Why do people bring 10 course meals to work for lunch. I went to heat up a sandwich and both microwaves are being used for multiple containers. Each it going to take 10 minutes!

Just shaving my head and looking like buddha will be my plan, since I rather be bald than have a crown

I didn't think choy's went bald!

My maternal grandfather at 84 years old has like the same amount of hair that I do at 25. All he needs is to dye it black. So I think I'm fine. It's wierd actually. He looks like he's still 50 years old. And he can grow facial hair and I can't!

Ditto for me. Both of my grandfathers had full heads of hair into their late 70s/80s. I actually have the opposite problem... every time I get my hair cut, the hair cutter complains about how thick and straight my hair is.

The handle is usually there so you don't have to get hand prints on the glass.


When going through any type of commercial door I always check which side the door closer (the metal box with the arm at the top of the door) is on. If it isn't on the side I'm approaching then I assume that it is a door that I have to push to open. This strategy usually works.

You should slip a little extra super hot sauce into the food of these microwave hogs. Especially since it's your last week!

I'm in the law library on 5 and our kitchen is chronically underused. The fridge is always empty, the cupboards and shelves have nothing in them. The microwave is always free. There is a brand new dishwasher that I know will never be used in 20 years. There are still things left over from construction that haven't been moved. For awhile I was the only guy in the place for months so it was like that episode of Seinfeld where George had his own private bathroom.

Baby Shampoo - I find nothing worse to use on my hair than that. It is the most drying shampoo there is.

ARGH... I went to another floor and the same thing!
I've already eaten half my sandwich cold.

I'm going to give the gangs a call, someone is going to pay!

you'll get over it. I just look at it as one less thing I have to worry about in the morning. no bad hair days. and yeah, the constanza look is so brutal. Just go the the barber once or twice a month and get the #1.

Or just do it yourself. I shave my head at least twice a week without a guard on it at all. Takes like 5 minutes in the morning before a shower.

I'm too skinny, I'd look silly without hair. Like the alien from alien autopsy.

That will totally heat things up.

Just grow some facial hair to compensate for the baldness.

Doesn't work if I'm incapable of growing facial hair. Damn Asian hairless gene

Hmm...so some wise guy pulled a trick on me...

[The Fonz]

I desperately want to grow a gross porn stache, but for some reason I can't get any facial hair on my upper lip, at all. I could do sideburns, chin strap, beard, whatever, but no moustache for me.

I don't like the girl who works at the Starbucks near here. She thinks she's better than me, I can tell. This was our exchange today:

Her: Hi.
Me: Just give me a grande mild roast.
Her: Okay.
*she gets it*
Her: That'll be $$.
Me: Here.
Her: Have a good day.
Me: ...

What a bag!

Grrr, I had my car in the shop today, it's been acting up and the engine light was on, also I needed an oil change, tire rotation, the usual maintenance stuff. They tell me what's wrong etc, I tell them to go ahead fix it. I go to pick it up, pay an OUTRAGEOUS bill, and when I drive it back to work, it's doing the same thing it was before I brought it in. Also, I strongly suspect they did not rotate my tires. My left front tire was a little soft when I brought it in this morning, and looking at it now, it looks exactly the same, I'm sure that tire is the same one as this morning and therefore wasn't rotated.
Also, we had snow last night, the wheel covers were pretty dirty and there are no marks on them like someone had touched them to take them off.

Hm.. tattoo across the back of the skull then?

I feel destined to die alone. Or end up shacked up with some crazy broad which will be worse than dying alone.
