Today's Random Work Event

[chaosvizier]

Upon seeing Drew Barrymore up close and personal, I can now say two things:

A) She's shorter than she looks on screen. Except in ET and Firestarter, where she was much shorter.

B) I think I could kick her ass.

I think B) a lot when I see people. I must have some pent up anger issues or such. I thought the same thing when Bill Gates passed by. But that was really motivated by my desire to snag the $100000 worth of spare change he probably had sitting in his pocket for emergency use.

Okay, granted, I didn't think B) when I met Colin Powell. The man's tough. I won't dog the main man Powell.

No, not really; she waved and said hello to everyone in the office, but not anything special. It's not like I have a date or anything.

Who knows why I think about ass-kicking? Must be my inner violent child coming through. Heh. I wouldn't, really. She's hot. Mmmmmmmm...

it's a martial arts thing...usually when I meet someone the first time...I size them up out of habit and when I'm talking to people I can't help but notice openings and weaknesses...so nah, I don't think it's an anger issue...the fact that you wanted to beat drew barrymore is prolly more of a, I wanna get all hot and sweaty with you babe...ha ha...you should have asked her about the hot monkey love :P

Yeah, instinctive sizing up of people does happen a lot. I do it at work all the time. Security guards, dignitaries, whatever. Just force of habit.

Once the President of Azerbaijan was visiting, and his motorcade pulled up, and all these heavily armed guys jumped out and took up stations around the area. The Deputy Head of our office and I are watching this- he's from Ukraine- and he says something in Russian and then tells me "These are Russian special forces. Spetznatz. I do not think even you could challenge them."

Once in a while, he frightens me. I know he's KGB. No doubt about it.

hm. i wonder if she's hot because she's hot anyway or mostly because she gets hyped up so much and has such massive coverage all the time. there are some rather hot girls around who don't get anywhere near as much attention..

tho i guess that depends. how much attention do your lovely flatmates get again? :D
