Usually my coworkers and I are too busy at the office to use IM for anything non-work-related, but occasionally it serves as a virtual water cooler, like yesterday.
matt: how was your date
matt: is that why you were late
jay: no, i had a doctor's appointment this morning.
matt: was the doc appt related to the date?
jay: i wish.
carlin: there's a male morning after pill now?
matt: it seeks out and destroys your sperm wherever it happens to be
carlin: it's a homing and killing device.
jay: yeah. the guy takes the pill, the woman's pregnancy terminates.
jay: does your sperm have to be pre-installed with self-destruct devices?
matt: no the spewed sperm are quantum-entangled with your remaining sperm. it reads those.
carlin: bingo
jay: "quantum entangled" - i'm not familiar with that term.
matt: simple physics.
jay: yeah, sounds real simple
matt: collapse of the wave function, etc.
carlin: it's a sperm, it's a particle...
matt: it's a spermicle
matt: we should do a charticle on spermicles
jay: and how does it work? the man swallows a pill?
carlin: it's a spermcicle
carlin: yum
jay: or he goes to the window and releases it?
matt: he jacks off into a black box
matt: with a cat in it
EPILOGUE
Jay laughs so loudly at this that another coworker asks Jay to share with the group.
jay: what should i say?
matt: MAKE SOMETHING UP
jay: give me something!
Carlin distracts the coworker with a question about the flowers on her desk.
carlin: drop it
matt: um, tell her you found a picture of a monkey that looks like a dog
jay: should i seriously forward that to her?
carlin: no drop it!!!!
matt: looks like she's over it
jay: ok. thanks. nice work, carlin.
