Shawn Morrison: Looking forward to [the beach trip and] getting the hell out of here.
Me: You and me both.
Shawn Morrison: Literally, the NYPD has a warrent for my arrest. What's your excuse?
Me: I'm not sure how to describe it without seeming crass, so I'll just say it involved my junk and someone's face who didn't want their face near my junk.
Me: Come to think of it, that sounded pretty crass.
Shawn Morrison: Well, didn't seem crass at all at first.
Shawn Morrison: When I was picturing your junk as all the trinkets you hoarde.
Me: Yeah, I need to stop referring to my trinket pile as junk too, it's starting to confuse people.
Shawn Morrison: God, so then what did you think yesterday when I said, "I want to oil up your junk and rub it on my cheeks?"
Me: Let's just say I was nervous and cautiously optimistic.
Shawn Morrison: Funny, me too.

Rules For a Healthy Relationship
Shawn Morrison: Oh, Sara really wants to see Inglourious Basterds.
Shawn Morrison: And also we were kiiinda supposed to hang out tomorrow night (whoops!).
Me: You live with her. Hang out on Tuesdays.
Me: You can even go to Ruby Tuesdays... it's made for exactly that kind of hanging out.
Me: You walk in, order one of those 2 people/$20/3 courses things and then talk about what you're going to do on Wednesday.
Shawn Morrison: Was that the secret to your success?
Me: Dr. Garrett's rules for a healthy relationship:
Me: 1. Don't spend time together.
Me: 2. Ruby Tuesdays.
Me: 3. PROFIT ($??)
Shawn Morrison: I like it.
Shawn Morrison: I like it a lot.

Weather Report
Me: Luckily (FINGERS FUCKING CROSSED) it looks like next weekend the beach weather is supposed to be fantastic.
Shawn Morrison: Uh oh... I always take week-out forecasts to be the opposite of what they say.
Shawn Morrison: Sunny? Rainy. Rainy? Sunny. Foggy? Rape Gangs.
Me: Yeah, that last one always makes for such awful weekends.
Shawn Morrison: Yeah, well if you're not in the gang.
From A Long While Back
Shawn Morrison: That you can't (easily) vertically center in CSS is kinda like creating a suit of armor and forgetting to cover up the crotch at all.
Me: It is weird that that's STILL a problem.
Me: Nice metaphor, as well.
Shawn Morrison: It's just so glaring.
Shawn Morrison: Especially now that CSS is adding crazy animation stuff, shadows, rounded corners. Yet you still have do crazy stuff or use a table to vertically center.
Me: Have you considered immediately quitting and leaving work and just disappearing?
Me: Completely falling off the grid. Forever.
Shawn Morrison: Every second of every day.
