there are PLENTY of people here that i avoid as it is. the last thing i need is a reason for them to stop at my desk and try to chat me up about where i got "that little turtle statue" or if i knew "where that postcard was taken."

no.

I found it hilarious that you guys bitch about coworkers talking to you at your desk, but post messages on a message board that pretty much reflect the exact same banality.  Tit for tat.

Quoteno.

is it "hilarious?"  do you laugh out loud at it and kinda tear up?  is it SO funny that you share these stories with friends and family at the supper table and everyone gets a good chuckle out of it?  banality- nice word power, nerd

Yes.

And your ubiqitous, generic yet stylized reply is also full of jocularity.  I am guffawing at the very intrinsic value of your mastery of the English language.

Wow.  And I thought just Pearl Jam fans were dicks.  Why don't you all knock it off and give each other a little love?

I have Kinder Egg toys and White House contraband on my desk.
Sometimes I wear pants.

Let's see if I can get this right.  We're being compared to PJ fans....because the obvious was pointed out?  Sorry, no sale.

i don't have a bit..my supervisor next to me has about 50 stuffed animals and a bunch of fake plants/flowers...when people that don't work here walk by they sometimes make a comment about how empty my cubicle is compared to hers...i just  force a tiny smile, shrug, and mentally flip them off and think about songs that i like and they walk off and i resume what i'm doing then at night i track down the people making the comments and watch them eat donuts until they slumber and if i'm really feeling crazy i walk home
