[IDBUG]

sorry, I just can't come up with any interesting questions right now

1. If you could choose your work environment, what would it be?


2. Paper or plastic?


3. Hot or not: 1pm in July in Phoenix? (haha)
ok, real question #3:

3. Hot or not: Man Purses (ganley.org/bags/bags.html)


4. Charmin or Quilted Northern?


5. Do you ever forward chain letters? (esp. internet ones)

1. If you could choose your work environment, what would it be?

The beach...or a bar.


2. Paper or plastic?

Plastic.


3. Hot or not: 1pm in July in Phoenix? (haha)
ok, real question #3:

3. Hot or not: Man Purses (http://ganley.org/bags/bags.html)

Not so much.


4. Charmin or Quilted Northern?

Charmin.


5. Do you ever forward chain letters? (esp. internet ones)

No and I get really annoyed at people that believe everything they read over email and forward them on.

1. If you could choose your work environment, what would it be?
In bug-less woods. I know there is no such thing, but I can dream...

2. Paper or plastic?
Plastic, I know it's bad, but it's so much easier.


3. Hot or not: Man Purses (ganley.org/bags/bags.html)
I'm going to say hot, just because men should be able to carry all their crap around too.


4. Charmin or Quilted Northern?
Charmin, QN is linty.


5. Do you ever forward chain letters? (esp. internet ones)
No, I've only gotten one, and I ignored it.

[IDBUG]

blah blah blah blah

1. If you could choose your work environment, what would it be?
I think I have to go with Kata on the beach answer. But then go somewhere green sometimes, too. Maybe working in the zoo would be fun? (but as a vet or something, not a poop cleaner...)

2. Paper or plastic?
You know, there was this whole thing back when plastic bags came out, that they were so much more environmentally friendly, wouldn't kill trees, photodegradable etc. Now we never hear about that, and it's nearly impossible to find places to recycle them, and the stupid things fall apart as soon as anything goes into them (except Target bags, those are mostly ok). But what happened to all these great advantages they were supposed to have over paper?

Oh, but I use plastic too. And they have taken over a corner of my garage. I just wanted to rant a little. "The man" got one over on us with the plastic bags.

3. Hot or not: Man Purses (http://ganley.org/bags/bags.html)
Eh, whatever. There is nothing wrong with a guy carrying a bag.

I don't think they're "hot" or anything, don't really have an opinion on the matter. But it's such a funny phrase: "Man purses." Plus all the websites that come up on a google search. People are up in arms. Besides, I always thought they got around that whole purse thing by using backpacks (or "fanny packs" LMAO).

I was hoping some guys would answer this one. Where are you guys?

4. Charmin or Quilted Northern?
Charmin always clogs the plumbing in my house. So I buy anything else.

5. Do you ever forward chain letters? (esp. internet ones)
I work with a lot of people from other places, and their cultures and attitudes are a little different. I tend to get a lot of extended presentations (.pps files) with puppies and kittens and luck messages etc. And of course they forward them on, saying you'll have "good luck" etc. Sometimes I am feeling in need of a little luck, so I send them. I'm sorry.

But I refuse to send the sob stories and other assorted stuff. The presentations are ok, but I draw the line at fake kids who are fighting in iraq and have cancer (you know the ones I mean).

[Kata6]

For the record, I don't mind getting the ones with puppies or kittens or crazy pictures of this or that, the ones that piss me off are the ones people try to pass off as true, like:

Send this to 25 people and Bill Gates will send you 1000 bucks, or
Guy passed out at a party and someone removed his kidneys, be careful this could happen to you, it happens all the time, or
If you don't send this to 300 people in the next 30 seconds you'll live a long horrible lonely life, or
Be careful while you're getting gas because someone could hop in the backseat of your car and kill you, I know because it happened to a friend of mine...blah blah blah.

The saddest part is I know people who believe all this stuff. (seriously, if people all over the place were getting their kidneys removed at parties, don't you think we'd read about it in the news??)

I have a cousin that forwards just about everything she gets. And, she forwards this crap as attachments (within attachments within attachments...). It's just asking for a virus to view any of those things when they're sent that way. I have a feeling her computer is mega infected.

But yeah, it's exactly those kind of messages that drive me nuts, Kata.

[Kata6]

I got this email today, it seemed kind of fitting in this situation...


I must send my thanks to whoever sent me the one about rat poop in the glue on envelopes because I now have to use a wet towel with every envelope that needs sealing.

Also, now I have to scrub the top of every can I open for the same
reason.

I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl (Penny
Brown) who is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time.

I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive
the
$15,000 that Bill Gates/Microsoft and AOL are sending me for
participating
in their special e-mail program.

I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking
out
for me, and St. Theresa's novena has granted my every wish.

I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible
mutant
freaks with no eyes or feathers.

I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a
water
buffalo on a hot day.

Thanks to you, I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I
forward an email to seven of my friends and make a wish within five
minutes.

Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can
remove
toilet stains.

I no longer can buy gasoline without taking a man along to watch the
car
so a serial killer won't crawl in my back seat when I'm pumping gas.

I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr. Pepper since the people who make these
products are atheists who refuse to put "Under God" on their cans.

I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.

And thanks for letting me know I can't boil a cup water in the
microwave
anymore because it will blow up in my face...disfiguring me for life.

I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be
pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.

I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a
perfume sample and rob me.

I no longer receive packages from UPS or FedEx since they are
actually Al
Qaeda in disguise.

I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don't support
our
American troops or the Salvation Army.

I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a
number
for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda,
Singapore, and Uzbekistan.

I no longer have any sneakers -- but that will change once I receive
my
free replacement pair from Nike.

I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have
their recipe.

Thanks to you, I can't use anyone's toilet but mine because a big
brown
African spider is lurking under the seat to cause me instant death
when it
bites my butt.

Thank you too for all the endless advice Andy Rooney has given us. I
can
live a better life now because he's told us how to fix everything.

And thanks to your great advice, I can't ever pick up $5.00 I
dropped in
the parking lot because it probably was placed there by a sex molester
waiting underneath my car to grab my leg.Oh, and don't forget this one
either!

I can no longer drive my car because I can't buy gas from certain
gas
companies!

If you don't send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next
70
minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 PM
this
afternoon and the fleas from 12 camels will infest your back, causing
you
to grow a hairy hump. I know this will occur because it actually
happened
to a friend of my next door neighbor's ex-mother-in-law's second
husband's
cousin's beautician...
Have a wonderful day....

[IDBUG]

Hahahaha, I LOVE that one! I think I might just send that to people. Thanks for posting it!

1. If you could choose your work environment, what would it be?
Secluded and human free.


2. Paper or plastic?
Depends on if I'm in the hippie health food store. Don't wanna get dirty looks from people that wear birkenstocks.


3. Hot or not: Man Purses (http://ganley.org/bags/bags.html)
I once dated a guy who wore one and it was the anti-hot.


4. Charmin or Quilted Northern?
Quilted Northern because I don't like the whole "bear shitting in the woods" implication of the Charmin commercials. Little quilting ladies however...


5. Do you ever forward chain letters? (esp. internet ones)
Not ever.

[christinev]

Speaking of the chain letter crap, I never forward the crap even if it's some heart felt serious crap. If someone emails ME, the I email back, pretty simple. And for all the practical advice that is flying in my face, I'm way better off without it! Here's what I think, even breathing gives you cancer, so I just plain use my brain rather than freaking out about the needle in the gas pump handle or whatever.
1)I would work in another dimension

2)Plastic to double wrap poopy diapers-hopefuly that will be a thing of the past

3)I think it's cute if a man is carrying his wife/girlfriend's girly looking purse for her-NOW THAT"S A MAN! Real men carrying a purse, sure why not-let a man do as he pleases.

4) I only buy Quilted Northern

5)NEVER!!!!!
