I fail to understand why, in the middle of budget season, when they've started to cast a baleful eye on persons in the finance department who dare to go out for lunch, they nonetheless find it appropriate to block out two hours in the middle of the day for a holiday party. Not that I wish to complain about other people offering to feed me. I'm just hoping to see the surface of my desk at some point before I leave today, and if I have to sit around and listen to the VPs talk about football for two hours, I doubt that's going to be possible.

So let me get this straight...

The generosity didn't cost you a cent, yet you published a letter to all employees (even if it was an email, it was on company time), plus the publicity to advertise the charity campaign in the first place.

Yeah. Good going there, chief (not you, CYB).

Your assessment is correct. But...CYB? You are so cruising for a bruising, darling.

Hey, I'm trying not to call you by That Name...

Would you prefer Anassa Krokolagos? Or perhaps Princeps Crocelepus?

Whee!

főnök sárganyuszi?
Anführer Gelbhase?
dame lapinejaune?
caudillo conejito amarillo!!!

That was easy.

You're all getting haikus.

hey, the Latin one could have been a lot worse. The usual word for rabbit is cuniculus, which is also the familiar/diminuative form of cunnus. Which means... well, about what it looks like it might mean.

Hrm.

But then you've got the 'yellow' bit to deal with, and I somehow doubt that our Saff is blonde in that bit...

Re: Hrm.

Luteucuniculus. Luteus can mean either yellow or gray (see #30). The unfortunate side effect of all this being that this would translate at best as "Yellow Rabbit." At worst, "Dirty little cunnus."

My new pagan name shall be Armadillo Amarillo! Take that, Sapphire Chicken!

I thought you were going to be Ruby Pigeon. Make up your mind already, eh?

In true fluffy style, I shall change my Pagan Name with every cycle of the Triple Moon Goddess.

Argh.

The sound you do not hear is the sound of my eyes rolling up into my head, going past the 90-degree mark, then falling back into place. It sounds like this: whirr...whirr...SNAP!....squelch...blink...blink.

now jai keeps saying she is sapphire chicken and i thought you was ruby chicken. i don't have a new pagan name. WWWAAAAHHHH!!!

Re: So let me get this straight...

[zylch.livejournal.com]

I was Ruby Pigeon, but then I realized that my True Calling is to the gods of TexMex. So I changed my name.

If you really want a new pagan name, it's hard to beat Lady Pixie Moondrip's Guide to Craft Names. kittenpants made one too, but damned if I can find the URL.
