This is a pretty lame rant, but…I work on the second floor of my building. We all have cubicles with the easy-to-assemble corner desk thingies. But I am in the middle of the building, and every time somebody walks by, the floor bounces! As do I. And my monitor.

I’m getting fucking seasick! That is all.

You had me worried for a minute there. I thought we were going to need to call a priest.

You’ve scared it! Stop yelling at it so loud - it also might stop the submissive peeing.
