At work...

Oh, Alli, that gave me an idea...

You could get a remote controlled car and zip it around under people's feet at the water cooler! That would be funny!

Or - - make a bunch of paper airplanes, stand on your desk, launch them all, and scream "INCOMING!!!!!"

Oh, gawd, people at my office are in for something today...

Just keep refreshing dz.com to see if a new post showed up in talkback... Then you can get up and go to the bathroom, and there'll be lots of posts to catch up on.

Or you could do some of my work...

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

OK, I know it's probably just about quitting time for you, but next time this situation arises- you know what to do:


Office Games
The idea is to score the most points. Your attempts need to be verified by either a player or non-player.

ONE-POINT GAGS
- Run one lap around the office at top speed.
- Ignore the first five people who say ‘good morning’ to you.
- Phone someone in the office you barely know, leave your name and say, "Just called to say I can’t talk right now. Bye."
- To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and grimace.
- In the middle of a meeting, suddenly shout out "Yahtzee!"
- Walk sideways to the photocopier.
- While riding an elevator, gasp dramatically every time the doors open.

THREE-POINT GAGS
- Say to your boss, "I like your style" and shoot him/her with double-barreled fingers.
- Babble incoherently at a fellow employee then ask "Did you get all that? I don’t want to have to repeat it."
- Page yourself over the intercom (do not disguise your voice).
- Kneel in front of the water cooler and drink directly from the nozzle (there must be a ‘non-player’ within sight).
- Shout random numbers while someone is counting.

FIVE POINT GAGS
- At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it would be nice to conclude with the singing of the national anthem (15 extra points if you actually launch into it yourself).
- Walk into a very busy person’s office and while they watch you with growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times.
- For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as ‘Bob’.
- Announce to everyone in a meeting that you "really have to go do number two."
- After every sentence, say ‘mon’ in a really bad Jamaican accent as in "the report’s on your desk, mon." Keep this up for one hour.
- While an office mate is out, move their chair into the elevator.
- In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly and mutter, "Shut up all of you, just shut up!"
- At lunchtime, get down on your knees and announce, "As God is my witness, I’ll never go hungry again."
- Carry your keyboard over to your colleague and ask, "You wanna trade?"
- Repeat the following conversation 10 times to the same person- "Do you hear that?" "What?" "Never mind, it’s gone now".
- Come to work in army fatigues and when asked why, say, "I can’t talk about it"
- Find a vacuum and start vacuuming around your desk.
- Hang a two-foot long piece of toilet roll from the back of your pants and act genuinely surprised when someone points it out.
- Tuck one pant leg into your sock and when queried, answer, “not now" and walk away.


Have fun!!

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?
