my love weighs a ton
so i’m on the bus with ‘i wanna know girls’ playing fr the 5th or so time on loop. Mac is a genius and for any doubters I offer the line: “my love is like an uzi, oh yeah my love weighs a ton.” if you don’t get it then you wouldn’t know genius if a nation of millions of geniuses bum rushed your poor ignorant ass.
but today is a special day because it’s the RTM party for Office 12. A couple years in the making and my 4th ship party (all for office) in eight years. The sad thing is that they’re draining the fountains. it’s a tradition that everyone gets thrown in the fountain at the ship party. Well, almost everyone - last release coworkerX and I were going to try to pick up and toss in coworkedY when coworkerY busted out a pugilist stance straight out of “oh, brother, where art thou?” and told us he would throw down if we tried to dunk him (which turned out to be more fun than actually tossing him in). but anyway, the fountains are drained. what’s up with that, Steve? Bill? And we just got the towels back! regardless - it’ll be bittersweet since a lot of the old crew (Howard, Moshe, Chris) have moved on, but it will certainly still nice to celebrate many years of work one more time.
