**GAAAHHHHHH!** I just went in to get a cup of coffee and she was bent over, cleaning out the shredder. Butt cleavage! GAAAHHHHH, where’re my scissors?! I’m taking both eyes at once!

Am I the only one who thought about Don Martin when reading the thread title?

Well, in her defense, maybe it’s not dirt, but rather acanthosis nigricans? Maybe she has PCOS?

What kind of office do you work in where it’s OK to have a bare midriff and open toed shoes? Do you work for a comic book company? 🙂

I feel your pain. I am a big fat girl and I HATE wearing any sort of shoes that make noise, because I hate being conspicuous. I always thought it was horrible when i was in school and everyone was quiet and you’d hear a “click click click” of a teacher’s shoes down the hallway. I always felt embarassed for the teacher!

And I hate when fat girls wear too-tight shirts too. I mean it’s one thing to have pride in your body and not give a shit what other people think. It’s another thing to accentuate your not-so-beautiful parts with too small clothes. Clothing can accentuate your body if you do it right!

Believe it or not, this corporation is one of the largest economic engines in the state. But there just doesn’t seem to be a dress standard. Fridays are ‘casual’ days. What a joke! We’re talking CEOs with ball caps, shorts and tanks. My idea of office casual is khakis and a polo.

It’s from _Babylon 5_ (the SF series): There was a running joke that the funniest comedy act on Earth was “Rebo and Zooty” and the phrase “zoot zoot zooty” was a standard part of their act. There was one episode where they actually appeared, played by Penn and Teller: [Day of the Dead](http://www.midwinter.com/lurk/countries/us/guide/096.html).

Good grief, talk about a name from the past! I hadn’t heard that for 20 something years but immediately knew who you were talking about. Yeah, I can see him having a heyday with Chef’s clogger.

A teenage hero of mine. Only he would have said “sha-FLUMP”.

I’m at work right now (sssh!!), and I actually made it through this whole post without laughing out loud. That is, until I got to this one word:
