436 - "No One Gets IT Support Without Singing The Blues", Mail-Order Jerkface, "For Good Cheer Call Stacy's Mom", Adulturated Pool, A New Business For A Great 'Murica!, and The Accurate Really True Honest History Of Oreo Biscuits!

[10:12 AM] Ms. Rose:
I am so tired. Is it 5:30 yet?
[10:15 AM] Mr. Silver:
Yes
On that note, is it just me, or when an agent working from home opens up their call with something like "When I woke up this morning", do you always hear a Blues riff after?
[10:17 AM] Mr. Blue:
lol
buh NUH NUH nuh
"and my internet wa'n't workin'"
[10:18 AM] Mr. Silver:
Yes
"And when I got home last night..."
buh nuh NAH NAH NAH nuh
"the net still wasn't working..."
buh nuh NAH NAH NAH nuh
I just can't help hearing it if the tone and the pause is right
[10:21 AM] Ms. Rose:
So many words.
[10:21 AM] Mr. Silver:
I've been like that since I got drunk at a house party and we played "Nobody gets out of here without singing the blues"
[10:23 AM] Ms. Rose:
Who wants to edit my emairs today?
[10:23 AM] Mr. Silver:
(changes r to l) there you go
I'd have to be drunk to play that game...it's hard to get me to even talk at parties
[10:29 AM] Ms. Rose:
...that's what she said?



[11:53 AM] Ms. Rose:
HUGE Jerkface.
   [11:51 AM] Mr. Oleo:
   You wanna take a half day and leave at 1?
   [11:51 AM] Ms. Rose:
   No. I would like to stay here and attempt to write some good emairs, in between naps.
   [11:51 AM] Mr. Oleo:
   okie
   [11:52 AM] Ms. Rose:
   Honey. Why do you do these things to me?
   I have a very small brain. I cannot make decisionings.
   [11:52 AM] Mr. Oleo:
   It's no problem at all if you want to stay
[12:06 PM] Mr. Silver:
Where's the jerkface part?
There's the Snarkgirl superpower stuff.
[12:08 PM] Ms. Rose:
*signs Silver up for monthly Jerkface Club meetings*
[12:09 PM] Mr. Silver:
(Holds out "Life Member" card for inspection)
[12:09 PM] Ms. Rose:
*takes another nap on desk*  *hopes that Silver won't share this with the Russians*
[12:10 PM] Mr. Silver:
(Jerks card from Ms. Rose's grasp when she reaches for it)
Russia loves you
[12:11 PM] Ms. Rose:
If only they provided as many mail-order husbands as they do brides.
[12:13 PM] Mr. Silver:
(Anthropologist interest piqued... Search "mail order husband")
Well...it exists.
[12:15 PM] Ms. Rose:
Hey, I'm a member of the postcard club online. So I'm kind of a big deal.
[12:16 PM] Mr. Silver:
[12:16 PM] Ms. Rose:
You are a more terribler person than me, Mr. Silver.
[12:17 PM] Mr. Silver:
Sorry...it sounded like a Benny Hill skit
In cases like this, I always hear the standup of a Japanese comedian who never made it but ended up on HBO once.
She had a heavy accent, but it was roughly:
"How can a woman be homeless?  How that possible?  She's a woman.  Just get a man, right?  It easy.  I mean, I see how a man can get homeless, because men are sometimes e-stupid."
I always wondered if she picked that up that extra E from Spanish.
So...what kind of estupid men end up in a mail-order situation anyway?
[12:25 PM] Mr. Blue:
Sounds like Miss Swan
[12:26 PM] Mr. Silver:
Miss Swan might well have been inspired by her...it was long before that character, though.
[12:26 PM] Ms. Rose:
I am so tired. Have I mentioned this?



[9:48 AM] Ms. Rose:
I just wrote on the "Good Cheer" wall. I stated: “For a good time call 867-5309”. Do yinz think I'll be fired?
[9:58 AM] Mr. Blue:
Is that the one that says "attitude fresh up a grilling"?
[9:59 AM] Ms. Rose:
It used to. For many many months. But now it's just some construction paper with markers and lots of opportunities for...nice workplace words. (devil)
[10:00 AM] Mr. Blue:
Write on there "Investigate 9/11"
[10:00 AM] Mr. Silver:
There's some of good cheer, right there
[10:06 AM] Ms. Rose:
Stacy complained about my 867-5309 comment. So I'm copying/pasting all the lyrics to "Stacy's Mom" in a very not passive-aggressive way. (Did I mention I went to bed at 5:00 AM? I am too tired for a filter.)
[10:07 AM] Mr. Silver:
Joke’s on her, really
[10:07 AM] Mr. Blue:
That didn't take long for someone to complain
Like 19 minutes?
[10:08 AM] Mr. Silver:
Ms. Rose "I wished to provide good cheer at the expense of all the grumps who couldn't be bothered to 'get it'. Me?  Despite this disciplinary meeting, I'm laughing like crazy on the inside."
[10:08 AM] Ms. Rose:
Maybe "complain" is a strong word. But those lyrics about her mom put Stacy right in her place. (I just want to sleep!)
[10:09 AM] Mr. Blue:
Heir to the diner & car wash empire
[10:10 AM] Ms. Rose:
And for real, that video of "Stacy's Mom" kinda makes me want to go back to All-Girls College.



[1:20 PM]Ms. Rose
    [1:16 PM] Linda:
    Hello!  Would you like to revise the email for the Superbowl pool.....Squares going fast
    ... something to that effect?
Have a look please...(emairs)
[1:24 PM] Mr. Silver:
"You squares need to get in the pool, fast."
[1:24 PM] Ms. Rose:
YASSS! (y)
[1:25 PM] Mr. Silver:
"If you want your 'square' to have any effect, it costs $10, same as downtown."
"For a good time call 867-5309."
[1:25 PM] Ms. Rose:
(rofl)(rofl)(rofl)(rofl) Well remembered.
I triple dog dare yinz to make me put that in the emair. Linda never reads ANYTHING before forwarding. I could slip it in between the countdown clock and the Terrible Towel.
I want to, sooooo bad! (Really, really need to sleep.)
[1:32 PM] Mr. Silver:
Just put Linda's name on it
[1:40 PM] Ms. Rose:
Sending my "draft" to Linda. Guess how many minutes before she just sends it to everyone.
[1:41 PM] Mr. Silver:
What text did you end up ending your career with?
[1:42 PM] Ms. Rose:
I added "For a good time call 867-5309" at the very bottom, but in white text.
[1:42 PM] Mr. Silver:
Hehe
Sneaky
[1:43 PM] Ms. Rose:
Whatev. I will be an extremely sleepy goddess if she sends this out to everyone. Any minute now.



[3:10 PM] Ms. Rose:
We're kind of like circus monkeys.
[3:11 PM] Mr. Silver:
Drive little chariots in ancient Rome?
I agree
[3:25 PM] Ms. Rose:
Considering the current climate, I was thinking of opening a business called “TRADITIONS OF AMERICA WITH THE KILLING OF BALDING EAGLES WITH OUR GOD-GIVEN GUNS, INC.”
[3:27 PM] Mr. Silver:
(CEO) "Our goal at TAKBEGGG, INC is to make America traditional again!  Back to 16 hour factory days for 8 year olds and native genocide!  Cyanide gold extraction and coal coal coal!"
[3:27 PM] Ms. Rose:
Maybe in Comic Sans
That makes prefect sense to me. *sleeping on desk again again*
[3:31 PM] Mr. Silver:
(CEO) "In these dark days of America's post-Obama retro-birth, I always think back to a quote from Myles Standish as they were robbing redskin graves to get through that terrible first winter - 'Anything good in that one?'."



[2:49 PM] Mr. Silver:
Ugh... Hate original Oreos...
---
"In 1890, 8 New York City bakeries that had no qualified creative chefs got together and threw money at the problem. They build a giant 6-story factory the watched to see if anything would come out for the next eight years”
In 1901, still failing to cook anything good, they clubbed and skinned the staff of the American Biscuit and Manufacturing Company and raided their recipes.  But they were just as bad."
"In 1912 they tried to make biscuits but they ended up making 3 cookies by mistake instead."
"The 'Trio', as they came to be known, consisted of
“The Mother Goose Biscuit (fois gras between pancakes)
"The Veronese Biscuit (Parmesan patties with hard salami paste covered in marinara)
"and The Oreo Biscuit (bad tasting chalky carbon disks with a dusting of bitter
chocolate, with a lard and sugar filling)
"Several factories were burned to the ground after the Trio was introduced to the public, leaving only Oreos intact within the military tins that were purchased to be fired at the Germans in France during the war.
"Starving to death, the allied troops fell in love with Oreos and a cookie empire was born."
---
Fun as it was to re-write that history, it was most amusing to read far enough down to find out they actually stole the recipe.
