I'm having one of those days in which I'm more goofy than usual. I'm not sure why I did what I just did, but it wound up have my coworker next to me laughing so hard he turned a deep red and started choking.

One of the admins comes into my shared office and starts going off on this that and nothing, basically wasting our time. Nothing special here. My impatience for this particual fellow is the stuff of legends, and everybody knows it. Well, he comes back in a few minutes later and says:

Him: "Hay Xolik did you know.."
Me: "There's a purple rabbit in the server room. Yes, I know. I've notified housekeeping."
Him: "What?"
Me: "The purple bunny behind the Unix racks, by the battery backup units. I know about it."
Him: "What are you talking about?"
Me: "There's a rabbit that looks like somebody dipped it in purple paint behind the Unix racks."
Him:"Is it still there?"
Me: "I don't know! I'm not going in there! That thing freaked me out!"
Him: "Ok...well <<blah blah blah>>" He then leaves.
Coworker next to me: "Oh, jeeze, he can't be that stupid..."
two minutes later, the guy comes back in.
Him: "Are you sure? I don't see it back there."
Coworker laughs and writes "Gullible is not in the dictonary" on the whiteboard over his desk.
Him:"...." storms out of the office.
Coworker: "buahahahahahahahaha"

Yes, one of our system administrators acutally belived there was a freaking purple rabbit in the server room.

Silly, any self respecting rabbit wouldn't wear purple in June.

Boy that dude is gullible! Why in the world would the rabbit ever hang around the unix racks with all the penguins?

Ok, here is what I really don't understand. The same guy tells me that I'm full of shit because I told him that an NT 4.0 Server CD that's bootable will allocate a max of 8GB disk space to a partition. So I bust out the NT 4.0 Server install CD, and show him the screen where it basically says "I can use up to 8GB for this partiton, shall I continue?" and he still doesn't believe me. So I ask him "Why is it that when I have the proof right in front of your own eyes, you won't belive me, but when I tell you there's a purple rabbit in the server room, you go hunting for it?" Jeeze, did he get pissed.

I had the oddest dream last night. I dreamt that I met a whole bunch of you all in real life. In an airport. It was strange...and this isn't the first time I've had this dream, either.

Were we trying to highjack planes?

What were you wearing?

Was Needles there?

Who had sex with the flight attendant first?

TheJudge · « **Reply #287 on:** June 29, 2005, 08:56:06 AM »

Did Demosthenes have hair?

No, he didn't. But he was a bit sunburned.

Nobody. We weren't on a plane, but in the waiting area where everybody has to sit.

He might have been. I remember Demo was there, Cat was there and you were there for sure. There were others too, but they came and went.

What an odd dream. I've had similar dreams, mostly involving the people I talk with in chat all day.

pbsaurus · « **Reply #290 on:** June 29, 2005, 08:27:10 PM »

Needles is always infiltrating my dreams.

That may not have been a dream if you were camping at the time.

scribcake · « **Reply #292 on:** June 29, 2005, 08:46:24 PM »

Was I there? Nah, I couldn't have been. I don't have you scheduled for another visit 'til next Thursday...

Crystalmonkey · « **Reply #293 on:** June 29, 2005, 09:59:59 PM »

What was I doing? (Assuming I was there...)

If it involves a gerbil and a tube...

I have just been informed by my boss that I am a huge smart-ass and apparently have been giving one of the other admins a hard time all week. He said he's never been more proud.

Demosthenes · « **Reply #295 on:** July 01, 2005, 09:33:21 AM »

You? A huge smart-ass?

NOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.......

They shouldn't call their business this if they don't sell them. And there was no need to be rude about it either. They've just lost a customer!

Demosthenes · « **Reply #298 on:** July 14, 2005, 06:22:27 PM »

On the subject of misconstrued names, did I ever tell you guys about that perfectly safe for work local site that gets filtered out by our firewall at work?

http://www.stcloudbuildersexchange.com

Way to pick a domain name, guys.
