Chaotic Coffee Klatch (tea also available)

Good morning everybody.

Morning Fun

 

[Cindy027]

Fridays are generally really good days for me.
I do have one difficult meeting today, but the rest of the day is generally "good fun."
And it almost always ends with beers across the street with some cool coworkers.

I’ve just finished a VC so that’s my day done unless work decides it’s not

There is a thread here about what work doesn’t know about you and a guy on there said he does VCs naked from the waste down So when the VC starts I now want to ask all the guys to stand before we begin but don’t, because that will probably not go over to well I know most of them and wouldn’t think they would but then you never know.

Btw, just to avoid confusion I am in the camp that would be unhappy with this behavior

We’re all broken in some way, but friendship, laughs and (hopefully) sex will get us though. Morning hugs for all.

We have a coffee meeting in my team on Friday afternoon. Might talk work - might talk just about what people plan for the weekend. Also the Monday morning team meeting starts unofficially.

Ah, I think you told me this once. Have a GREAT day!

Now I wanna know what a VC is. And why doing them partially naked would make you unhappy. Have you tried it? Maybe you're missing out! (I'm totally joking...well sort of....now I'm picturing things...never mind....how did we get here?????)

I just read that in the Kermit voice in my head and it made me happy....

I’m old enough to remember that when I was a kid VC meant Viet Cong!

I was thinking “Venture Capitalist “

It ain’t easy being green!!

 

[lakesailer_mi]

Well I first thought "Victoria Cross"

Then "Vice City" but that doesn't make sense.

Then I wondered if it was a disease/condition of some kind "Venereal Conjunctivitis" but again, that didn't make sense....


But...no... I bet it's something really boring like, "Vacuum Cleaner"

 

[LittleSwitchy]

I’m thinking it’s a time to do a video call here
Lol

I was born in 1954...I remember quite a few wars

I think thats for the other thread.
Is it raining yet where you are?

I looked that up and found this:
It is a name that can be deeply offensive and hurtful to the Vietnamese American community.

Oops

Not yet. Looks like it will soon though.

It was a terrible pointless war and we really destroyed their country. They should hate the slur. I merely stated that it was in common usage here for thirty years and kids then knew what it meant.

That makes sense to me - accusing an American of being viet cong would be pretty offensive. Not dissimilar to calling someone a Nazi.

It’s ten below temperature here today, I need the hottest of hot coffee

I would quibble with that Bren. The Nazis were undeniably bad guys. The Cong (that slur again) certainly committed atrocities but the movement as a whole was one of independence and were, to many Vietnamese, patriots.
