Good times.

I still have to post my followup, but I don't have time tonight. Instead, I'll share this small part of my day.

I was waiting in the grill line at the cafeteria today when I got a text message from my buddy Yort.

"Lunchin?" it said.

I had seen him sitting in a conference room on my way down to the chow line so I figured he was working through lunch.

"Waiting in line right now." I replied.

A few seconds later, I got another message. "Dammit!" it said.

So I bailed on the line and walked back to the conference room. He was gone. I walked back to his desk. Not there. I walked back toward the cafeteria just in case I had missed him somehow.

I sent him another message. "Where r u?"

While I was waiting, I decided to hit the bathroom down the hall. Just before I walked in the door, another message came in. It just said, "Baffroom."

I realized the implications of my friend texting me from a stall, but I walked in to take a leak anyway. I immediately saw his sneakers under the handicapper stall door. More room for texting, I guess.

I did my business, and as I was washing up, I yelled over to him. "Hey! Pinch it off and get out of there. I don't have all day!"

He flushed, opened the stall door, and walked out.

It was some dude I had never seen before.

Fucking New Balance.

  12. Be thankful you didn't decide to soak your "friend" with a cup of water, or take the stall door off its hinges, or barracade him in the bathroom by blocking the door and pretend to hold him hostage.

    My best friend came to my mom's work with me once when we were kids (my mom was working for INS in DC and was kinda high up). We were in the bathroom and my friend got the brilliant idea of kicking in a stall door of one she thought was empty... too bad it was my mom's BOSS sitting on the toilet!

  21. It might have ended worse if you'd tried saying your "I am NOT gay" line again.

  28. Hilarious! Did he wash his hands? Or did he just run out of the bathroom? Sounds like you scared the crap out of him. Pun intended.

    ReplyDelete
  29. So what happened after he came out? Did you play it off like you were really angry and inform him you can't just sit on the can all damn day long, because other people need to take craps too? Or did you just go with "my bad, nice shoes"?

    ReplyDelete
  30. I went with "pretending to wash my hands and hope he blamed the guy who just came in."
