Back in the day he Army ID card issued to enlisted personnel just said "Man" on it (doubt they do anymore though) instead of any rank. Warrant officers and up said "NCO" and Commissioned Officers said "Off". When I took my commision I had to go to the local Military Police office and get the updated ID done. They took great joy in announcing that I was there to turn in my Man card!

Belt out an nsync song in an full elevator. Or work in references to how cute your dog/cat is in work emails.

Like I said, more creative ways

Of course I also was practicing 'social distancing' before it was cool, so YMVV.

My adorable cat is already a regular feature in my daily work meetings.

So, obsessively posting Sailor Moon videos is OK now?

Sorry, I’m afraid my wording may have given you guys the wrong idea.

I’ve been having sex with Backstreet Boys.

Just so we’re clear.

Possibly... you decide. There is a tree near our property line that has been there for 20 years. We both have patios and pools... 90+ percent of the tree would be on our property, and overhangs our patio and pool. He has trimmed the tree so that none of it overhangs his property (it is a straight vertical cut) as is his right.

He is complaining that (literally) six berries have been blown on his property (they are not berries, but that is what he calls them). He is convinced that they will damage his pool and stain his concrete (even though they have not been an issue for the last 20 years and have never stained our pool or concrete). He is demanding that no leaves or berries enter his property.

I have told him this is impossible short of removal of the tree, which is not happening. He hired a tree trimmer and threatened them that he would call immigration on them when they refused to trim on our side of the property line. He grabbed their tools and attempted to cut our tree. The tree trimmers have offered to testify if we want to sue.. (I do not).

I truly believe that work from home has driven this guy over the edge... I now get multi paragraph diatribes via text from him. He was always an idiot, but I believe he has transitioned into being a full fledged jerk.

I would get some bags of cherries and plums, and anything else I could find extra ripe, and through them over the fence in the middle of the night. Put them in your yard too then say, "wtf dude?"

TIL that I write REALLY long DIY tutorials.

The good thing is that nobody has ever accused me of half-assing anything I've done when it involves play.
