Geekdom, Princi, Zazu, and Nameless
Feb. 9th, 2007 12:09 pmAh, the joys of a new forum. Finding new things to discuss or rant into the ground, meeting new people... Realizing that you haven't even been there a day and you've already found the psychotic idiot who will make you wonder everytime you read a post of theirs if maybe, just maybe, someone spiked your drink, cuz whoa, logic and this person parted ways long, long, LONG ago. Now, I love crazy as much [if not moreso] than the next person. I do. If you can rant and rave and weave your own logical web, then I will probably stalk you a bit. But when you've been backed into a corner and told, flat out, that your arguement is just making you sound like a nutjob as it doesn't hold up under scrutiny, and you still copy and paste the same arguement? That's when I wish it were possible to reach out and bitchslap someone far away. Computers should come with little rubber mallets inside and when the right button is pressed by someone else, bam! "Stop being a dumbass, dumbass."
ZzzzzzzzZZZZzzzzzz. Sorry, I'm tired. I also seem to have somehow misplaced $5. I don't know how, but I'm hoping it's in my bathroom somewhere. Or possibly in Mystery Date. I could be okay with that. Otherwise someone else better be enjoying it, dammit.
And now the tale of how I think I narrowly avoided being thought of in a most terrible sort of way. I should mention I called out of work the other night. No, I was not playing sick, and we'll leave it at that. Honestly was sick and no, it was not fun. For some reason people don't like it when you call out, or have someone call you out because you're currently indisposed. I don't know why, but they don't. They seem to think you're out having fun while they are working or sleeping so they can thus resume working in the morning. I dunno.
Anyway, I'm waiting for 8am to hurry her slow little ass and arrive [the hour, not the next person] and Big Boss and First Minion [who is quite nice most of the time, but since he's, as far as I know, next in line for a promotion, he's first minion] are working on V-Day displays. This girl comes in, chatting on her cell, and I say hullo. She ignores me, as people are apt to do, and I go back to willing time to move faster. For about two seconds. Because then CellGirl lets out the loudest, strangest giggle I've ever heard. Like how did that sound manage to be SO loud? So I try not to laugh, cuz, y'know, it'd be rude, and evidence to the contrary, I was raised to be polite.
But years with the Widget have eliminated any sort of poker face I might have, and I must have looked kinda funny, what with my, "What the blue hell was that?" face still in place. The next thing I know, Big Boss is snickering and then turning away to laugh silently, and first minion cracks up and then is on the floor, making with the laughter. I thought I'd die because the whole thing was just so out of the blue.
And now for something completely different.

( Guess whooooo... )
