Conversations Among Coworkers
AA: I'd ask JD to come but he doesn't like Thai food.
Me: What! JD, you don't like Thai food? You Communist!
AA: ooh she called you a communist!
JD: Hey TN is the one wearing a red shirt.
TN: It's a Wisconsin shirt.
Me: So he's a Wisconsin Communist. [to JD] You... heathen!
AA: Are communists atheists? A heathen communist makes sense then.
Me: He probably hates kittens to.
AA: Oooh now you made him mad, look. He has a cat.
JD: [mock offended look]
[later]
SG: So JD, want to experience the joys of parenthood this Thanksgiving?
JD: Want me to watch Noah for you? Sure. Except I don't know what to do. Have him stare at the wall all day, toss him some food now and then... just like a cat.
Me: Put him in the litterbox when he has to go... What, this isn't how it works? Doesn't the feathery toy thing on a string work to amuse some kids?
SG: [to JD] You'd be a wonderful parent.
I'm glad the people in my group can take some joking. I'd hate to be in an ultra political correct group.
[EDIT] The random conversations just don't stop today. A discussion began when JD said his parents walk 4mph and it's easy. AA contests that it's not easy.
Mike: The average walking speed is 3 mph.
Me: What's average? Show me.
Mike: Well, I walk slowly..
Me: You mosey.
Mike: Next time you walk down the hall, speed up 1/3 and that's 4mph.
Me: So, it's a "need to go to the bathroom" walk?
Mike: But not need to go to the bathroom too much or it slows you down.
[later]
AA: Now you're backpedding on your argument! Admit I'm right.
SG: [to JD] Don't give in! Hold out! Waffle! Flip flop!
[JD walks down the aisle later moving his arms in mock speed walking with a smile.]
SG: Maybe you two should race.
Me: What! JD, you don't like Thai food? You Communist!
AA: ooh she called you a communist!
JD: Hey TN is the one wearing a red shirt.
TN: It's a Wisconsin shirt.
