Ever think the quality of your conversations is suffering due to instant messangering?
Patrick415: Hey, how’s it going?
JW-Hammer1: Not much.
Patrick415: I said “how is it going,” not “what are you doing,”
JW-Hammer1: Sorry. I’m just a little distracted.
Patrick415: Why, what’s up?
JW-Hammer1: Did you hear about this think in Serbia? Seems pretty messed up.
Patrick415: The embassy being burned? Yeah, it’s a little scary.
JW-Hammer1: I mean, don’t you think we should go to the Serbian embassy and give them a little taste of their own medicine?
Patrick415: No. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
JW-Hammer1: Who said anything about making a wrong? I’m talking about burning that SOB to the ground.
Patrick415: I don’t think there’s a Serbian embassy in New York.
JW-Hammer1: Yeah there is, there’s one just down the street from my office?
Patrick415: That’s a Sbarros.
JW-Hammer1: Not following you.
Patrick415: You’re thinking of a pizza place. I was talking about an embassy.
JW-Hammer1: Which is the one with the shitty pizza?
Patrick415: That would be Sbarros.
JW-Hammer1: So let’s burn it down.
Patrick415: I don’t think burning down a Sbarros is going to accomplish anything.
JW-Hammer1: Of course it’s not going to accomplish anything, but it’s going to send a message.
Patrick415: What message would that be?
JW-Hammer1: …Give me good pizza or give me liberty!!
Patrick415: It’s “give me liberty or give me death”
JW-Hammer1: No pizza?
Patrick415: Nope.
JW-Hammer1: You sure.
Patrick415: Way over 100% sure.
JW-Hammer1: Fine, but I feel like a total jack ass having lugged this big can of gasoline into work. People on the subway were giving me dirty looks.
Patrick415: I wonder why that is.
JW-Hammer1: It’s probably because of the gasoline.
Patrick415: I’ve got to get to work.
JW-Hammer1: Cool. I’m gonna put this can of gasoline on the elevator and run away. I’m pretty sure I can get fired for bringing this into work.
Patrick415: Yeah, I’m sure you can.
JW-Hammer1: If they fire me, I’m gonna burn my office down.
Patrick415: Ok, gotta run. Keep your pyromaniac thoughts to a minimum.
JW-Hammer1: No problem. All I can think about is pizza right now. When does Serbia open?
Patrick415 has signed off.
