GorbaChavez: have you caught the show, Castle?
NotTheMama: of course! it's the only way i can get my Nate fix
NotTheMama: even tho it's not really a great show, in and of itself
NotTheMama: i don't like the chick... smthg about her acting puts me off
NotTheMama: i also kinda started watching desp housewives, and just remembered he was on that for a bit
NotTheMama: and once again, i've said too much
GorbaChavez: yes, I am aware he was on the show
NotTheMama: you understand i watch DH only as background
NotTheMama: i in no way shape or form curl up on the couch with a box of Bon Bons
NotTheMama: and tell the wife to "leave me alone... i'm watchin' mah stories!"

Take it easy, Champ. Why don't you sit this next one out, stop talking for a while.

NotTheMama: today, to a co-worker, i said "and how did you take those dumps?"
NotTheMama: i love I.T.

One Ring to Rule them All

Cha'baller: team lunch today, btw
GorbaChavez: you fuckers always have team lunches
Cha'baller: i know, you love my company
GorbaChavez: [removed]?
Cha'baller: um, no
Cha'baller: you have exposed an interesting grammar problem
GorbaChavez: the company of men?
Cha'baller: ah, i meant the verb form, and you implied the noun
Cha'baller: unfortunately, the synonyms for the verb form are lacking
GorbaChavez: company is a verb?
Cha'baller: as in keeping company
Cha'baller: a consort
Cha'baller: to accompany
GorbaChavez: a companion?
Cha'baller: indeed, but not in the sense of my regular "companion"
Cha'baller: ha, fellowship!

Cha'baller: i know, you love my fellowship
GorbaChavez: fellowship of the ring?

To Lunch, or not To Lunch

Cha'baller: lunch plans today?
GorbaChavez: I plan to lunch
Cha'baller: but with whom

Cha'baller: as though a lunch with any other man would taste as sweet
Cha'baller: oh, that i might be that napkin upon her lap, that drip of mustard across her cheek
Cha'baller: lunch, it is the east; and the works, she is the sun
GorbaChavez: you have outdone yourself

Okiagari-koboshi

Cristmas: I do like my job, just wish it didn't feel so wobbly these days
Iceberg: We gotta be like Weebles.
Iceberg: Weebles wobble, but they don't fall down.
Iceberg: Those motherfuckers don't fall down, yo!
Cristmas: That seems like great advice?
Iceberg: This is what passes for a pep talk in my world.

Once again, I've said too much

NotTheMama: thinking about getting this for work... meetings, etc.
NotTheMama: lugging my 17-inch monster back and forth is annoying
NotTheMama: that didn't come out right
GorbaChavez: you said it, Sister!
