First world problem of the afternoon is the free beer in the lounge tastes skunky. They need to clean their lines.

Got a toothpaste sample from my dentist, tried to use it this afternoon (when I woke up), and found out the piece of shit had some safety cap under the cap. Instructions told me to use a part of the bigger cap to open the inside cap... Tried it, bigger cap hurt my hand, I stripped the inside cap, so I trashed the entire unused POS.

First you can't use a urinal without pissing on yourself

Now you can't use a toothpaste sample without fucking the whole thing up and hurting your hand

Have you considered seppeku?

:biggrin:

Now I just need to convince my boss to let me leave a little earlier today so I can do sit in the lounge, have a drink and unwind. Been a hectic week. Need to get the weekend started ASAP.

You keep bringing up the lounge. Drinking at work is one of the last things I'd want to do if I was leaving early.

Now if it was drinking while having to work on something low maintenance then that'd be cool.

Are you that guy that comes in to the office on your day's off to 'hang'?

Got a bone in my flounder that I almost choked on.

Thinking about suing fish company cause there is no warning on the package concerneing fish bones in flounder?

How was I to know that fish have bones?? :(

I have actually! But you are obviously mistaken because I haven't used a urinal in years. It's handicap stall or nothing, yo.

Didn't have my glasses on or contacts in, so couldn't see shit. And I have a temper. Pissed me off that it was so hard to open a stupid free sample.

The problem is worse than I thought O_O can't even blame it on the splashback.

You've clearly not squatted over a toilet before because there is plenty of flashback if you're sloppy ;). If you face forward, the splashback just hits your pants so you don't feel it.

Why squat? Sitting has worked for me for decades.

the problem today is that i wore a sweatshirt under my lighter weight jacket because it just wasn't cold enough to bust out the down jacket. i hate wearing multiple layers.
