Is that like the areola and lipstick color thing?

I think so, yes. I almost referenced that!

@Doozer said in MSB Peeves:

Dick lips?

In majority of cases, the color of a man's lips match that of the head of his dick.

When I shared this on the game in question, there was a fair bit of 'omg I had to check and it's true' a couple moments later.

I can no longer see nipples and not think of tiny, angry fists.

I hate you all.

Poetic justice for you trolling the Raunchy channel on 5W with the dick lips comment. (I still think the reactions to it were hilarious.)

I wasn't trolling.
I was providing valuable information.

I can no longer see nipples and not think of tiny, angry fists.

I hate you all.

I wish I got dark circles under my eyes.

By that I mean... I've got vitiligo in my face and hands. Around my eyes have lost a lot of color (it began with a section of eyelashes turning white) and it's spreading across my hands. I dunno why it's happening. It's pretty low on the list of things I'll bring up to the doctor.

But man if it doesn't make me feel hideous when I look in the mirror and have this stark contrast of skin. Glasses obscure some of it and p much ensure I'm never gonna get contacts.

@gryphter said in The Work Thread:

@Auspice WTF even.

I can understand it to an extent: we're in the thick of UAT and there's a code release / UAT scheduled for Monday, so he has to be here.

I, on the other hand, do not.

Coworker that had asked for a meeting Monday just stopped by my desk: 'I just realized Monday is Labor Day. If you aren't going to be here, we can reschedule.'

Me: 'Well... I wasn't planning to, but I can be here.'

Him: 'Go ahead and reschedule for another day.'

40 minutes spent guiding a meeting.
Completely unable to process or follow anything anyone else says the rest of the meeting.

When I am less lazy/the soda stream is charged up I just mix my own with the Monin sugar cane cola syrup. (It makes both taste like asphalt by comparison, but nnngh $$$$.)

Nope, just coffee. Forever. YOU CAN'T TRICK ME.

@Auspice I live in a Pepsi bottling town, but weirdly it's not like that here. It's just way more common to find it locally since the local restaurants get a better deal from the distributor that's literally just down the road.

I'm just like 'coffee, seltzer... whatever's on sale this week.'

That's because it's Pepsi. >.>

(I fully admit I am 100% a Coke fan. I get that sense in the summer time of 'man, you know what'd be refreshing right now? A coke.' Pepsi has just always been way too sweet for me.)

ETA: also, in my headcanon, surr only drinks coffee and nothing else.
