I <3 nineRED...

February 25, 2009 4:42 PM

I just wanted to say that nineRED is awesome!

So, I posted a question asking if anyone knew where I could find a shirt similar to what Jennifer Aniston's character from "Office Space" was wearing. And nineRED stepped up. (Thanks, man!) I just thought you should know how our group costume turned out. We didn't win, but everyone in our group thought we were robbed...

Awesome. What was the winning group dressed as?

I don't see 37 pieces of flair.

You didn't burn the place down or anything, did you?

Oh, & you should post this in the original thread too.

That thread is still open, you know.

Well, since you didn't win we're going to have to ask you to come in on Saturday, m'kay? Great.

The winning group was dressed as hippies. They only won because they had more of their co-workers there to cheer for them. Grrr...

And, you can't see, but Joanna had exactly 15 pieces of flair.

Damn hippies.

Try not to pin any flair on your way through the parking lot.

What an obscure reference.

I don't want you to wear more flair. I want you to want to wear more flair.

Just make sure you never meet nineRed in person. We met up once and nineRed tried to convince me that we should fry up my penis, eat it, and then try to kill me.

It was soo uncomfortable for a while. Great bedtime storyteller, though.

Ah! Yeah. It's just we like putting updates to still-open AskMe threads in the thread itself now. So if you could go ahead and try to remember to do that from now on, that'd be greeeeeeeeat. All right!

So did nineRED just have the shirt laying around or what? Were there any suspicious stains on it?

I agree. You should try and kill yourself after your last meal.

Curry, were you being ironic, or did I miss a reference other than "Office Space" and "Clerks"?
