Lunchroom Banter (Volume XIX)

By Robert Mohns – Tuesday, Dec 9, 2008 / 4:28pm View more articles

Logan, as is his wont, happily trotted into the bizdev office, and picked up Karin's winter boot and began happily whining and walking around with his new prize. Nils noticed and went to the rescue...

  1. Nils: Want me to press the eject button?
  2. Karin: Could you please? I don't want to get slobber on my boot.
  3. Fred: He doesn't slobber, he just puts it in his mouth!
  4. Karin: Here, take this boot and tell me what this is on it.
  5. Fred: I'm not touching that.

Maybe Spit is to Slobber, like a Meteor is to a Metorite....it doesn't get the second classification until it actually hits the ground. I'm sure its a fine science.

I'm 90% sure "IIXX" is a parse error when it comes to roman numerals.

Side note, not sure what roman numeral you are going for but I think you meant XIX, which is 19...

  • A better tool

    Dave Tufts commented: Just downloaded Soulver - it's great. I also like using the search box in my browser or Google. Similar, linear layout to Soulver. (for the record, that giant calculator on my desk looked like a small regular-sized calculator in the picture on Amazon)

    Nick commented: Since Bill didn't do it, I will. "Oh snap!"

  • iMarcians with staying power

    Nick commented: Congratulations on the anniversaries. I had a professor tell me early on at the Art Institute that "you can expect to change web jobs every 2-3 years until you settle somewhere". I love proving this guy wrong every day. Congrats again.

  • Twitter, Alone, Is Not Customer Service

    Jay G commented: Same here, and my story is with Alaska Air, too. Their website said the customer service phone number was open something like 8am-8pm PST, but this was after hours, so I tweeted. Lo, and behold, I got a tweet response in 10 minutes with the 24/7 phone number. But this didn't change the confusion from their website…

  • Mobile browsers: Here's the data

    Robert Mohns commented: The data comes from visitors to iMarc.net — an important detail I forgot to include! — not the web as a whole.

I don't think it has a lot to do…
