For My 1,000th Post - I had to say hello to my fav forum on DU
:hi:

:yourock:


And, here's a funny for you:

OFFICE DARES



ONE-POINT OFFICE DARES

1) Run one lap around the office at top speed.

2) Ignore the first five people who say 'good morning'
to you.

3) Phone someone in the office you barely know, leave
your name and
say,"Just called to say I can't talk right now. Bye."

4) To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your Hands
over your ears
and grimace.

5) Leave your zipper open for one hour. If anyone points
it out,
say,"Sorry, I really prefer it this way."

6) Walk sideways to the photocopier.

7) While riding in an elevator, gasp dramatically every
time the doors
open.

THREE-POINT DARES

1) Say to your boss, "I like your style" and shoot him
with
double-barreled fingers.

2) Babble incoherently at a fellow employee then ask,
"Did you get all
that, I don't want to have to repeat it."

3) Page yourself over the intercom (do not disguise your
voice).

4) Kneel in front of the water cooler and drink directly
from the
nozzle (there must be a 'non-player' within sight).

5) Shout random numbers while someone is counting.

FIVE POINT DARES

1) At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it
would be nice to
conclude with the singing of the national anthem (5
extra points if you
actually launch into it yourself).

2) Walk into a very busy person's office and while they
watch you with
growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10
times.

3) For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as "Bob."

4) Announce to everyone in a meeting that you "really
have to go do a
number two."

5) After every sentence, say 'Mon' in a really bad
Jamaican accent. As
in "The report's on your desk, Mon." Keep this up for 1
hour.

6) While an office mate is out, move their chair into
the elevator.

7) In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead
repeatedly and
mutter, "Shut up, all of you just shut up!"

8) At lunchtime, get down on your knees and announce,
"As God as my
witness, I'll never go hungry again."

9) In a colleague's DAY PLANNER, write in the 10 am
slot: "See how I
look in tights."(5 Extra points if it is a male, 5 more
if he is your
boss)

10) Carry your keyboard over to your colleague and ask,
"You wanna
trade?"

11) Repeat the following conversation 10 times to the
same person: "Do
you hear that?" "What?" "Never mind, it's gone now."

12) Come to work in army fatigues and when asked why,
say, "I can't
talk about it."

13) Posing as a maitre d', call a colleague and tell him
he's won a
lunch for four at a local restaurant. Let him go.

14) Speak with an accent (French, German, Porky Pig,
etc) during a very
important conference call.

15) Find the vacuum and start vacuuming around your
desk.

16) Hang a 2' long piece of toilet roll from the back of
your pants and
act genuinely surprised when someone points it out.

17) Present meeting attendees with a cup of coffee and
biscuits,
smashing each biscuit with your fist.

18) During the course of a meeting, slowly edge your
chair towards the
door.

19) Arrange toy figures on the table to represent each
meeting
attendee, move them according to the movements of their
real-life
counterparts.

And if that wasn't enough for you... How to keep a
healthy level of
insanity:

1) At lunchtime, sit in your parked car with sunglasses
on and point a
hair dryer at passing cars. See if they slow down.

2) Tell your children over dinner. "Due to the economy,
we are going to
have to let one of you go."

3) Every time someone asks you to do something, ask if
they want fries
with that.

4) Put your waste basket on your desk and label it "IN".

5) Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once
everyone has gotten
over his or her caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.

6) Finish all your sentences with "In accordance with
the prophecy."

7) Don't use any punctuation

8) Use, too...much; punctuation!

9) As often as possible, skip rather than walk.

10) Ask people what sex they are. Laugh hysterically
after they answer.

11) Specify that your drive-through order is "to go."

12) Sing along at the opera.

13) Go to a poetry recital and ask why the poems don't
rhyme.

14) Put mosquito netting around your work area. Play a
tape of jungle
sounds all day.

15) Five days in advance, tell your friends you can't
attend their
party because you're not in the mood.

16) Have your co-workers address you by your wrestling
name, "Rock
Hard."

17) When the money comes out of the ATM, scream "I Won!
I Won! 3rd time
this week!!!"

18) When leaving the zoo, start running towards the
parking lot
yelling, "Run for your lives, they're loose!"

And the final way to keep a healthy level of
insanity....

19) Send this to everyone in your address book, even if
they sent it to
you or have asked you not to send them stuff like this

Good to have you around! I tend to take the people in here for granted sometimes, so I'm glad for the opportunity to say how much I appreciate your posts.

3. Hello!
LOVE the dares, I just e-mailed them to the secretary at my office, who keeps me sane and brings me back to reality after a day on the road...
She will probably DO some of this stuff!
