When I was working as a paralegal, we'd often spend the day practicing knife throwing. I even constructed a knife throwing dummy. We'd take turns making new faces for it. Sometimes I'd make fake client files and file them away.

On our down time, we'd sometimes play the nintendo emulator I installed on all the office computers.

hmm,

Now I realize, I could simply press "print screen" and that would be proof enough, I am afterall at work now, and since im typing this i am not working.
However, i think i'll hold off untill i can get something really epic going. I think I'll go next door and take a nap in the stairwell(its the chicago public schools building). Does it still count as points, if i am immune from getting in trouble while there? I am after all the buildign manager, I do what i want. I feel this betrays the spirit of the task.

Like Katelyn, I, too

could offer the fact that I've been mucking around on sf0 on and off all day as proof of this fact.

But I also agree, that would be too easy...

It all started with a Ridiculous Protest. After defending the majesty of my beautiful city's hills through the use of a hoarse voice and strong accusations, we all (even those heathen anti-hillsters) went to engage in some burrito inhalation. Mousta...

This started with a little idea. There have been a number of good Lounge Against the Machine completions already. And yet, no one had slept in or on a government building. So DC0 planned a little slumber party on the steps of the capitol building;...

I work for the government, in a big unfriendly office. Many cubicled people spend all day staring at their computer screens, blankly tapping away at their keyboards. I saw this task and thought, "Yeah right. That would get me fired." But i...

Mission: Create or introduce something into your office that causes or strongly encourages your coworkers to not work at work. As a belated birthday gift to my colleague, I made an impromptu treasure hunt around our shop. I was a little worried he w...

I'd forgotten all about this task until I saw someone else's proof. Now, there's something to say about my completion of this task, being 1) that we work really really hard here, really really long hours, but 2) we know how to goof off and have fun....

On December 22nd 2007 there was a bon fire as a tribute to the greatness that once was door hendge. I was fortunate enough to attend said bon fire. The only problem with this was that I live in Stockton and that this bon fire was held in San Fransico...

Since I was out until the wee hours of the morning so as to get into the swing of Polyphasic Sleep at a coffee shop that I enjoy, trying to get imaginary laid, I accidentally left the power cord to my laptop at the coffee shop. This meant that I had...

After being sick all week I finally made it into the office on a rainy Friday to get some lounging done. Man am I sick of lounging around in my own bed. Felt good to get back to work. My associate helped by taking the picture that I edited that she ...
