A Well-Worn Phrase

    Didja ever work with someone who begins every blame thing he says, no matter how off-topic, with, "The point being...."
     I have.

      I came to believe it was bright green, lived under his desk (at least in his mind) and would occasionally run out and begin waving its pointy little arms at him, frantic that he chime in.

     Um -- "Oooga-booga." Oh, yes.

     I'm gonna have to get some felt and fabric glue and big, googly stick-on "eyes."

Our bingo phrase is "The reality is..."

Who ever says it first has to buy donuts or muffins for the rest of the borg.

Reminds me of Allie Brosh's "alot."

Did anyone else see that and immediately think "Halloween Costume!"? :)

Maybe you could hack an Annoy-A-Tron to use some custom phrases and sound samples, and put it in your google-eyed fuzzy traffic cone.
