People say “weird things happen on Halloween”. Well, here in Cube City it’s can’t be far from the truth. Case in point; a special invitation was sent out for lunch at the Mecca for Monday November 4th. Here’s how the conversations went:

ManCave: I expect good participation for this sanctioned, LG, event.
Smokes: No can do for me. I’ll be at DTP trialing new equipment.
OM: I’m in. I hear they have a killer green smoothie.
Smokes: IT’S PEOPLE!!!!!
T-Mobile: And we expect only Lunch Gang Members to join for lunch --- others wonabe cold watch from far away
OM: Speak English T-Mobile…
T-Mobile: Ok I missed a “U” - cold = could / Wonabe = wont to be / Anything else!!!!!!
OM: Want to be… or wannabe
ManCave: Wannabe? We can find a table here that is occupied and kick the people off it. Bring food to throw.
Bago: Wont to be = want to be ? In the immortal words of Samuel L. Jackson…“English M-F’er, DO YOU SPEAK IT?”
NextGen Picky: Yes. We need to epically claim our table. If there aren’t blood and tears involved (on the part of the tossies), we gentlemen - have failed.
Coach: What the heck is NextGen Picky talking about?
Mansel: if you want me to mark our territory, say the word.
NextGen Picky: Let’s talk about IT
ManCave: What is a “tossies”? MANSEL…Urban Dictionary this term.
Coach: Both of you New Bee’s by LG Law are to put that phrase into your signature file.
NextGen Picky: Tossies (toss – eeze) n. – The people we forcefully expel from the seats we wish to occupy.
Mansel: Derivation of….toss
(vb.) to masturbate or wank; usu. used as a verbal phrase as in 'toss off'.
Also forms 'tosser', lit. someone who masturbates, but used as a derogative.

Get outta my room you tosser! I'm not having you standing there whilst I'm tossing off.
Bago: And we should all remember, the new bees are only naturalized citizens of LG, they can’t run for president. Not like they were part of LG by birth…these new money people trying to spread their wings could find them clipped….
Coach: Be careful. Remember Gene Hackman in the movie “Enemy of the State”…Their listen to you all the time. Key words or phrases like “Stall 3” or “masturbates” will send the bastards in looking for you.
ManCave: Excellent providing of definitions, MANSEL.

Then there’s the Tea Time Halloween incident. As a few of us we’re standing around enjoying our Halloween tea-time, OM says “headed to the bathroom”. With is tea cup full of hot tea, he heads to the bathroom. Coach yells out “Tea in Stall 3?” OM’s reply: yes, along with crumpets.
Oh man, Halloween makes people get really weird.
