You're off in fifteen minutes, so of course you're finding ways to fuck around and make yourself scarce instead of &bJust Go Face Shelves For Like Ten Minutes And Oh Don't Forget To Clock Out First Please.&c)<br><br>&YSo like... (He stops, actually thinking now; you can see his reflexive annoyance deepen into a more considered and indignant revulsion in real-time as he talks.)<br><br>So like what kind of a fuckin weirdo... &W*snort-laugh* &Ylike what kind of a fuckin' weirdo opens a soda, drinks like HALF... like not even HALF of it, you know? And then he takes the REST of it, and like puts the rest of it in the fuckin' FRIDGE? Like I dunno, do you LIKE that it tastes like the fuckin' baking soda in the back of the fridge now?<br>(He finishes unwrapping the Hot Pocket <br>And he gets so PISSED if he thinks someone like moved it, or threw it away, and it's like dude, YOU FORGOT where you put your soda, ok? Which is weird, because it's only ever on the counter under the microwave, or it's... &C(pointing) yep! There it fuckin' is! In the fuckin' fridge! Fuckin' weirdo.<br><br><br><br>Actually, you know what? I'm actually pissed about this! If you can't finish a whole fuckin' soda in the time it takes to get fuckin' warm, how about you pour half into a cup, bring it to someone and make a fuckin' friend instead of putting half of it in the fridge to fuckin' get flat!! Like for real, if Tony walked up to me, once-a-fuckin'-day with a li'l Dixie cup full of Diet Coke, I'd like that dude way more! I'm dead serious! And and it's not because I like Diet Coke! I hate fuckin' Diet Coke, it's just that if he did that, then I'd know there was no chance I was gonna get yelled at for throwing away his goddamn flat soda because I thought it was fuckin' GARBAGE!
