Still no bagels. The receptionist is checking on them.

Improved productivity to offset the productivity lost to bagel and coffee (hopefully) meetings.

*biting nails*

Have the bagels arrived glatt?

glatt · 02-22-2012, 09:05 AM

Bagels are here!

Lamplighter · 02-22-2012, 09:11 AM

That was almost too much thread drift
The suspense was growing and becoming exciting
But then it got boring

Nice save, Glatt

I'm done my coffee. No bagels.

Undertoad · 02-22-2012, 10:11 AM

My bagels are carb-free.

(This actually means I'm eating cream cheese with a spoon)

Yessireebob. Three cups for me. Is that a county thing?

Holy crap, that was a long and boring meeting. I just got out.

And nobody ate any bagels. So I ate one even though I didn't really want one. Just to make the boss feel like they weren't a waste.

Undertoad · 02-22-2012, 12:17 PM

Yup I'm pretty sure that dropping the "with" is local.

We didn't say that in Harrisburg. I only began encountering it in college (Reading) and then with my ex-wife (Brookhaven) and J (Chester).

The Jersey people would say "I'm going up the mall!" (instead of to the mall)

Stormieweather · 02-22-2012, 12:31 PM

That's ok UT. The WisCANson people say...drive BY the mall, instead of TO the mall.

I used to tease hell out of my ex..."gonna wave hi to it on your way past it?"

Lakeland sell kitchen items and I do not have my own kitchen.

Why are you doing this?

Sundae · 02-22-2012, 01:39 PM

Because I had an enforced day off of work today (48 quarantine due to vomiting virus) and it arrived in the post.

Basically, I was bored.

monster · 02-22-2012, 01:49 PM

I am unfamiliar with this concept. Couldn't you have had a nice day out? Gone for a swim? Met new people?
