Eheheh... I love making my boss get all riled up about stupid crap. So I was wearing a camo bandana, camo pants and my boots (cuffs tucked into the boots all military-stylie) and I walk into work. My boss sees me, stops, inspects my outfit and the conversation goes as follows:
Boss: What the hell are you? In the army?
Me: Enh.
Boss: Because you look like you're in the army.
Me: Enh.
Boss: Why don't you join the army? It'd do you some good.
Me: I tried, they wouldn't let me.
Boss: Why the hell not?
Me: They said that even though my asthma is minor any presence of it is an immediate disqualification.
Boss: *walks off* grrrmumblemumblegr...
Similar questioning when I walked in there with a mohawk a while back.
Speaking of irritating bosses, my other boss (night shift manager, the previous one in question was the owner) kept finding things to bitch about what I was doing all night and I kept proving him wrong. He got very frustrated and eventually resorted to just random vulgar comments instead of fighting a losing battle. Earlier my other other boss (dayshift manager) kept talking shit about me, my mom, my pet, etc... and I just kept shrugging him off until he ran out of things to say about me.
I find it amusing how much power you can have over someone just by not letting them bug you. I also find it rather amusing how people think I'm going to get upset because they say something like "I fucked your mom in the butt last night! [Durr hurr hurr!]" Seriously. They're just words. Big fucking deal. If he actually tried to do such a thing my mom would probably spray a can of mace in his eyes and kick him in the nuts, and I'd be damn proud of her for it. In the present reality, however, the words mean nothing. Why should I get offended over nothing? I know people that get violent over simple "yo mamma" jokes, and I can guarantee that, given we both live long enough to die of old age, I'd live longer just because I don't get stressed over stupid shit.
Oh, and btw, Zelda for N64 is awesome. I haven't played it for a few years, but I uncovered it while sorting through my games looking for ones I didn't want anymore to trade in. Needless to say that wasn't one of the ones I traded. Seriously, that game is just as entertaining now as it was when I got it (although less challenging because I know it almost inside and out, not to mention have much greater "m4d sk1llz" now).
Was going to trade stuff in for Katamari Damacy, but that game seems to be ridiculously popular... no new OR used copies at any of the stores I checked, or the other nearby stores of the same chains. In place of it, I now finally own Goldeneye 007, which I never have before (despite having played it enough to completely own at it), and the first two GTAs for PS2, which I've surprisingly never played before.
Blah... hooray for long rambling journal entries because I'm bored and it's 2AM but I don't feel like sleeping.
