(Regarding urbandictionary.com)
Brent: How do you create a new definition?
Nate: A lot of urban dictionary users have been able to figure it out.
Brent: You know, when you see a flock of stupid people, it's not always best to follow.
Sudarshan: Yes, you prefer to lead.
Nate: Point, Sudarshan.
- An Interesting Person
-
Lately I've come across a string of interesting people...too many to describe in one sitting, but I've decided to post one interesting person per day for a while. Do you all prefer for me to describe them, or leave it to you to investigate who each person is and what is interesting about him/her?
The interesting person for today is:
D. B. Cooper
- Something is wrong
-
I have noticed that people increasingly respond to unforeseen events with a default reaction of anger and blame.
I find this trend counter -productive and irritating, and I wonder whose fault it is.
- World out of balance
-
I drank a McDonald's strawberry milkshake earlier, and I think it disrupted my soul.
Those food chemists really mastered the flavor, but I haven't felt the same since. I hope I return to normal.
- Sabotage

Last week I arrived one day to strange happenings in my cubicle. Angelina Jolie was guarding the entrance to my cubicle and by the time I got around her the perpetrators were gone and the area was sealed with yellow caution tape. As I stepped around the tape, I found evidence that some strange ritual had been occuring: there were guts and blood smeared across my desk, some kind of strange cards left behind, plus plasticware with salt and pepper.
I think our office is now haunted. Each day I arrive to discover bizarre, supernatural events: mouse balls transformed into pickles, cubicle walls grown to completely envelop their contents, cartons of rotten milk having materialized in strange and inaccessible locations. Soon, I expect to find rivers flowing backward, blood boiling out from the corpses of the dead, software projects completing ahead of schedule and knowledgeable people answering telephone support lines.
Surely, we have done something to anger the gods, and are about to pay a severe price. You have been warned.
