I absolutely hate when people at work listen to music through both ear buds and I can still hear their music as if I'm listening to it at my desk. Aside from not wanting to listen to the song she's listening to, I've tried asking her work related questions about 4 times now, and each time I've had to stand up and walk to her desk, scare the crap out of her to get her attention and then ask my question. gah.

stop being passive aggressive... be aggressive aggressive... beat her in the face with the keyboard.

but really, just ask her nicely to turn them down, that the music is very loud and a distraction.

cubicle tactical warfare...... launch staplers randomly, keep people on their toes. friendly fire happens every once in a while.

we have about 9 staplers in my office (just me and my boss), and every once in a while a stapler will be thrown.

I still don't feel well. I just want to go home, but I have distribution today and have to be in the warehouse. Sadface.

It's sad that that guy believes that. The guy basically just said that human reasoning, self control, morals and the law are all nonexistent while asserting that a deity is the ultimate judge of our lives. I once had a conversation with a superchristian (there were plenty in my high school) and asked him where is the proof? He said, you need to have faith, it's all about faith. And I said, why do _I_ need to have faith when in the bible jesus had to prove his power to everyone (water to wine, part the sea, yada yada) Bout the most supernatural things I've been exposed to in my life are a UFO (which probably was plenty explainable in the end) and I swear when I was a kid the basement light was on when the power was off otherwise due to someone hitting a telephone pole near our house. I looked away and looked back and it was off.

I listen to headphones at work, but I can't imagine getting any useful amount of work done with the music that loud. And it's ear buds? That takes some crazy volume for someone else to hear what you're listening to. You should just IM or email her.

You know you could walk up behind them and start announcing random things about her to the other people around that she won't be able to hear. One episode of embarrassment will stop that problem.

"You know I hear sally here has gonorrhea!" "Sally, if you don't have gonorrhea say so". "Nothing?" "Damn, I feel sorry for you."

i listen to music at work all day too. def agree i wouldnt get anything done with all of the other distractions. i'm usually a 1 ear bud kind of person while i'm at work so that I can still hear if people try to convince my office i have some embarrassing disease. i could hear her music over my music today though. just got to me. we say things to her constantly about it.

Nobody would ever accuse a sweetie like you of having an embarassing disease

Bring a Nerf gun to work. Problem solved.

A friend of mine modded some kind of nerf gun by increasing the voltage. It's sick.

Scapegoat · 12-08-2010, 12:13 PM

yeah, i've seen people modify the gatling gun with a larger battery. the problem is that you then risk melting the plastic of the components

**Big_Jim** · 12-08-2010, 12:16 PM

I have the Nerf Vulcan sitting in my house, still in the box, and a complete extra package of darts. dont know why I got it. lol

Scapegoat · 12-08-2010, 12:34 PM

i'd love to set up a night time nerf capture the flag. no rules regarding modifying weapons as long as they fire unchanged factory ammo. if only my backyard was wooded...
