just as an example

It occurs to me that the reason I do not have a job yet is that, when I am giving someone my CV and they say:

would you prefer a full-time or part-time position?

and I say:

either, I am flexible

I sometimes cannot stop myself from going on to add:

like a serpent

but with hands

werk, whoops, i am not a reasonable person

I would have done the exact same thing. today at work I tried to start a conversation about the guy who invented staples and whether he's still living off the staple money and what if he has a house made of staples and nobody else joined in. :|

I

I love you

We should work in the same place, I think.

I would participate in staple conversations.

I can use a stapler, you see

because unlike the average serpent

I have hands.
