Penny Arcade: The Series Episode 15 - The Expansion
How often is Jerry over in the new office, then? I was listening to a stream from Scott last week, and Jerry just popped in and talked to them like he always does. It totally felt like the old office, I couldn't tell the difference.
Yeah for a moment there I thought it might involve a drive of some sort with the reference to "PA East" but if it's right across the hall then that doesn't seem so bad.
I totally get the notion of being quieter and fewer distractions. I went from 8 years in a marketing department in an office to telecommuting from my own home office and the reduction of noise and "traffic" made me so much more efficient it wasn't even funny.
So.... Khoo, when do we get the episode about the new Child's Play Employee Hiring Process?
Make sure you put a projection of the website up, give them a sharpie, and ask them in your serious voice "What is wrong with this website?"

Yesssssssss
They have already been introduced to SE++.
At their next job interview, they're asked to answer extremely difficult questions while sitting in a sweltering room with coked up ferrets in their pants. They just shrug and say "I've done worse."
Came here for the Tube picture, leaving satisfied.
Also it is cool how they never show that the new rooms are still in the same place as the old rooms. Dudes are talking like its so different not having them right there when they are across the hall.
I kept thinking that Kurtz was saying "Khartoum Mecca." And I'm like, Khartoum and Mecca are on different continents!

Anyways, this was a good episode.
“I’m the next president,” Greene said. “I’ll be 35 … just before November, so I was born to be president. I’m the man. I’m the man. I’m the man. Greene’s the man. I’m the man. I’m the greatest person ever. I was born to be president. I’m the man, I’m the greatest individual ever.”
So that picture on Robert's desk was taken in 2008, and I visit every year for PAX. Last time I was in Khoo's office he goes "man, looking at this picture is weird because you look way better now". I was all like
"oh thanks Robert that's really-"
"I mean, you look like shit in this picture"
"...nice of you"
"I mean wow do you look terrible in this picture, you look like a lobster's asshole"
"I... that's... I got a haircut so"
"hold on let me get Erik. Erik, can you come in here?"
"Hey guys what's going on"
"Hey tell Patrick how he looks like shit in this picture"
"Oh you do, it's awful. You look like you just got off a disappointing ghost train. I mean it's better now obviously"
"Th-thanks Erik"
"Yeah Erik is right dude, in this photo you look like you're haunting your own murderer."
Then I went and ate a cake. True story. Hardly any embellishment at all. I'm pretty sure if it hadn't been the weekend he would have gotten the whole staff to weigh in on the wretchedness of my appearance.
If you'd like an anime thread, please PM me to discuss it. Include pics/video of your favorites.

Maybe have a pow wow with everyone in about a month's time or something.
Having worked in an office environment, when you split people up like this, it does cause a bit of a disconnect in certain cases.

There are little kiss marks on it.

No, that's probably not true.
He seems way too nice.
Now see, if we were talking about Tube, I'd believe it.
But not Robert.
I'm looking for PAX Badges! Please PM me if you have a Four Day, or any Single Day Badges to spare!
I knew I wasn't going mental, and that that was Tube.
This was an enjoyable episode!
and are behaving ever so nicely!
Yeah what is the scoop with that? Good choice of libations though.

nice.
Erik is Alphamonkey right? Go alpha.
At least it was concering the wretchedness of your former appearance and not your present appearance.
But in comparison he used to look like poop.
