I have been asked to remove the "hostile" display on top of my monitor.

lmao
i think that instead of removing them you should knock them all down, cut their heads off and smother them in 'blood' from a sachet of ketchup and protest that ordering them removed meant they had to be culled. |

I agree - with Kris. What asshats. Also, doing something like that would make asshat co-workers less likely to mess with you or complain about you in the future. ![]() _____________________

Oooh the blood is a nice touch! I was thinking of making a statement by cutting off their little legs and leaving them in a pile on my supervisor's desk, along with a note explaining how they are "crippling" my creativity, and I cannot be expected to work under such circumstances. |

I think you should replace it with a display of a toy robot genuflecting to a plastic mushroom.

Things you can do to get back at them:
Sing the Badger theme incessantly. (I do this and now I have another nutty co-worker doing it, he walks by my cube singing Badger, Badger and I holler "Snake, Snake". Drives my boss apeshit. )Invent nonsense computer jargon in conversations, and see if people play along to avoid the appearance of ignorance. (I've done this with cryptography in meetings - it's such a hoot to see them act like they know just what your talking about.) Make up nicknames for all your coworkers and refer to them only by these names. "That's a good point, Sparky." "No I'm sorry I'm going to have to disagree with you there, Chachi." Send email to the rest of the company telling them what you're doing. For example "If anyone needs me, I'll be in the bathroom." "Hi-lite" your shoes. Tell people that you haven't lost your shoes since you did this. While sitting at your desk, soak your fingers in "Palmolive." Put up mosquito netting around your cubicle and play jungle music all day. Put a chair facing a printer, sit there all day and tell people you're waiting for your document. Arrive at a meeting late, say you're sorry, but you didn't have time for lunch, and you're going to be nibbling during the meeting. During the meeting eat 5 entire raw potatoes. Insist that your e-mail address be "zena_hosequeen_of_fire@companyname.com". Every time someone asks you to do something, ask them if they want fries with that. Send email to yourself engaging yourself in an intelligent debate about the direction of one of your company's products. Forward the mail to a co-worker and ask her to settle the disagreement. Encourage your colleagues to join you in a little badger dancing. Put your garbage can on your desk. Label it "IN." Determine how many cups of coffee is "too many." Develop an unnatural fear of staplers. Decorate your office with pictures of Cindy Brady and Danny Partridge. Try to pass them off as your children. For a relaxing break, get away from it all with a mask and snorkel in the fish tank. If no one notices, take out your snorkel and see how many you can catch in your mouth. Send e-mail messages saying free pizza, free donuts etc... in the lunchroom, when people complain that there was none... Just lean back, pat your stomach, and say, "Oh you've got to be faster than that." Put decaf in the coffeemaker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has gotten over their caffeine addictions, switch to espresso. Do not add any inflection to the end of your sentences, producing awkward silences with the impression that you'll be saying more any moment. (Always a winner for a laugh) Wear a puppet on your hand and talk to co-workers through it. (I actually do this) ![]() _____________________

LMAO HQ BRILLIANT! What the hell is up your co-workers' asses? That's the cutest thing EVAR. Least the chick isn't like mangled into pieces with just a toe left twitching. Maybe scribble a big smile on its beak to show everyone, hey, it likes it! LOL I love it.

Peeps are best frozen. Hard & chewy yet still fresh.

Oh Rose those are great! I love this one:
Do not add any inflection to the end of your sentences, producing awkward silences with the impression that you'll be saying more any moment. Yesterday I drew a happy face on my finger, and told my co-worker that "Wayne" would be accompanying me to all future meetings - I think the chick incident is just retaliation. Or maybe I just need to grow up ![]() |

Try mixing that Erektus with a 69. It works nicely.
