Gen Z coworker keeps asking me things like “If Celine Dion ever goes on tour, would you go with me?” and “Cyndi Lauper is going on tour, will you go with me?” which to me suggests that she has thought to herself: “Who do I know that’s old?” and landed on me as the best person to invite.

Just misheard “I’m menopausal” as “I’m an apostle.” 🤦‍♀️

Δεῖ με λέγειν... Πτέρυγες ὄνομα ἔστι τῷ τόπῳ τινί πού πτέρυγας ἐσθίεις.
Οἱ συνεργαζόμενοι μου: Ἐρχόμεθα πρός τάς Πτέρυγας ἐσθίειν, ἐλθέ μετά ἡμῶν.

Ἐγώ: Ἆρα ἔχουσι τι δύναμαι ἐσθίειν;

Οἱ συνεργαζόμενοι μου: Ἀλλ' οὐκ ἐσθίεις. Πῑ́νεις.

Ἐποίησα τοῦτο τὸ πέμμα. Μῑσῶ σφόδρα γράφειν ἐπί τῶν πεμμάτων. Φεῦ.

Μηκέτι ἀρέσκει μοι τὸ ἔργον μου... κάμνω σφόδρα. Κάμνω, κάμνω, κάμνω. Ὡς ἔλεγε ὁ Ἰησοῦς, «ἕως πότε πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἔσομαι, ἕως πότε ἀνέξομαι ὑμῶν.»

Καθ' ημέραν, ἐπεὶ πρῶτον ἐγείρομαι, ἐθέλουσιν οἱ αἴλουροι μου ἐσθίειν. Εὐθύς οὖν χορτάζω αὐτούς. Ἀλλά οἱ δύο αἴλουροι μου οὐκ ὁμοίως ἐσθίουσιν. Εἷς τῶν αἰλούρων ταχέως ἐσθίει, ὁ δέ ἄλλος βραδέως λίαν. Διὰ τοῦτο, δεῖ με κωλύειν τὸν ταχέως ἐσθίοντα αἴλουρον ἐσθίειν τήν τοῦ ἄλλου αἰλούρου τροφήν.

Not to be dramatic, but if my workplace announced a promotion that would involve a full day of customers forcing me to listen to them play the recorder, I would quit on the spot.

Finally tried the Jacques Torres recipe. And it really is as good as everyone has always said.
