I'm watching the Learning Channel with the guys. It's an interesting documentary on ocean industry.

me to Virgil and Alan: "some people really work for a living, eh?"

Alan: "yeah...and it's pretty entertaining watching them too."


This place is straight out of a sitcom at times.

time 5pm
enter Rob Moffett, annoying guy who talks at you while purveying his despairing need for socialization with ANYONE...
Virgil, Alan, and I simultaneously mouth the words "ah, fuck" inaudibly.

Rob: "Gosh I just ran into Steve in the hall and that guy just talks my ear off"

me, unenthusiastically: "oh, really?"

Rob "yeah, he's weird...he goes on and on talking about things I really couldn't care about"

me: "and he just doesn't get the hint, right?"

Rob "yeah...he doesn't understand that nobody likes him"

me: "you try not to make eye contact, right? ...And as soon as they look at you, you know you're fucked even though you haven't even acknowledged their presence?"

*at this point Virgil and Alan are obviously about to bust out laughing*

Virgil throws a save by mentioning Steve's fondness for guns. Rob starts rambling again. Fer phawks sake this guy makes me want to pull my hair out. By this time though, Virgil is throwing in more and better references to our intolerance of him than I. Now Alan and myself are laughing hysterically and Rob is too so he doesn't feel left out of the joke. FINALLY Rob says, "I'm taking off now, see you guys," We just looked at eachother for a few seconds with a "what the fuck just happened?" look on our faces.

Better than television...guess you had to be here.

I think I can picture it in my head pretty damn well... Virgil is way cool.
