Working Conditions

[baltimore_buh-ric]

Okay, folks, the buh-ric has something he would like to discuss, something which, frankly, he finds dissapointing. The buh-ric's good friend Elliot, a long time loyal Rough Draft employee had something stolen from his desk in between the time he went home last night and the time he returned this morning. The missing item? None other than his favorite mechanical pencil.

Scoff if you will, those of you who are prone to scoffing, but as a long time admirer of those of you that work in the hallowed halls of Rough Draft Studios, this turn of events, combined with the recent Mystery Box travesty, has left an unpleasant taste in the buh-ric's mouth. Sure, Elliot may have been able to find an exact replacement for his missing pencil, but I ask you this: where is the integrity that made RDSers the cream of the animation crop? The camaraderie that won a Glendale Co-Ed Municipal League Monday Lower Division Softtball Championship? People, where is the "t" in team?

Perhaps in soberly pondering these queries, the good people of Rough Draft will be able to regain that sense of fraternity and equality which is apparently lacking, and the sensless theft of mechanical pencils will be a thing of the past. One can only hope-- no, one MUST hope!

So says the buh-ric!

Face it, buh-ric: Elliot is not exactly surrounded by, let's say, the "fairer-skinned" types down in that cesspool. That Italian (half) guy sitting to the side of Elliot should be warning enough that NOTHING should be left unlocked.

Hey Swine,

Racism sucks. Italians have been discriminated against for centuries, like, the Mafia even exists! Just because you speak Mexican, and some Wop doesn't, it's no reason for you to look down your Montezuma-looking nose at him.
Can't we all just get along and quit crying about our "stolen" stuff?
crybabies.

Lodge out.

Okay, I've lived with the guilt for the better part of this last year and I just can't take it anymore...I TOOK ELLIOT'S G%D D@MNED PENCIL, OKAY? I was going to put it back, but it slipped out of my pocket and fell in the toilet while I was using the rest room. So what was I supposed to do, huh?! Maybe it was an inconvenience for Elliot to have to get a new one, but that sure as hell beats writing with a pencil covered with toilet water in my book!
Case solved.
Moderator, you can close this friggin' thread now.

Sorry, but someone here is lying. I stole the pencil. I couldn't live with myself if I didn't confess.
I used that beautiful pencil like a dull knife to carve the name "Rachel" into my scrotum. Alas, afterward I felt it best to dispose of it.
so sorry.

[lois common-de'nominator]

you are both filthy liars.

it was i, lois common-de'nominator, laced-labiaed lick-s l u t of the GLORIOUS ONE, RACHEL, who filched elliot's pathetic pencil. i was commanded by my LIFE-GIVING B!TCH GODDESS to contain the writing tool within my body for a period of one year, at which time it will be viciously removed and returned to it's owner (4/15/05).

How you people are able to take an idea and make it more disgusting with each progressive post both amazes and sickens me Keep up the good work.
Love Futurama, by the way. Will we be seeing Lois on any of the new episodes (should they ever be made?)
