Now why can’t *I* get a job like that? I could do hilarious things! They’d mostly be aimed at people who steal lunches from the Break Room fridge– everybody (except for the lunch-thieves) loves that!
Did you know that phenolphthalein, the acid-base indicator in chemistry sets for kids, is the same chemical that used to be used as the active ingredient in laxatives? And if you add it to the right foodstuffs, it’s colorless and odorless.
Just being conversational…
I’m a bit surprised he doesn’t know that already. Most mad professors already do, after all, and he *does* look like he’s been around long enough to find out. But he looks *happy* to be lobotomized and condemned to endless meetings (or whatever analogue St Charlie uses: endless feasts of stale brains?)
They’re actually quite collectable now, and look very nice on your shelf in their little protective boxes. I’m still searching for a Lichtenstein hap, those are hard to find. There’s talk of an app coming out to help (or am I thinking of that other craze?)
(Unfortunately the etymology of this word is not actually the same as that of “hapless”. A hap, in Scots, is something you wrap up in, so a shawl. The hap in “hapless” means luck or good fortune, and is the root word for “happy” and “happenstance” among other words.)
Meritocracy!
Worse–Microsoft!
Let’s just hope his new black robes don’t cover up his bike wheels…
I assume they are always on the outside, no matter what he wears
And now we know how seriously St. Charlie is taking this. ^_^

They’re all Mad. It’s really hard to distinguish between their “taking something seriously” and their “hilarity ensues”.
Hey, now… “Hilarity Ensues” requires a SERIOUS amount of work to pull off. Don’t discount what serious people will do to unsure that hilarity ensues.

I like the way you think, Smithnik.
The “right” foodstuffs being the ones with neutral pH?
The perks of managment!
He is going to find out being promoted to management is punishment. He has been Peter princapled.

Maybe one of those guys behind her can give him theirs.
This bodes predictive for the competition. hapless stooges sometimes come out on top!
I for one have never had any use for haps.

Okay, I’ll bite. What are “haps?”
Thus proving you are hapless.
Not much here. What’s happening with you?
