my boss
I swear to god this just happened. My boss walked over carrying a cup of coffee, took a sip, and asked me politely for the TPS reports. (In my biz, thats Transactions per Second)

I thought he was joking but he was actually serious.

Apologies to those who wont get the reference.

For de-ris
it's "Office Space".

If you haven't seen that movie yet, shame on you. It's not really a parody, it's a documentary.

Yet another
'didn't see what the fuss was about' film for me, sadly.

But then Time Bandits is in my top 5....

Peter
Ah! Yeah. It's just we're putting new coversheets on all the TPS reports before they go out now. So if you could go ahead and try to remember to do that from now on, that'd be great. All right!

@Monty
Time Bandits is ace. I'll agree with you there.

@everyone/anyone: you seen Idiocracy? It's the film Mike Judge did after Office SPace. Scarily prescient...

@Empress
I caught the end of it the other night...

It saddened me in it;s prophetic view of the future, replace some aspects with:
Burberry
Cars with lights/over powered sound systems/huuge exhausts
and Jeremy Kyle as prime minister...
