Are they the type of children who respond well to subliminal terror? It might be worth a shot at least, for the humor if nothing else.

Biopsy results came back. Cyst was a cyst and not anything major. Been diagnosed with Steatocystoma multiplex. Autosomal dominant condition. Nothing serious, but I cannot do a damned thing about it.

For someone who enjoys living in peace and quiet? They are pretty terrible. They are loud. They wake up at 6 am and immediately begin running and screaming all over the house. They require constant attention. I can never sleep. They come into my room when I am trying to sleep and giggle and laugh and poke at me to wake me up so I will come and play with them. The only thing the TV is allowed to show is freaking Spongebob or Toy Story, because if anyone tries to watch something else they throw a freaking fit.

Also, they are slobs. So is my sister though, so that's mostly learned behavior.

I am looking forward to moving into my own apartment where I can sleep past 7am.

I was going to make a joke about how procreation should not be in your planned future... but then I actually used my brain.

So... with that in mind... ADOPTION should not be in your planned future.

Hide your shoes. That is all.

I like Mafia style education. Remember that Seinfeld routine? You find what the kid likes the most then tell them "I see you are very fond of this teddy bear. It would be very unfortunate if something happened to it..." Or simply tearing the bear's head off and leave it by the kid's bed so they saw it when they woke up.

Things like that.

Looks like you have a lot of nice stuff in here...

It would be a shame if something were to happen to any of it.
Perhaps I could interest you in some "Oops Insurance"

Re: Official Bored at Work / Off-Topic Chat Thread II

So, a month ago, I get a call from my home phone. As soon as I picked it up, an old ladies voice starts asking "Mark? Mark? Okay, this is getting out of hand, Mark. *something else I couldn't hear*" I'm not sure why I was immediately disturbed upon picking up this call... something about her voice sounded unnatural, as if it were prerecorded. I proceeded to tell her it was a wrong number; she still questions me otherwise. After some time, I hang up.

She calls again. I pick it up and assure her it's the wrong number. She acknowledges this. I hang up.

She calls again, and again. I ignore it.

This was a month ago. Within that time frame, possibly once or twice a week: she continues to call, asking for Mark in that very same tone of voice.

My sister and I have theorized either this old lady is on meds who has a memory relapse every week and somehow has access to a phone, or she's a ghost - forever in limbo, calling for this person in that frail, monotone voice "Mark? Mark"?

I am seriously considering it is the latter. She just called three minutes ago, it is 12AM, and it is raining and thundering outside.

I'm scared.

I think I read a story like that once...

You really don't want to know how it ends. <_<;

Lol creepy.

Straight up, for all the extra work I do at my job, I do enjoy it so I don't mind going in at all. I was being lazy as fuck this afternoon though.

Nadito, don't you have caller ID?

If you do, give the number a call back, if not, try to trace the call.

If the second option holds up to be true, then I honestly have no idea.

I'm just glad I haven't gotten any of those phone calls with heavy breathing... -Shudders.-

Mark?

If you do, the ghost will kill you.
