    So around the office we have this thing on Valentine's Day where we buy gifts for each other anonymously. A bit silly IMO, but I don't complain about chocolate. But this year I didn't get chocolate. I got a six-pack of Guinness and two packs of cigarettes. Should I be: A) Happy to have what I like and pleased that my co-workers know me so well. B) Disturbed by the focus on my vices. C) Concerned by the fact that my co-workers are feeding me poison.

      Why are you still indoors near a computer? Parks don't have benches in your world?

        I've got the beer in the office fridge, but it isn't cold (cool) yet.

          I think you should be highly offended. Stand in the middle of the office and shout "NO GIN? NO TONIC? YOU'RE BARBARIANS!"

              D) Be thankful that they didn't check your browser history, because whips and handcuffs would have been more embarrassing.

                  Are you kidding? That's how I decorate my office. It scares the newbies away so I don't have to mentor them.
