Nathan and I have been become more and more alike during the time we've spent working together. It's funny, because in so many ways we're very different people. We're both losing weight, though for Nathan I think it's also somehow affected his height.We also share the same sick, twisted, demented sense of humor. One co-worker, Larrie, who deals with the seedier side of this business has been politely harassed by those who smile to his face and kiss his ass, then rip on him the second he's gone.
This is not an uncommon thing in any job.
What makes this funny to Nathan and I is that despite their attempts to have him thrown out of the office (asshole manager even emptied out his desk for him once), Larrie keeps coming back.
I find this greatly amusing.
Just the other day, our mobile guy was booted out of his semi-office directly in front of Nathan and I. Larrie got yet another repreive and has managed to make his way BACK into our area. This is quite amusing as it seems to frustrate asshole co-worker. Seeing as how Larrie isn't a bad looking guy, he seems to attract the attention of the women in this room as well as our resident gay co-workers.
As Nathan jokingly stated yesterday: "Oh no, this means lots of Leo ass-wiggling." He's referring to one male co-worker in particular who seems overly smitten with Larrie (who is not gay).
We laughed and giggled as we are the mental equivalent of children. Within an hour and a half of Larrie taking over the office today, however, Leo stopped in front of the door, on cue, and began to chat up with Larrie. Nathan and I, unbeknownst to each other, messaged each other the EXACT SAME THING at the same hour, minute, and second.
"And so it begins."
We burst out laughing and no one knew why. Nathan even stood up and walked away from his desk in disbelief.
I think we need to branch out more.
In totally unrelated news, doesn't this get anyone else's geek up?
Look at that! I mean, LOOK at that! It's simply the gorgeous and it fulfills the dreams of that 7 year old kid in me who wanted desperately for there to be a live-action Transformers movie when I was a kid. Only 20 days until the teaser trailer.
They said it couldn't be done. No way. It'd look awful. And they were right. Technology has finally caught up to a point where we can do this right. Then again, with Michael Bay directing (The Rock), who knows what we'll get. I'm hoping for a stylized action epic with lots of battling robots.
Early word is that Bay is auditioning the original voice actors for all the various parts. This must come to be or else I'll start a protest. I'll probably be the only one there, but it's a start. I mean, come ON. Look at the detail in that eye. This movie is going to be insane but it has to be as perfect as possible. The 7 year old in me demands this come to pass.
