Crayons!
At work, we get a daily On-this-date-in-history "fun" facts e-mail. Yesterday's claimed that the first rollerskating rink opened in London in 1375. My co-workers and I were very suspicious of this.
Me: They weren't rollerskating in the middle ages.
C-W #1: They didn't even have disco.
C-W #2: Maybe they needed a diversion from the black plague
Me: *thoughts floating away from the drudgery of work, and into happy la-la wrestling fandom land* The Black Plague would be an AWESOME name for heel stable. Snitzky could have a Typhoid Mary gimmick. "It's not *coughcoughspraygerms* my fault!... but who would they feud with? Who? Does anyone have a doct--- oh, wait! Lashley, SuperCrazy, Tantanka, M. Hardy-- Faces, all-- all out with odd illnesses. Co-incidence? I think not. I'm so brilliant. ZMOG! WWE NEEDS me.
Imagine how well that interview would go.
Steph: So, you blog?
Me: Yes.
Steph: What size would you say I wear?
Me: *Damn it*12 Si--four... I mean, two. Two! Man, you sure lost your baby weight fast.
Steph: What baby weight?
Me: Uh, exactly. Hey, did you know the first rollerskating rink was built in 1375?
Steph: What great topical subject matter. That needs to go in tonight's show. *speaks into intercom* Writer Monkeys! Add some edgy rollerskating jokes to DX's promo.
Me: Wow. An intercom. I didn't think those things existed anymore. I thought they were a detail of hack writers, you know, like writers to lazy too consider what a modern office might have in it, and instead just re-use
description gleaned from 25-year-old episodes of the Bob Newhart show.
Steph: This interview is over
Me: *Cries* Can I at least go watch Matt Hardy shower for awhile?
Steph: Why would Matt Hardy be showering at Titan Towers?
Me: Why are there Jericho standees outside of your office?
Steph: Out!
