The social committee activities always revolve around anything that involves junk food and beer. Some of us not in the "clique" keep recommending other things to do which do no involve those things, but we get out voted. Fortunately my boss is also getting fed up with it and she is on the verge of just abolishing the social committee. Hah!

Literally just happened again to me five minutes ago. Someone put a box of timbits on the corner of my desk, and people have been eating out of it. One co-worker stops by and says "Have one, buddy." I said "No thanks," and immediately he scowls at me and says "WHY?!" I made some lame excuse about having just eaten, but Jesus. I went for a 6k run last night, that was mostly uphill. Why would I want to waste all that effort over some damn timbits?
