Corpse Run 193: How not to be a gentleman
That wasn’t very gentlemanly, Professor…
So, I mentioned in yesterday’s Kat’s Korner that I’m going to be starting a new job soon, so if you were wondering why I haven’t had any job rants in a while, that’s why! I actually left the store back in December and had been hopping around a few temp jobs between then and now.
So… what’s my super cool new job you ask? Drumroll… real estate agent… neat-o. I’m currently in the middle of a certification class in order to get licensed to do the job, and it’s… a barrel of monkeys exceptional higher education. Half the class spends time talking during the lessons, and a good portion of the people seem to show up exclusively to sign the attendance sheet and then leave. Super!
On the plus side, the class is pretty informative if you’re prepared to listen and take notes. On the super plus side, I get to hear some total gems from other classmates during the breaks.
Some guy talking about the diversity of New York:
“Standing in New York, you see ALL walks of life: ya got punk, ya got Christian, ya got… … Amish, everyone.”
Now, far be it for me to say, but I am pretty sure Amish people wont be found in the city. Granted, I know they have a thing when their youngsters are about to come of age and they are allowed to experience outside life for a few weeks, but chances are the Amish aren’t living in New York, doesn’t seem like their thing.
A girl talking about race relations:
“Hey, some races are all the same; you know, horses of a feather flock together.”
I don’t even know what to do with that one. Jackie suggested that she may have been referencing “horsefeathers” which came up in a word game she was playing, but who knows. I’m hoping that’s what it was, anyways.
Jackie would like to point out, by the by, that in addition to making a lewd sign with the hand gestures featured in the comic puzzle, you could also make a balloon. She doesn’t think me saying this will translate well in text… BUT IT’S POSTED HERE ANYWAYS.
Also, she just had a glass of whiskey.
“Shhhhhhhhhhhh,” says Jackie.
“Shhhhhhhh.”
Working in real estate? I can’t wait to see the kind of rants that job will give us.
Real estate? Interesting. My friend’s mom does the neighborhood’s real estate business. I wonder how bad it can possibly be. Whatever you do, though, don’t real estate glass houses. Just don’t.
As for the comic, the Professor should learn manners. Too much porn when the lad’s away.
Alex, the more you talk about your roommate combined with the topic of whiskey, the more I feel inclined for her. Something about women and strong alcohol just sounds so… sexy…
Don’t tell her that. : P
Oh, by the way… I just barely realized the puzzle #.
He’s saying she has the key to his heart. Durr.
Sadly i dont think that girl was talking about whatever horsefeathers is. But Huzzah for getting outta retail, May i be so lucky as to follow in your footsteps and leave the forsaken trade of grocery work.
Girl: Yeah, that sounds like a really good deal, but I’ve got a better one. How about I give you the finger . . . and you go **** off.
Good job getting into real estate… unless you live in CA. Some of my family their are in real estate, and I heard from them last year about a new law regard taxes for buying AND selling homes.
Btw that girl probably meant Birds of a feather flock together, which seems to promote racial segregation more than anything else 😛
Is it bad that while reading this, my brain filled in every sound effect?
