Another Funny Office Predicament

[J0hnny]

I think one of my coworkers here (fairly high up on the management chain) just lost it. He's been sharpening pencils for the last half hour and when i walk by he looks like he wants to cry...

 

[pulse8]

He shares the pain of the pencils.

 

[KLin]

find out if he needs more pencils to sharpen.

 

[lancestorm]

Ask him if he'd like to sharpen your *personal* pencil.

 

[Fritzo]

You don't work at the post office, do you?

 

[yllus]

How beautifully metaphoric. Tell him...tell him I love him. 🙁

 

[Ogg]

lol

 

[y2kc]

get him to confide in you and post all of his personal anguish here...

 

[ActuaryTm]

Not clutching a red Swingline by any chance, is he?

 

[chilled]

If he's finished with that lot, find him another box load that are blunt....!

 

[Bootprint]

Well those pencil shavings do make good fire starters, so it might be a good time to prep for an emergency escape.

 

[shekondar]

Pick up a few that he's just sharpened, and break them right in front of his face!

Better yet, if you have one of those ceiligns that are made out of 2'x4' tiles, start picking them up and throwing them into the ceiling so they stick.

And yes, I think he'sloosing it. I've been staring out my window alot lateley. I'm ready to snap. Even started writing a resume!!!!

 

[BooGiMaN]

id stay far away from him if i was you...last thing you want is to post on here on how to remove a sharp pencil that has been rammed into your neck

 

[George P Burdell]

lol

 

[SirStev0]

you know whatd be funny... if he was a anandtech-er too... and he saw the thread and stab you in the eye...

Sounds like he is preparing to wield his deadly pencils in an all out assault on the office staff, yourself included. For defense I suggest any large binder, legal sized pad or even a trash can will do in a pinch as a basic shield. When he lunges at you with the sharpened instrument of death, parry to the side and beat him over the head with your stapler.

But if he's using #2 pencils, say your prayers 'cause it's all over.

 

[ArmchairAthlete]

Take away his sharpener.

"I belive you have my sharpener."

HAHAHA!!!

 

[J0hnny]

OMG, HE IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE ENTIRE OFFICE TO HAVE A BLACK SWINGLINE STAPLER!!

 

[Xionide]

RUN!

 

[MaxDepth]

You better find some more pencils, ASAP!

Cuz when he runs out of pencils, Mr. Shotgun comes out of the car trunk.

 

[Demon-Xanth]

Just use your letter opener of death. The homies in accounts receevable don't go down that way.
