The Office Rat

Are
you The Office Rat? Are you a sniveling, backstabbing, highly unlikable creep
who tells on everyone? Are you a double-crossing Judas fink? Do you make all
those around you ill? Are you such a stool pigeon of a snitch that sometimes
you even make yourself sick?
Here’s
a fact; it turns out that every office has an office rat. You know him/her,
they’re the slime buckets that call your superiors if your five minutes
late. The douche bags that count your pencils when you’re not at your desk
to see if your stealing and, ultimately, the pathetic saps and losers who
don’t have anything else going on in their lives and get a huge sense of
self importance by jamming their slimy noses into your affairs.
If you’re at work and reading this right now, chances are that the office
rat is watching you and writing this all up in an officious and anal report.
Take the test and see if you’re a duplicitous tattle-telling worm.
1.
How often do you rat out fellow employees for being late? Even if it’s just
a minute. Give yourself 1 point for occasionally. 2 points for often. 3 points
for “It’s what I live for and it makes me feel like a big shot.”
2. Does this definition describe you? “You are a long-tailed
rodent resembling a mouse but larger.” If so, add 10
points.
3. Are you slimy? If so, how slimy are you?
1 point for pretty slimy. 2 points for “I’ve been described as
oily.” 3 points for “I leave a trail of ooze behind me wherever I go.”
4. What have you ratted your fellow workers out for recently? 1 point for
arriving late. 2 points for chewing on their pencils. 3 points for suspected
terrorist.
5. For every time you've said the following phrases in the last week, give
yourself another point:
"Hi boss, I know who it was who ate that donut.”
”I’m telling!”
”Boss, it’s me, listen, Jones has gone to the bathroom three times today.
I think he might be masturbating in there. Would you like me to check?”
6. Give yourself 1 point for each of the following statements that have
been said to you by fellow workers. “You sicken me.” “I hope you die a
painful death and that it happens soon and that I’m there to witness it.”
“Did your mother drop you on your head as a child?” “I’m gonna kick
your tattle-telling ass, loser!” “Thanks for telling the boss I was on a
personal call. Oh, by the way, there’s a reason your coffee tastes like
urine.”
Now add them up and see what kind of rat you really are.
20 points or more – You’re a slimy, particleboard chewing, long
tailed rodent as well as a despicable person. You’re a plague
in so many ways and we hope you drown in a toilet. Until then, scurry back to
the sewer.
10-19 points – You're pretty
horrid. You should start minding your own business. You’re closer to being
loathsome than you are tolerable. Smarten up and shut up.
1-09 points – You’re kind of rotten but you’re close to being
salvageable. Focus on yourself and keep your tattletale telling mouth shut.
No points – You’re not a rat, in fact, in this area, you shine as a
human being. Congratulations.

I’m happy. If anyone asks, you tell them that. Tell them I’m happy. Happy,
happy, happy.
I’m so happy I wrote an album called “Happiness”
Look at me. Don’t I just look thrilled with everything around me? All those
plants. And flowers. And my guitar. And my very existence... Yeah, life is
good. Wow. I guess I have it all. I guess...
I recorded this album by myself. I wrote all the songs, without other people.
I don’t need other people. Except for my mom, who dresses me. And feeds me.
And bought my glasses. And took the picture of me.
My album is called “Happiness with Ron
Johnson.” I’m Ron Johnson.
Some call me “the desiccated coconut.” And then they laugh.
Me, well, I’m in my mid 40’s, single, balding, and ready to share my brand
of “Happiness” with the world.
Happy, happy, happy...

Tom Cruise: Day 8 Without His Brain
Master thespian, Tommy
Cruiser has been 8 days without a brain and according to Tom, he’s never
been happier.
”Who needs a brain?” Asked the diminutive thespian, “I live in
Hollywood. Craniums aren’t required. Sure, I could while away the hours,
conferring with the flowers and consulting with the rain. But why bother?
Because without
my brain, I have achieved spiritual clarity... Why is the ocean near the
shore? It is and shall be. And anyway, a brain is just a portion of the
vertebrate’s central nervous system. Sure, some say may say it’s the
primary center for the regulation and control of bodily activities, but those
people are brainless, sorry, brain-filled morons. I say “no” to sensory
impulses. “No” to gray matter that transmits information to the body
organs. And “no” to consciousness, thought, memory, and emotion. As a
Buddhist, I now see that a brain is a materialistic good: And those can only
bring people unhappiness. I am much happier without my brain. You should all
get lobotomies and experience what I do.”
Mr. Cruise then smiled vacantly, scratched himself and wandered off.
