Is Your Co-Worker an Alien?

Weekly World News: 10 Signs Your Co-Worker Is an Alien (link via [livejournal.com profile] supergee).

Number 1 is a good one. I had a professor once who regularly wore suit jackets and ties with jeans and sneakers, and he openly admitted he was an alien: he was Irish.

It is interesting that weekly world news
has a web presence although somehow it seems
(not his article but the whole)less interesting
than the newspaper although I havent looked at
that really for a couple of years so just
comparing to memories.

The newspaper closed down a while back. Apparently the web site is all that's left! This has made the check-out lines so much less interesting, which may be why candy makers feel compelled to come out with new versions of old candy bars to keep us entertained.

I am guilty of at least six of those things, but then, we all know I'm an alien. I've never taken frequent sick days, though I tend to spend months at a time unemployed. I'm not sure how bizarre my sense of humor is or how often I misuse everyday items, and I don't think I'm terribly secretive. The rest is true.

You're a very friendly alien, though

Hurray! I succeed at some level of integration into certain subcultures. ^*^

Seems like many of my friends are aliens. This comes as no surprise. :-)
