the server that holds basically all knowledge in this entire library is so old it doesn't have any hdmi ports. didn't someone point out 90% of major tech infrastructure runs on windows 93? so this is probably fine

Demco dropped off promotional gel pens. Like catnip. We are fighting over who gets to use the gel pens. We search for the gel pens each morning. We exclaim how much we live the gel pens every time we use them. The patrons have walked off with all the gel pens now

husband's work is exclusively staffed by men with the most generic Dude names. Ben. Pete. Dave. Todd. Tom. Dan. Pat. Many nights he talks about work and i just stare at him like, 'who the fuck is CHARLIE' and it turns out their desks have been next to each other for five years

Lots of books out there talking about winter and living through winter and learning to love the rhythm of the seasons and they're all written by brits. Get the hell outta here with your gulf stream nonsense. You should be listening to me

dad brought kids in 15 minutes before we closed yesterday, didn't pay attention to our 'we're closing soon!' warning, then when his kid had a meltdown because they had to leave, looked at the children's librarian in the eye and said 'you know, we didn't get enough time here today.'
