    That too, but unfortunately the boss would be the main suspect. :D

    It was @Jenissej in the bureau with the radio. :p (or perhaps headphones if you really wanted to make a point)

    I've decided that when he arrives at work tomorrow, I'll tell him right then before he even touches the radio. Like, look, I've been patient so far. Not anymore.

    Maybe I'll also utilize this nice bit of wisdom I learned today: "The good thing about being threatened with a gun is, you haven't been shot yet."

    Garrotting someone with headphone cables? That's kinda stylish.

    As a side note...isn't garrotted a lovely word? :D

    Think I may have to write something including this now.

    And somehow I feel less bad about having a sadistic character in my
    story, cause at least nobody gets garroted in it. :p

    This raises the question - why not?

    @Jenissej I don't think it would suit his particular WIP.
    That said @Cave Troll , for your next work...perhaps a sadistic serial murderer? ;)
    If you don't fancy that, I might. :D

    It’s more interesting than some questions I’ve been asked on dates.

    A. You take a 12v motorcycle battery, a High Voltage coil, and a directional antenna. Assemble them according to instructions on the inetrnet (so I can't be blamed), then just aim your EMP gun at the offender and click the trigger until the device smokes, or the offender has a stroke!
    B. Have a nice day. :D

    I am glad all of that is behind me now. Maybe on the next one if I go that route
    to just elope. (Saves on cash that way.) :)

    Wedding planning is easy. Follow these steps:

    1. Obtain a fiance fiancee victim.
    2. Order pizza.
    3. Do NOT bring your gun.
    4. Say "I do."
    5. Kiss the victim.

    Aaaand you're done. Oh, you might want to sign a paper in front of a judge or a notary or a meteorologist or a Hooters waitress or maybe an official midget, or whoever makes it all legal. But that's pretty much all there is to it.

    #3 doesn't work in the deep south where Shotgun Weddings are a thing (still)?

    A family was parked outside the train station this morning with their kids in the back. The children were belting out “Daydream Believer” at the tops of their voices in shrill cockney accents. What a day to leave the Laser Cannon at home.
