Hmm. Looks like I need to post more.
OK, so a certain someone has posted like almost 10X as many posts as me?

Flames obviously haven't been working dudes. This person's asbestos suit is ON.

While I understand the utility of adjustable/removable straps that can criss-cross or halter or whatever, I don't believe I have ever seen a shirt that would necessitate straps in that particular configuration, but we could just be way behind the fashion curve around here. I would think that one strap would either have to be unusually long, or that it's very uncomfortable.

ETA: I realize that the straps are not the point of the picture.

Good point. I imagine the conversations go something like this:

New York: "Oh my fucking God, can you believe what that fucking douchebag did to me? Fucker cut me off in the fucking elevator, and I had to wait until the next one, and I've got clients upstairs. What the fuck."

Minnesota: "I was wondering if you had a problem similar to the one I had at the office today. Do you know Lars? Well, I think he's great, but today he must have been in a hurry and didn't realize that he accidentally caused me to miss my elevator. Usually this isn't a problem, but I had clients from New York with me and we had to wait for the next elevator and you just know how those New Yorkers are. They were not one bit too happy, I'll tell you what.*"

*I don't know why I like this so much all of a sudden, but I do and you all will just have to suffer through it.

Look on the bright side, you can represent her in her inevitable mesothelioma suit. That's what I call a win-win-win proposition.

Truly ironic. I could get her to complain about having terminal cancer on video for money.

New Yorkers, used to their own style of being "honest"* and blowing up, then cooling down and being all fine with everything, could never understand that it took exactly one hint of "tone" with Deb or Barb and they were persona non grata (should there be e's on the ends of persona and grata?) from that day forward. Both behaving impersonally polite, Barb would never say why she would never, ever help that jerk from New York City again (and perhaps couldn't even articulate it to herself), and Deb sure as hell wasn't going to get over it, either. And the New Yorkers never knew what they'd done, but despite all their ranting and raving and complaining to the Powers That Be, not to mention unloading (ever more unwisely) their frustration on other admin types, they only had solace in the fact that they had plenty of company in their misery, and they all liked to talk about it.
Translation: My company is filled with pussies.

Heh.
And can you believe that man still has a job? I mean he and Roethlisberger have perfected the "my helmet looks like a football" schtick.

And creepy, if you're keeping track.

You don't have to worry about Thurgreed. I am the intimidating one on the board.

I love Pam, so I say this with all due affection:
Upper-lip wax: $12.
Not having hair on upper lip: priceless.

Before you get all sensitive and shit, that was a joke. But this isn't: It sounds to me like you're bitching about New Yorkers.

Actually, since I'm just eavesdropping, I usually hear either (1) "Fucking Thurgreed is so stupid" or (2) (first guy) "That Thurgreed fellow..." (second guy) "Oh, yah, know what you mean." :-)

But I'm a former New Yorker, (a) so I can bitch and (b) I am just observing, not really bitching.

Think she doesn't get it waxed to look more homely as Pam?
