What You are Really Saying: When You're on the Phone With Your Parents

by corey on

What you Say: “Oh, hey dad. Not much just got out of class.”

What You Mean: –
“Oh, hey dad. Not much, my 3 o’clock probably just got out, but I’ve actually been playing Saints Row for the last 4 hours.” “Class is good. We just watched this really interesting documentary on Global Warming” - “I don’t know the real name of the class I missed. Parental control is my favorite TV show right now, a 4 block episode is about to start.” “I’ve been budgeting well, and keeping a close eye on my checking account,” - “I bought Wendy’s for lunch, and biggie-sized it with that money you gave me for the water bill” “I think were gonna’ take it easy tonight, maybe check out a party, see if anything is going on” - “I’m actually kind of drunk right now, I’m going out and probably won’t be home until 4, but won’t remember anything beyond 1:45” “No, there’s no special girls out there right now” - “I had unprotected sex last night” “I applied for a job at Applebee’s today” - “There’s an Applebee’s commercial on right now” “All right, well I’ve got a little bit of work to take care of, but I’ll see ya guys in a few weeks, love ya!” - “All right, I need to find my other shoe I’m planning on leaving the house for the first time today, get ready to fork over some cash in two weeks, love ya!”

Passwords

I work in IT for a fairly well known company, but I work for one of the smaller branches. It's just me and one other person and let me just say, he isn't the brightest bulb. We are suppose to change the passwords to the computers every three months, and I was going to be gone on the day that we were suppose to do it. I wrote down the list of passwords that he needed to... Read More » change it to in an Excel doc and told him that he needed change them before he left on Friday, but after everyone is gone for the weekend. Monday I get back and everyone is asking me why they cannot get onto their computer. It turns out the guy didn't like the passwords I had created and made up his own, and then forgot what they were.
