1. Yeah

I think Gen. Kelly's scope of duties has pretty much been reduced to defending his exclusive claim to the red stapler.

2. "i used to be over by the window, and i could see the squirrels, and they were married..."

"... it's not okay because if they take my stapler then i'll, i'll, i'll set the building on fire..."

5. I laugh everytime I see that photo

Office Space is one of my all time favorite movies

6. Amazing how that film resonates over time.

The tech is ancient, but the office bullshit is current as fuck.

7. Yep

One of my nephews shows it every time I visit - says he just loves to hear me howling with laughter.
That plus the fact that when we first watched it he was a kid - now he really gets it.

4. All Sarah Huckabee Sanders should have said was.......

"NO COMMENT!"

But no! She had to beat around the bush. Pun intended.

8. these people are too used to lying and too used to getting away with it.

in another world, she could have said "no comment" or "i haven't been briefed on that" or "what does that have to do with the white house?"

and if anyone says "well, can you get briefed?" she could say "i'm not going to ask the president of the united states about some wild accusation of from porn star!" and with any other president everyone would say, yeah, good point.

9. You make a good point. Trump is surrounded by people who, like him, have learned to lie their way

out of trouble and into positions they desire. It is an ingrained habit, and they don't really have any other strategies to see them through life. They also are not intelligent enough to remember all their lies and make their stories consistent over time.
