Jan. 14th — Talk Like Jack Bauer Day

That’s right, dammit! Today is Talk Like Jack Bauer Day, in honor of what would have been the season premiere of 24 if the writer’s hadn’t gone on strike.
Don’t know how to do that? No worries. Remote Access and Blogs4Bauer will tell you how.
• Say “Dammit!” a lot. By a lot, we mean at least once every sentence or two.
Example:
Co-worker: How was your weekend?
You: Dammit! Stop asking me all these questions! The Chinese couldn’t break me, dammit, and you can’t, either!
• Insist — no matter what anyone asks you to do — that “There isn’t enough time!”
Example:
Co-worker: Hey, wanna go to lunch?
You: Dammit! There isn’t enough time, man!
• If anything slightly suspicious happens, blame it on a mole. Or Nina Meyers. Or both.
Example:
Open the break room fridge. Notice a can of soda you may have put in there (or may have drunk already) is not there.
You: Dammit! I told Nina if she ever took my Diet Coke again, I’d stab her in the knee with a letter opener.
Co-worker: Who’s Nina?
You: Are you working with her, dammit? Maybe you’re the mole? Dammit! Where’s Chloe?
• No matter what anyone asks you, react with suspicion.
Example:
Boss: How’s the family?
You: Who are you working for, dammit?
Boss: The same company as you.
You: That’s what Nina said, dammit!
• Tell everyone to send you any information to your PDA. Doesn’t matter if you have one or not.
Example:
Boss: Did you get those specs I sent you?
You: Dammit! Did you send them to my PDA? (wave something in his or her face)
Boss: Um, that’s a Pop Tart you’re waving around.
You: That’s what Nina tried to tell me, dammit. And you do know what happened to Nina, don’t you?
