A Perfect Example Of Why I Am A Terrible Employee

December 11, 2006 By Jenny Ryan 12 Comments

AKA, “If Something Is Stupid, I Am Going To Point It Out To Everyone.”

My husband: “I might get the Nintendo Wii before Christmas. If I do, then I’ll be asking for some of its accessories on my Christmas list.”

Me: “I heard that people are having a lot of trouble with those.”

My husband: “Yeah, apparently the strap keeps breaking on the wee-mote.”

Me: “Excuse me, the what?”

My husband: “Yes, that’s what it’s called. The Wii-mote.”

Me: “Hm, and apparently it was named by Elmer Fudd.” (“I wost my wee-mote. I wuv my wee-mote.”)

    I guess that I’m just a friggin’ loser, I just never got into video games. So the whole thing is like watching monkees in a zoo for me. I’m standing outside the video game loving world, looking in and thinking, “They are SO different from me!” I have no desire to be in there.

    Suggestion: For Christmas, go to Home Despot or somewhere, and buy all kinds of little hooks and metal attaching thingies, then go to like PetSmart and buy studded collars and straps of various colors and sizes, and maybe some super glue and dump it all in a box and wrap it for Christmas. When he opens it and sees all the loose items and says, “What’s all this?”, you can tell him it’s raw material for him to make his own secure wee-mote strap.
