I guess it would depend on how badly I need to use the bathroom... If it's becoming an emergency situation then I'll go pretty much anywhere.

Most people get way less picky once they're legitimately afraid they'll shit their pants

I got a job once at this little video production company, and everyone was always trying to find pens. I'm pretty sure this one smart ass there was stealing them just because he thought it was funny that no one could ever find one...

Anyway, it was probably my second week on the job and I got pissed off because there were like 10 cups that were supposed to have pens in them at all times and I couldn't find a single one, so I went to the grocery store across the street and bought like 3 boxes of pens and filled all the cups again with the warning that these were my pens that everyone was welcome to use but if they all went missing I would start keeping them locked in my car. Everyone seemed happy to have pens again.

I got hauled into the managers office 2 hours later and questioned as to why I spent my own money on office supplies, why I didn't just requisition more pens, told never to do that again and handed a check for $11 for "stationary supplies".

That was the last time I ever bought anything for anybody at work ever again lol

People had been complaining about the pens since my first day there lol all the pens I bought were gone after about a month and they all went back to complaining again. I think one of the managers supplied a single 10 pack of pens once the whole time I worked there. I just kept a box of my own in my car for me to use lol

I thought it was those folding pliers that have a knife and a screwdriver in the handle?

MrJameGumb , vor 2 Monaten

So... basically the sonic screwdriver from Doctor Who then?

I feel like that's a reasonable response to a valid argument

Does that mean the rent is reduced? I'll move in tomorrow! Bring in extra ghosts if it will save money!

I hate to say this but I've honestly just gotten used to the idea at this point. I've been watching the people around me howling in support of fascism since about 2015 now and the more egregious these politicians crimes become the louder these idiots seem to howl for them. It's been going so long that it's just part of the background noise of day to day life now, and I'm tired of caring anymore. It's fucking depressing.

My dad used to refer to something he called "Scottish engineering", which meant you start a project with good intentions but just end up swearing frequently and throwing everything in the fire lol
