  3. The printer scene in Office Space was my inspiration. Mike Judge is my hero. My wife and I have decided that Idiocracy isn't a movie, it's a prophecy.

    However, I must say that prior to Office Space I did do something very similar to a modem...

  6. You should have carried the computer out there and made it watch. Show it what will happen if it messes up.

  7. It wasn't a scripted event, I promise. I've been having trouble with the this fax machine for a while, and today while trying to fax in a contract I tried literally a dozen times. I even moved it to another phone line. Line error, right?

    And on that last try, I just, well, snapped. I grabbed it, stormed out the front door and threw it on the driveway, with many shouted expletives. My truck happened to be parked there and the machine came to rest right behind the rear tire. Serendipity...

    I grabbed the keys, hopped in the truck and backed over the damn thing, with glee. Then I took a picture. Then I threw it in the trash. Then I noticed the neighbor watching me. We didn't speak...
