Two-Block Radius / Chow / Tech Found in the Office

Posted by on Tue, Oct 4, 2011 at 12:01 PM

So I went over to the Information Superhighway Office™ to complain about something not working (again), and no one was there (as usual), except for Anthony Hecht, who was apparently so enthralled by specs on the new iPod Nano, that he didn't even look up from his screen. Joke's on them, though, because they left an unguarded piece of pizza with some interesting new type of mushroom or something on it. I grabbed it and ran back to the safety of the editorial office where I will now devour it. Score!

Somebody call the EMTs. Brissey is about to end up under his desk again.

Moldy food is really high up on the list of things that gross me out. I'm glad I didn't look too closely at this picture...

You stole someone's lunch while they were away from their desk. How do you sleep at night?

This would go so well with a refreshing cup of yellow snow.

Mr. Hecht is going to be pissed that you stole his Chia Pet.

At least in my office people have the decency to leave their moldy food in the refrigerators.

Yeah... I think I'd have just left that right where I found it.

@15:

Only if somebody sticks it in your eye.

And why is it, if the mold is on the inside of a piece of cheese, it's considered some sort of hoity-toity delicacy, but when it's on the outside of a piece of cheese, it's considered poison?

gee man maybe because one tastes good and one doesn't.

All mold is not the same. Whatever random fungus that is sporulating on your nasty old cheese is not the same animal that is intentionally incorporated into it.

My mother (who worked for the Food and Drug) taught me that if there is mold on a block of cheese all I needed to do was to scrape/cut off the mold and wipe the rest with vinegar.
