Things I've learned from my coworkers:
- It's not like anyone is going to kill you for being gay!
- Japanese people carry around money in suitcases.
- It's okay to say "ching chong chang ching" in imitation of Japanese language if one's husband is Korean.
- All women deeply hate each other and would go for the kill if not for the intervention of the all-knowing male.
- Transgender people hate their parents.
- Feminists hate men. (As in, "oh, don't give money to the Women's Center! They hate men over there." Honey, sometimes there's plenty of man hate over here. I really don't have to commute.)
- George Bush is God. And Hilary Clinton is a dirty, dirty, home-wrecking slut ball-breaker lesbian.
- Obama rhymes with Osama. And you know what that means... (An opportunity for dirty limericks?)
- It's micromyalgia. Or fibromic. Or, alternately, "in your condition". *handwave*
- Only men enjoy eating meat. (Presumably women choke their protein down while surpressing the gag reflex. Me, I've been bleeding from the uterus for too long, thank you PCOS, and if you don't give me red meat I will kill you with my bare hands.)
- And in conclusion: Communists.

ETA: Updated the icon in light of recent issues my coworker is going through. Her husband isn't doing well post-surgery, to the tune of ICU. I know she has her issues, but now she needs to be supported while her family is struggling. Thank you.

Oh, that definitely sounds like a challenging (insane?) environment to work in. *shakes head*

If it helps it is the same all over the world. People are stupid a lot of the time.

Isn't it sad that it's illegal to kill people.

*head desk* Much of that reminds me of the woman who used to work in same position as me. She listened to Rush Limbaugh on the radio in her office and often made offhand references to, "Oh, you know how the [ethnic group] are." And laughed when I got disgusted. Although she also thought it was laughable and stupid that anybody would chose to not eat meat.

But she got fired for being a sucktastic employee and I got a raise so I WON I WON! ;)

Well, now I'm curious about dirty limericks involving Obama and Osama!

PS-Those people suck! And not in the good way. Or if they do, they're really bad at it! *throws shoe*

huh, lots of Koreans hate the Japanese (historical reasons) so that wouldn't be the place to get advice :)

Yes I am willfully ignoring how ghastly those people sound.

http://koreabeat.com/?p=1094 <--- teen korean lesbians, I think you might enjoy this. Umm, that sounded bad, it's an article!

"sometimes there's plenty of man hate over here"

I seem to notice that straight women bitch about men the most.

I would have tales of my workplace if I didn't so studiously go LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU DOING MY WORK NOT LISTENING in my head.

Oh don't forget how if you are raised by a homosexual parent that automatically means's you'll be gay too! Or how if your a feminist you must be a lesbian and never shave!

I am so so sorry you have to work with such stupid people. I can simpathise.

Today's slogan at work was "stupid people make me wanna die." Although that was pretty much not employees, just customers. Still. The slogan was a true statement.

I got called a Communist by a troll last week. Does that count for anything?

No, seriously. Is there something in the water?

In other news, con this weekend! So I can grovel in person for more of your awesome fics. Erm, okay, I will try to tone down the groveling and sublimate it into shameless flattery for you and your wife and your (plural you) fics.

In other news, I hope when the zombie apocalypse comes, it arrives and attacks your coworkers first. I'm just sayin.
