Date Lab

LD in Washington Post Date Lab Interview: "When I'm not working I wear earrings."


Scene: CW passes by JD's cube and notices a strange sign hanging up. It says "FRIENDS WITH"

CW: Who are you friends with?
JD: Huh?
CW: Are you friends with books?
JD: Ohhhh...noooo...that's the other half of the sign down there (points to the Benefits Corner).
CW: What? Are you talking about the Benefits Corner? Is your friend down there?
JD: Noooo...

By now, a small crowd has gathered including JH, PC, & MW. They are already looking at CW in disbelief.

CW: Ok, wait. Benefits corner...friends...with...?
JD: Other way!
CW: Friends with...benefits...corner? Friends with benefits corner.

Everyone is looking at CW wondering if she has any clue what that means...

CW: You guys...!

CW is shaking her head and walks away.

Too Funny...

Ever since I learned that most commercial products put a small 800-number on their packages for consumer questions, I've felt compelled to call the customer service reps to harass them. Each time I do this, readers write in, contending that I am one sick guy.

EMETROL FOR NAUSEA


Me: I feel as though the world is an implacable, oppressive universe, indifferent to me as a human being. Can your product help?

Bridget: What sort of symptoms have you been having?

Me: Nausea, which Jean-Paul Sartre defined as the sickening awareness that we live only with an illusion of free will in an existence that is utterly pointless. Will Emetrol work for me?

Bridget: Let me pull the product information up.

Me:

Bridget: It only relieves nausea due to upset stomachs.

Me: Well, I do feel it in my gut. It's a revulsion caused by the conflict between spiritually destructive conformity and the human need to be authentic. Do you recommend the 4-ounce size, or bigger?

Bridget: Well, the dosage is one to two tablespoons every 15 minutes until the distress subsides.

Me: Whoa, I might need gallons!

Banana Republic

LL to KR: "I didn't ask you to turn it into a banana for me..."

Grill or Grille?

OR

[Anonymous]: I like meat...you know, the kind you put in your grill(e).

Big Enough

SC: Yo, which one is bigger?

JD: Yours is longer than mine.

I'm...I'm...I'm...


JD to PC: So who all is coming tonight?
MW: Meeeeee...
JD: I was talking about softball practice...

A bit premature?


JD: You're done already?
JH: That's what she said...

I want some...


MW: I want something sweet. Do you have any candy?


JD: Yea...man candy.

KP to RS: "I love pine nuts..."

Walk this way

LL: Hey AS!

AS: How did you know it was me coming around the corner? You recognize my walk? I walk like a redneck?

LL: You walk like Lake Show...
