I realize the office is
BING!!!
almost empty, but it’s not completelty empty. There
BING!!!
are still other people working here in
BING!!!
this tomb of an office building and every
BING!!!
time your stupid chime sounds on your instant messanger
BING!!!
it echos like a fucking
BING!!!
BING!!!
cathedral bell.
If this was /b/ I’d frame op’s post in a demotivational with the caption:
The Internet
why walk ten feet to tell someone to shh when you could instead post on a server a thousand of miles away?
Edit: not that I disagree with OP. People with annoying sounds or music that don’t use headphones deserve pittings, and possibly small crotch biting dogs thinking there’s beef jerky in their underoos.
Wait til you work in an office with a phone system that rings to alert people to waiting messages - every half an hour. It is such a pain, particularly when working on a weekend. I used to take phone handsets off the hook just to get some peace.

Man, I thought you were yelling at Quasimodem. Like, how the hell can you hear his computer? Are you his stalker or something?
Then I re-read. 
Oh Wow.
Epic woosh. I thought that too. Thought they worked together or something.
I thought that three 
Make that four here.
Five, although I figured it out after re-reading the OP and remembering that our Quasi is retired.
I think.
I think we have a Quasimodem and a Quasimodo both, actually.
Nicely done OP.
Wait, I thought Quasimodem was Quasimodo…
Umm… Six? Seven? Wherever we are now… 
On a school coach trip, the pupils were behaving suspiciously well. I discovered they were texting each other … across the aisle! :eek:
**Quasimodem ** and Quasimodal- I have enough trouble telling those two apart. Then there was Quasimodo!!!
You had me confused!
Along the same lines - A while ago, I was visiting a friend who was dating a younger woman. When I came by, said woman was in the living room with three of their friends. They were all within 5 feet of one another but their conversation was taking place solely through instant messages. There was no sound whatsoever in the room aside from keyboard clicks, for a good few hours. It was creepy.
They might have been discussing you.
