the girl in the office next to mine is eating potato chips, one by one. And I can hear it as her mouth closes on it for that first crunch. somehow it gets louder than my music every time i turn it up.

Are you hungover?

I think she likes you.

you logged on to tell me THAT

i am not hungover. guys this is important and no time for jokes!

KEEOWWTCHPOMMPCRUNCHCRUNCHCRUNCH

Give me her number over there and I'll call to politely ask her to stop.

Ahhhh office life.

I feel you. I work in close proximity to two other guys in a large room without walls and for some reason this one guy insists on checking his messages with the speaker on so he doesn't have to hold the phone to his ear. I want to kill him every time because it's like "dude, I'm ten fucking feet from you". He also has Itunes on his computer and only has about 20 albums on it. He listens to them on random and it's the same shit over and over.

His taste borders on decent but the same shit over and over starts to drive you crazy. The funny thing is that he thinks his taste is great and mocks me when on Fridays I start rocking 80's hits and Hair Metal. A dude who just doesn't get it.

NP- At his desk now - John Mayer

Last Played - Indigo Girls

i think she's winding down now. the crunches are becoming more spaced out and quiet. next time, elvis fu, next time

Invite him out for our next mongfest. We'll take care of the problem.

Maybe you can suggest she suck on her chip making it properly soggy before biting down.

That is funny and gross all at the same time. My lunch is over.

well, i guess I'm finally realizing what my girlfriend has been hating. every time i eat chips in front of her, she cringes and I never understood why. so i started chewing really soft and slow but that made it worse.
but now I finally realize why she cringed.

The Salt & Vinegar chips are my favorite kind.

have you considered throwing up on her?

that sounds a lot like my roommate. it's a steady diet of her 5 favorite bands and whatever band some boy she likes is dragging her to see in the next week. it makes me try to overcompensate for her one-dimensionality by playing the most eclectic mixes i can figure.

dude the worse thing is when someone makes popcorn at 3pm in the office. uggggh. i don't know why, but the smell of popcorn bothers me.

Currently, latin music to the left of me, Queen to the right, gospel a few cubes down.

Steve

you're just like that crusty old dean in Real Genius!

i used to work with a girl who ate popcorn every day for lunch, at her desk. We had to tell her to stop after awhile.

far worse was the guy who used to throw frozen fish filets into a toaster over on high and then leave for a half hour while the thing smoked and burnt and generally made everything near the kitchenette smell like burnt frozen fish. i'm still amazed that guy got out of there alive yesterday.

i am so witcha on that one.

np: ellington at newport 1956

There you are, stuck in the middle.

i just moved into a new campus here at my job and it is so quiet compared to my old site. Here there are only a couple hundered employees vs. like 6000 at my old one. Plus free coffee here. They should never have told me about that

Story of my life

I know this girl who cannot go to the movies because the sound of everyone eating popcorn gives her anxiety attacks.

Brilliant!
