Is it weird that I don't like seeing pictures of dogs with swollen mouths because they tried to eat bees? It's a new fad apparently and it's definitely silly but I think it's more sad than silly.

[Graknorke]

Of course it matters. To use the Mill quote that I've already posted somewhere, "Better to be Socrates dissatisfied than a fool satisfied, better to be a man dissatisfied than a pig satisfied." However, this can be simplified for this argument- "Better to be a man than a pig."

I dunno, pigs are pretty smart and strong and they have interesting genitalia.

Sucker of what? Sucker of cheese? Or is he saying "I'm high, sucka!"?

Walked into the back room at work.

 "...Why the hell are half the floor tiles gone?"

First it was the shelves, and now this.
It's like someone's trying to steal my workplace, one truckload at a time or some shit, like seriously, what the hell?

[TD1]

Did they give a reason, or was it just...gone?

[mastahcheese]

I asked a manager and they just shrugged. Like, nobody knows what the hell goes on around here anymore, and people just learn to stop questioning things.

Next week you'll come in and an entire wall is just missing. Your boss will just shrug and walk through the missing wall into the horizon, never to be seen again.

[Bauglir]

Someone, somewhere will be making a killing on selling scrap metal from the pipes in the aforementioned wall. Sitting on a pile of pilfered office furniture, in the back of a dilapidated pickup truck.

[mastahcheese]

I wouldn't be surprised.
Just about every week some absurd shit happens around here, and the general response is just "huh.", followed by everyone just going right back to work.

Not being amused by something's suffering isn't weird, no.

Apparently it's funny because we are taught from a young age not to mess with bees, but dogs don't know any better, therefor they are idiots, and laughing at idiots is OK.

The converse can also be true, like watching slapstick.

[mastahcheese]

...Actually, I just remembered there was a day when the wall was missing, because some drunk guy drove their car through it.
There was another time when the billboard was taken out by a different drunk driver, but that guy was driving a semi truck.

So no, that's already happened.

Your work sounds like a circus, Mastah.

Out of curiosity, did anyone try to steal the kitchen sink?

[mastahcheese]

Believe it or not, I think it has, because one day it was just gone, too.
But the new one actually works.
