    Happened to my girlfriend. She was back to working in a doughnut shop after it was closed for cleaning a few days, when a reporter burst in the back with a camera crew. She said the shop had the lowest health score in Colorado Springs and how she felt being open again. All she could think was ‘I just fucking work here.’

      Why was there a camera crew there? Were the donuts exceptionally amazingly newsworthy in spite of the dismal health rating?

    You get paid $5000 per day for the rest of your life (matching inflation), but the American Kitchen Nightmares editors get to omnisciently and in real time control the sound effects in your life. Only you hear them, but you can never tune them out. Do you accept?

    The first time I robotripped using delsym instead of Robitussin I didn’t think about how delsym lasts way longer. I woke up the next day still tripping and went into my retail job, hoping to hide out in a quiet corner until it passed.

    Of course that was the day the regional manager was visiting the store and I had to give them a tour of my department for some reason.

      In the Netherlands, they take celebrating carnaval very seriously. Nobody walks straight the Monday after carnaval. Still, they forced a guy to come in on that Monday. The guy was there, at 8 am. There went to work straight from the bar, undefined stains on his clothes, smelling of beer and cigarettes, shedding small amounts of confetti when he went for coffee, but he was there. Nothing much productive was done that day. How management thought it would turn out any differently is anyone’s guess.

    I remember in high school one day, about noon, I shared a fat spliff with friends. I completely forgot I had to meet with the principal professor and my parents at 13 to discuss my behaviour. They were not convinced
