The Honeymoon is over

Me: I hope you aren't playing around on youtube over there. The network is creeping.
Coworker #1: I'm looking at softcore porn.
Me: You're a gross boy. A gross boy with cooties.
Coworker #1: You know what they say about people who say things like that?
Me: That I'm a gross boy with cooties?
Coworker #1: That you have feelings for me.
Me: Right. This is me pushing you in the metaphorical sand. Pardon me as I get down on one knee and profess my undying love for you.
Me: In other news - I'm serious, I can't do anything the network is so slow.
Coworker #1: I guess the honey moon is over.
---
Coworker #2: Who's car is that?
Coworker #1: Mine.
Me: But it'll be mine after the divorce.
Coworker #1: Since we broke up things aren't the same between us. You act so different.

Explaining the meaning of "literally"

Heather: that button doesn't work on the radio. It's literally crap.
Me: no, it's not /literally/ crap. That would mean that this is /actual/ crap. Like, right now, this is poop ::points::
-----------
Heather: I put the cat in the tub and gave him his ball. It was funny, he was having a ball.
Me: /literally/ having a ball. Note the difference?

Jason: Ashe!
me: jas!
Jason: I keep thinking in your new avatar that you have a pig nose.
me: :O

i hope this isnt your way of telling me youre madly in love with me.

I'm an old [Thug4LIFE] soul.

Ron: Look at all these kids with their phones. [motions to three of the other guys playing with their cell phones] I used to carry around a baseball and a glove. [He motions to me] You probably used to carry around a doll. This is their version of that.
Scott: Ron, *how* old do you think Ashe is? You act like she is your age. [Ron is the oldest one of us all, I am the youngest by at least 10 years].
Ashe: I'm an old soul, Scott. He probably thinks I used to play with a stick and hoop, too.
Ron: Yeah, but you're from the midwest.
Ashe: Actually, I'm from the east coast.
Ron: Oh.
Tim: Yeah, don't you see her when she comes in? She's all "East SIIII-EEE-DE" and Scott is all "West COAST!".
Ashe: Yeah, and then we have a gang war and rap about it.

Bacon powers

Me: [listening to Buzz Out Loud 906, they are talking about that Bacalicious website]
Coworker: Are they talking about bacon?
Me: Yeah, there's a website where you can put in a website address and it'll serve you the page with a big piece of bacon on it.
Coworker: Why?
Me: Dunno. The internet is obsessed with bacon lately.
Coworker: Okay. How'd that get started?
Me: Truthfully, I do not know. The internet is a crazy place. You just have to hope that the people involved in these crazy memes are using their bacon powers for good and not evil.

I need to think of a new career.

me: you know jordan
there is a little voice in my head every now and again in my head and it says "JUDGE!" and its yours.
Jordan: success!!!
i hope it's deep and manly
me: of course
just like yours
Jordan: i've always wanted to be a voice in someone's head!
me: makes sense that it is mine
me: im not going to be able to judge ever again
my career is over
guess i cant be one of those sassy tv judges
Jordan: my voice will fade
and the judge within you will arise
me: and just be left with an image of you, arms crossed, looking disapproving and shaking your head
thats a powerful image, jordan
enough to shake someone to the core.

Boss: That isn't you.
Me: Yes it is!
Boss: No it isn't. How do I know that's you?
Me: Because it looks just like me? Because it IS me?
Boss: I never see you with your hair down.
Me: That's because when my techs step out of line I have to be ready to beat them like a ninja. And ninjas cant have hair in their eyes.
Boss: You look like a librarian.

Me: The blender. It's loud.
Boss: You're joking?
Me: No, I regularly get smashed at work. Why do you think the network cabling is all over the place? I just say "SCREW IT!" and plug it in wherever the shapes match.
Boss: I never know when to take you seriously.
Me: It's an art that is like wine - it just get better with age.
Boss: So I have to look forward to more of this?
