Believe what you want, he's laughing at your expense.

Eesh, I forgot my stint as a cashier/mop jockey at Burger King one summer at college. Everyone should have to suffer this humiliation, not only does it build character, but it gives you even more ammo to fire at the knuckle-draggers that do it as a career. "NO, DAMNIT! JUST PUSH THE BUTTON WITH THE PICTURE OF THE FRIES ON IT!"

Look at all the varied expertise we have here. If we were all stranded on an island, the skills we have could allow us to create quite the society, except for the lack of women. But that wouldn't be too odd for some of the members here.

We need a plumber.

I've done some of that too, just didn't get paid for it. :icon8:

I've unclogged some toilets that I shat out.

Does that count?

That reminds me...its almost time for my annual shit thread. But there hasn't been much new to write about.
And those things are so 2000-2004ish.

Well, in my opinion, acting like a retard for 5 years and 9455 posts is just as retarded as actually being a retard. Maybe even more retarded...
