perhaps he was told he could listen to the radio at a reasonable volume

RoxyRollah 08-07-2015 09:03 PM

Radio isnt the same as bad prog tho.Your boss should write him up. I would have. Not for blaring the music but for the type of music.

Speaking your mind with offhand jokes meant to tone down your actual point in hopes that someone will read your subtext without you actually having to confront them is not really speaking your mind.

Could be, but that's not what happened.

But what if you have a mind of a comedian? Huh? You wouldn't be able to speak your mind without it coming off as offhand jokes.

That was my understanding of your explanation as well.

You could always threaten him with a band called The Watch, Jansz. They're so ****ing terrible even prog fans hate them. Yeah, even us!

Or just engage him in a discussion as to whether Gabriel or Collins was better with Genesis, and why. His head will probably implode. Then you can stamp on his music.

RoxyRollah 08-08-2015 06:32 AM

Just walk over to his desk silently and with one full swoop push his computer off the desk and walk back to your desk causally sit down and put your headphones back on, and when the person in the cubical next to you gives you that wtf just happened look tell em "I do dirty deeds dirt cheap." and wink.

Frownland 08-08-2015 08:04 AM

What if the guy takes it as a sign to play some AC/DC? That's just as bad.

The Batlord 08-08-2015 11:34 AM

Just start crop dusting him at regular intervals.

Generally done silently so nobody knows.

The Batlord 08-08-2015 01:04 PM

Also a favored tactic of waiters against douchebag customers.

Janszoon 08-08-2015 01:14 PM

My best ever cropdusting moment was the time when I was at a bar where they were shooting elimiDATE. Got right up close to the contestants on the dance floor and dispersed my payload. I've never seen the episode, but I like to imagine that you could see their facial expressions change a little bit when the cloud hit them.

DwnWthVwls 08-08-2015 01:20 PM

I got crop dusted while cashiering at work the other day. I couldn't even walk away. It was awful.

Don't bang your head like that. I have never heard of that phrase before, except of course in its literal meaning. Learn something new every day, but seriously, I doubt anyone in Ireland has ever heard of that. Monkey, Goofle? Any British people know of it?

You guys know what "Ya wide or wot?" means? Huh? Or what "scutting" is? Or what we mean when we say "How's yer mot these days?"

RoxyRollah 08-08-2015 07:47 PM

No cos that don't make no sense no kinda way.
I get crop dusted frequently in the land of old people.
Lady shat herself in the isle while asking me a question.That was awful. "Where are the gift bags....oooo I have to go."
FML.

Where are the gift bags?

Ugnnnh...

Nevermind, where are the paper towels?

Ashwell John 08-08-2015 08:09 PM

Yesterday I logged onto my YouTube account and passed sometimes there. Really enjoying played some music there too.

RoxyRollah 08-08-2015 09:46 PM

Goofle, I wrote to Urban hatemonger yesterday to please delete Ashwell John's membership as I am about to return to the hospital for an extended stay and I would like him to be gone before I return. He ignored me. I swear that guy is about useless. Would you please be so kind as to delete his membership here? I thought I could do it myself but now I can't a way to do it. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong controls or something. Thank you for you help, sir.

Makes about as much sense as expecting someone who has never heard the phrase cropdusting to know what it means. See? It's all relative to where you live. Anyone in Ireland could tell you what those phrases mean. I can explain them if you're bothered, but just because you don't understand them doesn't mean they make no sense.

Janszoon 08-09-2015 06:12 AM

For the record, I had never heard that phrase until I read this thread. It was just easy to guess what it meant.

^ I'm really sorry to hear that you're going into hospital Roxy, and for "an extended stay." :( I hope things go ok for you and that you have lots of visitors. Will you still be posting here?

Also disturbing for me is what you've said about Ashwell John. As far as I've seen, he is a well-intentioned newcomer who doesn't deserve the extraordinary personal attack you seem to be making. Perhaps his English isn't fluent, but he has the good sense to keep his posts short by expressing his opinions concisely. What harm is there in that ? If he worries you that much, you can always put him on "ignore."

I don't think she's really going to the hospital. Her post was just a reference to a weird post someone made about Urban a while back.

Lisnaholic 08-09-2015 08:44 AM

^ Ok, thanks Jans ! :)

Black Francis 08-09-2015 11:23 AM

Ahhh~

i remember my 1st year here, like Ashwell i used to post simple comments that wouldn't rock the boat and when i tried to be more open in my post i immediately got in trouble. :p:

Ashwell John, ignore the naysayer. Kust keep on shinin', fella.

I've got to keep up the pressure. It was my douchy posts that created the monster you see today, rather than the whiny bitch he used to be. I'm like his dad, and therefore responsible for molding him into the man he needs to be. I'm sure you can understand as a parent.

Plankton 08-11-2015 12:24 PM

Bitch all you've done is make fun of my puertorican heritage, how has that made me a better man!?

Well, with any luck you'll quit being Puerto Rican.
