Letters from God

Sometimes, when I'm bored, I write people letters from God.  Yeah, that's right....God (or sometimes the ghosts of dead authors).  It's a thing that happens at my job a lot.  People log onto computer and forget to log off again.  Sometimes we do things like hack their Facebook accounts, but one of my friends devised an idea that turned out to be a lot more fun for everyone involved.  We started writing letters from God.

 

The letters are pretty simple.  Mostly: Hello [NAME], this is God.  I've missed you lately.  We really need to talk more.  I'll be waiting ;)  ~I AM WHO AM

 

And we've come to find that people really like these letters, so much so that they will purposely leave their computers unlocked, just so they can get one.  A friend of mine commented about that today, saying he left his computer open so that he could get a letter from God.  I had to pretend that I had no idea what he was talking about, but inside, I was doing a bit of a fist-pump with a big ol' grin on my face.  It was like a mini-victory for me.

 

I had to excuse myself, leave work, and wait until he was gone before nipping back in, jumping on his computer, and hastily typing out a letter to him.  I have no life, I know....but I just couldn't let the guy down....I mean, he left his computer on specifically expecting a letter from me God, and who was I to let him down?

 

Don't judge me...........

English Major Armadillo

 

I think that these jokes will be most appreciated by Chessie and Sarah, but hopefully most of you will find at least one that you get a kick out of. English Major Armadillo is a fun little meme where everything is an inside joke that English majors would understand. I subscribe to the RSS feed for this Tumblr account, and get myself a daily dose of English major jokes. These are some of my favorites :)

If you don't get one of the jokes, please let me know; I'll be able to fill you in (and don't worry if you were confused; there were a lot that confused me, too.  It just depends on what you've read...)



What about Wherewolf?

Librarian Jokes

So, I just posted a quick blurb about a reference to awesome librarians on MLIA. Well, since I've just "come out of the bookstore" about being a librarian, (at least with you guys...my friends have known for YEARS) I wanted to toss out a quick challenge for all of you...

Wanting to be a librarian is not exactly mainstream, and I get teased about it a lot (not bad teasing, just bad jokes ;P) and I can tell you that I've heard just about EVERY SINGLE librarian joke ever told. Well, here's your challenge...Come up with one I don't know! One I haven't heard! Are you up to the challenge?

Here are a few of the more memorable ones...

~"Emmy, are you going to wear your hair in a bun when you're a librarian? I mean, you already have the glasses."

~"I hope you like drinking tea; it's all librarians are allowed to drink."

-Professor Thomas

~"You're not mean enough to be a librarian." :'(

And my personal favorite....from Willoughby:

~"You'd make a wonderful librarian: you're short and female." O.o

Um...what does that even mean, Willoughby?? Seriously. (Someone needs a better sense of humor...or perhaps just needs one in general...)

So, thou hast thine quests, fine Readers! Librarian jokes! (and I'll post my favorites later on!)
