expectations
so i knew my coworkers would comment on the modifications i made to my bike. so i prepped some retorts. sure enough. one came up and asked what happened to your bicycle seat. technically it's a saddle. yeah yeah i'm a wannabe cycling enthusiast. what happened to it? i cut off its nose. at which point another coworker stood up and peered over his monitors at my bike. they stared at it for an interminably long time without saying anything. and i'm dying to deliver my ball squishing nose cutting off punchline. so finally i state, you're wondering why. nope. nope? wtf? i know why you did it. i'm wondering why anyone ever made a saddle any other way. my beautifully prepped witticism down the drain. ah well.
