.
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!

Oh jeez -- I almost said something to my team member who reads Ask A Manager to make sure the new team members know not to give gifts up the chain of command, but that seemed presumptuous. And then one of them just gave me a gift! Which I'm sure she thought she had to after I gave her one yesterday! Argh.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
There's a fish pedicure place in town, and I didn't even know it until I got a Groupon offer for it today. I've wanted to do that for YEARS. So I pounced on that Groupon in a hot second. SO EXCITE.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Is there a special name for that? Or should I google "fish pedicure"? Cause now I want one.

Doh, Jesse!!
My manager gave me a $15 GC to amazon. Which is cool, but I think it's probably her own money (and she has like 15 reports?). And then I feel guilty I didn't. Uh anything for any of my people? But...(they are not my direct reports, they are working for me on this project, but still)

I wouldn't get anything for someone who wasn't a direct report. (And I might not have this year, due to paying out of pocket for other stuff this fall that the org used to pay for, except I did it last year and some of the people are the same ....)

My horrible old boss gave really nice gifts. This good boss gives nothing. I prefer getting nothing and having a considerate boss.
