Have you been called "Ma'am" yet? That's always a fun one!

I was 'ma'am'ed' when I was only 19, and by some old fart no less. (He had to have been at least 30). It was horrible.

I get "ma'am'ed" a lot. It doesn't bother me.

Dear CoasterMatt,
Why do I fear that payroll for a major theme park and payroll for a large school district are very similar in stress levels?
Though you have cookies, I have no cookies. I am the provider of all sugar snacks and popcorn in my office.
Cookies would be a nice change.
How's the parking situation?

Dear Time Warner Cable,

Thank you for not giving me the latest cable box, even though you stock them. It's much easier for me to go to your office and exchange the older one your installer gave me than to have had one in the first place.

Sarcastically,
Your new slave

Dear users of Internet Fourms:

Is there a name for this syndrome?

You post a quick offhand comment on some subject you don't really give a rats ass about and then end up getting draw into a detailed set of replies, comments, explanations and extrapolations to the point where it appears to others that this idoit subject is the be-all end-all of your world?

It needs a name.

Kevy Baby · 09-11-2007, 02:01 PM

It has a name: Insanity

No, I think it's called "hitting a nerve in the midst of a discussion".

To the Honorable Comissioner of Patent and Trademarks:

Dear Sir:

The new rules about to go into effect in November, really suck.

My brain hurts just looking at the hoops the Applicant (i.e., me, the assistant to the Patent Attorney who represents the Applicant) will have to jump through to file a Patent Application. May I be so bold to ask, just what the hell will the Examiner's be doing from now on?

I thought the goal was to streamline the process, obviously not from this end. I see.
