Idiot coworker quote of the day:
"If you're going to buy pop, you might as well buy beer, because it has less calories."

They might be onto something if that weren't COMPLETELY FALSE. Beer is LOADED with calories.

Yeah no shit. And who the fuck says "pop" outside of Michigan?

Actually, Washington is a mix of "soda" and "pop" with a definite emphasis on "pop." I conciously decided to start saying soda in high school, because I like it better.

People seem to think the soda/pop issue is regional, but it seems pretty random to me.

He wasn't talking to me, I merely overheard. Put the aeroplane down.

Wait, he's still a dick. You have my permission to punch him with whatever you like.

For some reason, I interpreted that quote as "haha yeah man, I totally get loaded at work."
