Bacteria That Can Eat Radioactive Waste Discovered

Wait, we're making containment walls ... for nuclear waste ... out of FOOD?

I know, I'm taking a factoid (something small that vaguely resembles a fact) and plowing it out of proportion. It's been one of those weeks where if I don't do SOMETHING crazy I'll end up going insane.

In that case...well done!!

Are you kidding, it was played at my cousin's wedding reception and we made a line dance out of it. Two lines, boys vs. girls. It was a blast, almost as much fun as the teenage makeout the song alludes to in the first movement and bridge.

(The 'baseball' section was just a general bobbing and swaying, with arms distance between the lines. We couldn't get too suggestive at that part, there were Catholic Grandmothers in the audience, nobody wanted this to be 'a wedding followed by a funeral.')

They also played Dead Man's Party at the reception, but it was played before the food was served, so we couldn't dance to it. But that's another story, and I think this has wandered far enough off topic for the OT flag.

At a company I worked at, at the Christmas party they had karaoke, the owners nephew who thought high of himself sang it..... And it sure seemed long to me. ;)

I'm a little confused at the sentence structure there.

Did you mean to say the owner's nephew thought highly of himself, or that you thought he was high when he was singing?

Your comment seems to work either way, and having met some 'owner's sons/nephews' both interpretations seem likely.

The owners nephew thought he was born with talent.

He also goes on vacation a lot, so others who actually earn a living fixes his phuq-ups. Which is fine, with him gone, he at least isn't doing any more damage.

Sounds like a classic 'highly-valued, know-nothing Heir Apparent' situation.

With luck you'll be on to another company or retired before he moves into a position where he can do some REAL damage.

I told the owner his nephew does not have his head in your business. The owner reminded me his nephew will soon be taking over the company. And I left when he did.

The owner had to come out of retirement because the customers were leaving.

That's a better outcome than I expected.

Most people don't survive retirement.

Ha,... Yes, he owes his nephew a lot...and his nephew has a job...... I guess it would be called.....Synergy

Yeah....

What else is there to say to that but Q.E.D.
