Joking around at work

[socksoff]

I have the benefit of working at a place where,to combat tension and panic,we get to joke around reciting famous lines from The Simpsons,Family Guy,South Park,Flintsones,and old Warner Brothers Cartoons.
It also pays off well if the people you work with have the same passionate interest for great cartoon humor.
I can do a great -Cartmen "Respect my Authoritaaa!!!!!" ,Stewy's (Family Guy) "What the Deuce!!?"
We also act out alittle.When someone mentions Chris Griffin's Evil Monkey living in his closet,several people including myself do the wicked stare and point an index finger at each other.
We sometimes get laughing so hard that we loose track of the work and have to gain control back, as it were.
Yesterday,I introduced Friskey the pup (Warner Brothers),who goes around sneaking up on Claude the Cat and barking madly,which results in the cat stuck upside down on the ceiling.I can do a very good high pitched Frisky bark!
Then there's the Flinstone Song "Happy Anniversary" which I and others sing.I use full body mannerisms I learned from watching thatepisode hundreds of times.(You have to keep your eyes closed and lift you head up when you sing the "Haaaappy Anniversay" part of the song!

Sorry if this thread has no real purpose.I just had a free moment to write something.

I personally think it's great to work in an environment where you laugh each and every day. I appreciate where I am now, especially having been in environments where the only thing you had to experience was fear itself, or you had to experience being around people just one or two thin rungs above mental retardation, morons who sat there and snort-laughed at their own jokes and talked about nothing all day but stupid crap, when they weren't rifling through your desk drawers looking for something to eat or steal, or you had to put up with supervisors who would tell you to stop talking and stop looking around and stop chewing gum, no matter how old you are.

Where I am now, I laugh every day, and when I'm not laughing, I'm making others laugh. It's a great feeling...
