Marek Posted July 28, 2005 I came into the office this morning and as I opened the door my boss stood in the middle of the office floor, totally freaking out. He was like "WHAT THE F--- WHAT THE FUUUUUCK HAPPENED TO YOU??? I have NEVER seen ANYTHING like that!" Someone behind him was laughing. Then he pointed me to one of our programmers, whose arms were totally covered in huge tattoos, from his shoulders all the way down to his arms. Dragons, hearts, roses, the works. This was remarkable given that this guy didn't have any tattoos before. Except it was basically just drawn onto a panty pantyhose, which was sown to the shirt he was wearing, but this was really really hard to see and it also took me 10 seconds to figure out. I hope that thing isn't a standard joke store / hip clothing store item or it won't actually be as hilarious. Otherwise it's probably the best prank ever.

Marek Posted July 28, 2005 You know, a transparent flesh-colored very thin long sock? I have no better way of describing it. And when I googled for "panties" I got too many images that aren't work safe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marek Posted July 28, 2005 Something much more remarkable just happened. The new coffee machine arrived! The vibe is like it's Christmas. Everyone stopped working, fought to tear open the boxes, etc. It's just been installed and we made our very first cup. It's being passed around in a circle. It's good.

miffy495 Posted July 29, 2005 Dunno, but I'm now going to wear one of those things the next time I go to a buddy's house. I hope it's Russell. I haven't seen him in about a month and he'd probably have a heart attack... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Erwin_Br Posted July 30, 2005 What on Earth is Gaggia? I don't know, but I bet you've got a Douwe Egberts machine. Am I right? Also, you guys should get a Cup a Soup machine as well. It's very popular at the office. --Erwin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marek Posted July 30, 2005 We had a Douwe Egberts machine for a month or two, but then I guess everyone got depressed by how much its coffee seemed like liquified shit. The new one we've got looks sorta like that picture, except there's a seperate bean grinder and two of those handles that you can put the coffee in. We do not have a Cup a Soup machine, though there's some bags in the cupboard that no one ever uses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanJW Posted July 31, 2005 These?SOmething about searching google for panties and finsing Obi Wan? Oh, god I'm sorry Steve, I tried to quote your post and accidentally edited it. I am a bad moderator I meant to say: Round here we call those stockings. And that I wish our office had coffee machine, but first I would like them to filter the sulphur out of the tap water. I wish that was a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
