    Plating up breakfasts in servery one day, I had the following exchange with a co-worker.

    She asks, 'I never understood why you put an egg on a meat-free breakfast.'
    '..You what?'
    'Why is there an egg on a meat-free breakfast?'
    'Well, cos eggs aren't meat, are they.'
    'Well yeah, I know that, but don't they come from cows or something?'

    Poor lass, never lived it down.

    My dad always tells the story of his college roommate doing this project for something. He made a cow out of milk cartons, yogurt cartons, cheese wrappers and an egg cartons. My dad asked what the hell he was doing and he replied with, they are all things that come from cows, milk, eggs, cheese...

    A kipper is a whole fish that has been split from tail to head, eviscerated, salted, and smoked. Typically, the species is a herring or salmon, but traditionally it is any fish found in great numbers and caught during its spawning period. Spawning fish are not good to eat fresh and usually arrive in great abundance, thus they are salted and smoked to improve flavor and preservation.

    ...new levels of stupidity that I did not know existed. A girl that I work with was convinced today that you can have boxes of steam. Nathan was playing with the milk steamer thing on the coffee machine, and he said to Amy (the girl) "Amy, can you go and get me some steam for the steamer please?" and she actually went and asked the manager where it was :eek2:.

    This scares me.

    And this was the highlight of my day.

    Yes, my life is that boring.

    She got owned.
