Somebody save me......I'm being sucked into a black hole......

[live4christp1]

.............my co-workers are in rare form this morning!!!!


They have been chattering non-stop since about 7:15 AM mostly all bologna and bogus......but they actually believe it.......some probably still believe the earth is flat too............so

Here are a few of the tall tales I've heard this morning...........

It is possible to pick a snake (poisonous like copperhead, rattlesnake, etc) up by the tail and pop it like a whip and it's head will pop right off.

Also, you can get repeatedly bitten by a poison snake on purpose to make yourself immune to the venom.

Also you can fall in a pile of fire ants........have them cleaned off you, go to the hospital and be attacked by ants surrounding the hospital because they smell the other ant bites.

They've moved on to conspiracy theroies now about oil, the polar ice caps, and global warming.



Please someone tell me how to make it stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I need to get one of those "fart machines" I saw at a souvineer http://www.thefartmachine.com/ shop on a recent trip. Think that might clear them out???????

I have just one co-worker that makes everyone cringe the minute she starts talking because we never know what's going to come out of her mouth. We all pray it's directed at someone else. Lucky for us, she takes turns with each of us throughout the week.

Where on earth do you work??

Where on earth do you work??

At a warehouse (I'm the data entry/shipping & receiving/export clerk). Somedays I think it's more like the Twilight Zone.

More stories today were:

Japanese hornets were eradicated from the area by the government secretly by some mystery spray dropped by airplane because they didn't want us to know they were here. Just google Japanese hornets in Tennessee.

There were killer bees here but they were able to contain them and move them.

They also believe that WWF (if that's still what it's called) is real.

Oh, and there is this chemical that they put in pools that will turn the water a different color if someone urinates in the pool so that people know.

I love google. I just google all the stuff they shovel. Print out my answer and lay it on the counter.

Thanks for a giggle this morning! Gotta love the office chatter - I hate it when my DH (the REAL boss and owner) is out because they all feel they need to share with me instead. His door is closed this morning so I have had a few visitors. Amazing the things people will talk about!

 

[KristaTX]

Are you sure they aren't just trying to one-up each other with urban legends? Why would all this random stuff even come up? Weird.

 

[minniecarousel]

It's stories like these that makes me happy that I work alone. (when anyone comes into my office, they're teachers, so no idiotic chastter!)

Get an iPod and listen to it!

I heard that Disney is going to start using this. So now, beside the previous-years-refillable mug police and the pool hopping police, they'll now be pool peeing police.

Its too bad you don't work in my office. Our facilities manager actually does have one of those fart machines. He likes to use it in the elevator to see if anyone will say anything. Or he'll make it go off when he's alone on the elevator, but right before the doors open, so anyone waiting can hear it, just to see their faces. LOL

Wait, wait, wait... you're going on the Internet to get AWAY from nonsense-spouting lunatics?

 

[SydneyFalco]

Heck, I write blog cartoons about how I wish my co-workers would say interesting things.

1. Your co-workers are causing the Southern USA stereotype to live on
2. I thought you could build up an immunity to snake venom by introducing it into your system in small doses? Not exactly the method they suggest, but just wondering....
3. You should show them this - always helpful in my opinion: snopes.com

consider it material for a book, and then start writing.
