Well, I would hardly claim this is my favoured method of passing time, but there’s no use protesting. Sometimes we need to knuckle down and ensure the work is done. Because as you can see for yourself, sometimes the work is dull.

In any case, I am offering everyone a pleasant extra-curricular activity to pass the time.

Try responding to this post with the first word that comes to mind. Respond to words posted by others with other words that come to mind. I am more than aware such games are not for everybody, but perhaps you should give it a shot.

Ah, I suppose I should get us started:

Police.

As in, somebody call the police because this is Hell.

Work.

[levelshift]

Bureaucracy.

[Sadly, his work isn’t as cool.]

[restingstitchface]

[Ugh.]

Paperwork.

[levelshift]

Dull.

[Come on, what else is he going to put.]

[restingstitchface]

Insipid.

[Or jejune. Pick your poison.]

[levelshift]

That's a good one. I wish I could get away with calling all the paperwork I have to do insipid.

[restingstitchface]

Well, denigrating paperwork is but one perk of being your own boss, I suppose.

[The other is having nobody brave enough to ask what you're doing at work until the early hours. ]

[levelshift]

Guess so. It still needs to get done though, and that's shitty.

[He is way too young to be doing paperwork. It's so boring, he doesn't know how adults do it as a career.]
