I just grabbed a six inch sub from AcronymCo’s cafeteria. When they put “extra pickles” (hi, Dys!) on it, as requested, BY GAWD they meant business. Total sandwich weight – 2 lbs. Total pickle weight – 1.5 lbs.
MTAE’s going to make that into something dirty. I know I can count on him for the pithy comment.

On a related note (TB + Dys = related), Taoist Biker recommended in yesterday’s comments that I ride Calvin’s motorcycle as a means to combat boredom. To which I respond thusly:
- BWA! BWA HA! BWA HA HA!
- Calvin would KEEL ME DED.
- The bitch (a Kawasaki Vulcan 2000) weighs a good 800 pounds DRY. I could barely deal with my 900’s weight (about 550 lbs.) when I had it.
- V. Twin. Engine.
- BWA! BWA HA! BWA HA HA!

Overheard just now from two gents walking down the isle near my cubicle:
“It’s small!”
“Small?”
“Yes! Small!”
“Like…?”
“Small, like your head! Your head is small.”
“Oh! Ah… yeah.”
Sometimes, it’s amusing to work in Cubicle Land.

I have a shite-tonne (that’s a technical term, right there) of work to catch up on, and I only took ONE day off. I’d like to think it’s job security, but really I suspect they’re just having me do a lot of senseless tasks. A common source of amusement around here is to print out Dilbert cartoons and replace the text with AcronymCo appropriate wording. You’d be amazed at how few words actually need to be changed. For instance:
That’s so true to life around here that it makes me want to cry a little.
