I had a discussion with two guys today about different kinds of couplings. Best couplings. No, man! it's blind! Flat faced!
And how far the pipe goes in. Nips? And can I use a reducer? I need this thing from 10" to 8", or we have to change the inlet.

:sulkiness: Or else it's gonna cost a whole lot of money.

PVC piping.

I remember While making History projects

Kei(my buddy) : i'm making the parthenon model
Mark(another buddy) : you Reg, you did the Theater of Epidaurus one
Me : why?
Mark : nobody wants to do it because of stone background
Me : you guys are nuts
Mark : that was the easiest you know because i'm going to make the Flavian ampitheater
Me : and. . (Because i know giving me the easites will cause me to do another one)
Mark: do the site maps of all four structures
Me : *Speaks in japanese that means "You are all idiot"*

Speaking in japanese while i am angry was the strange things i can do every time while we are working

Not at my current job but back in CID...a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..

My co-worker Travis and myself on any given work day.

Him: "Where we going to lunch today?"

Me: "I'm saving my appetite. Your mom invited me over for dinner and a movie again tonight, and by dinner and a movie I mean sex."

Him: "That was uncalled for."

Me: "So was what your mom did for me last night. She told me to tell you hi by the way and that you should call more often...but not after 9pm because she does her best work after hours."

The only female detective in the unit from two cubicles over: "Geez, you're talking about his mother?"

Me: "Damn right I am, she deserves to be bragged on."

Him: "Thanks "M", at least someone is willing to come to my mom's defense."

M: "No, it was a question. I was just going to comment that if I was gay, I'd totally do your mom, and I still might consider it even though I'm straight."

Another random detective: "Me too. Your mom's quite hot for someone who gave birth to a brain dead scag."

Him: "....I hate all of you."

Supervising Sgt from his office at end of cubicle row: "Everyone stop making fun of T's mom.....I don't want T in a bad mood when I ask him for his mom's phone number later."

It just usually went down hill from there...lmao.

"You guys hear about the 10-7 (deceased) subject on the radio."

"Patrol handling it or are they asking for CID to come out?"

"Sounded like they were wanting someone from CID to come out."

"Ok, best out of three rock paper scissors to see who goes."

Today the president of the company came up to me and another guy.

Who worked on these drawings? We pointed at each other. (both did)

President: "You can't couple here, and the nipple will NOT fit though the manhole"

manhole, exit in an out of a huge tank to crawl through, added an extra pipe nip for like, piping reasons. couple, to go from one size pipe to another.

In your mirror.
Turn it around and do it.
Turn it the other way.
The other way...to your left.
Your other left.
Now we're cooking with gas.
When you're done with that go get the hen-way outta the truck in the cab.
Keep looking.
Give me a sec...almost done here...I'll find it.
It's only short on your end...my end is okay!
Turn green on it.
I don't wanna see any pecker tracks on this one.
We're not making a watch just the box it goes in.
I can't see it from my house.
Turn it around and put it in.
You gotta poke a hole in it first.
Naw, with this stuff you don't have to poke a hole in it, just squeeze.
Whoa now, we just want a little bit.
It's not in right there...can you reach it?...use your handle.
Your other handle.
Your handle.
Try your palm.
Humph, have to cut another one.


o_O :rofl: Most excellent!

I have a co-worker who thinks he's some kind of body language reading expert. I *want* to tell him that unless I'm giving him the finger, he really shouldn't internalize my body language...but, that conversation hasn't happened yet.

Have you ever had to say:

Hank, (insert correct name), what is up your rear NOW?

Have mercy.
