    Why am I reminded of this scene from the movie Fight Club?

    Richard Chesler: [Reading a piece of paper] The first rule of Fight Club is you don't talk about Fight Club?
    Narrator: [Voice-over] I'm half asleep again; I must've left the original in the copy machine.
    Richard Chesler: The second rule of Fight Club - is this yours?
    Narrator: Huh?
    Richard Chesler: Pretend you're me, make a managerial decision: you find this, what would you do?
    Narrator: [pauses] Well, I gotta tell you: I'd be very, very careful who you talk to about that, because the person who wrote that... is dangerous.
    [Gets up from the chair]
    Narrator: [Talking slowly] And this button-down, Oxford-cloth psycho might just snap, and then stalk from office to office with an Armalite AR-10 carbine gas-powered semi-automatic weapon, pumping round after round into colleagues and co-workers. This might be someone you've known for years. Someone very, very close to you.
    Narrator: [Voice-over] Tyler's words coming out of my mouth.
    [Snatches the piece of paper from boss' hands]
    Narrator: [Voice-over] And I used to be such a nice guy.
    Narrator: Or maybe you shouldn't bring me every little piece of trash you happen to pick up.
    [Phone rings]
    Narrator: [Into phone] Compliance and Liability...?
    Marla Singer: My tit's gonna rot off.
    Narrator: [to boss] Would you excuse me? I need to take this.

    Good point Sue.

    I think http://twitter.com/ might be even better for him.

    I have a plan to run a server farm full of AI bots that will act as 'virtual friends' to Twitter users and express a great interest in the every detail of their non-lives.

    Wilmslow: I had a blueberry muffin for breakfast - yum!

    AI Bot: Hey! That's Great!

    Wilmslow: I had a huge dump!

    AI Bot: Hey! That's Great! Any muffin currants come out?

    Now, that is a scary thought. He will be hounding me, asking me to join him on company day trips. Oh no, what am I doing??? Before I know it I will be wearing a company poly tie as well. Must move desks…….

    I am a good company man - he thinks he is but he does not even have a company tie.

    He reckons his Focus is great - he doesn't realize it is no better than my Skoda.

    Most of the people here are boring - but this person out-bores them all!

    Last week I pissed all over his shoes in the gents - he just ran away.

    What a loser.

    We seem to arrive at the same time in the car park – makes my Focus look like a supercar as he has a T reg Skoda, always immaculately polished. I proffer a friendly wave – he completely ignores me.

    He waits until I get out of the car and walk to the office – today I spent longer enjoying a song on the radio, hence he bolted – I soon caught up with him, he looked right through me.

    Once at the desks, I offer a friendly good morning. He pretends I don’t exist.

    He wears a company tie – best polyester, of course. Personality of a brick.

    End of the day – I wave goodbye. I may as well be waving to a corpse.

    Appears to have chips on his shoulder, as well as his stomach.

    Looks like a good contender for a new series of The Office.

    I am sooo not bothered. I just find him very entertaining and enjoy expecting nothing back from a friendly hello.

    Anyone else got one of those office pets?
    Try grabbing him by the arm next time
