I posted this in the random crap thread--didn't realize there was a whole thread about it. I'll repost what I said there: I think it's cowardly, rude, and confrontational. I don't find it epic or cool at all. For one, this is one side of the story. Not just for us, but likely for her whole office. For another, as I said over there, the boss seems like a dick, granted, but he called her attractive (in a creepy way) in a private conversation. Not only that, in what way does that mean that's "all he thinks of her"? I don't know--I don't have the whole story--but I suspect not. I've gotten a little sensitive to this stuff lately. She's physically attractive. Spencer is in no way evil or bad for noticing that or commenting on it privately. Sex is part of the human condition. Again, before anyone goes off on me, from what she says, he sounds like a jerk, and maybe she deserved some comeuppance, but I just find this more annoying than "epic".

It's epic in the sense that she went with a bang (if it had been true). Besides that, I agree with you Fade. But I won't complain, because she's hot.

I get what you are saying Fade but... One important thing. He (and yes, I know it's fictional, just working with what I got) did not comment on her attractiveness (and lets face it, saying "he commented on her attractiveness" is a very nice way of saying he was very rudely and crudely commenting on her looks)in a private conversation, he did it in the workplace, on a work telephone on what must be considered a (albeit fictional) business phone call. Making sexually inappropriate comments like that is not ok. If he wants to do it off the clock on his phone outside the office, well, not much one can do, but this fictional situation doesn't seem to fit the "private" scenario that would make it, according to some, appropriate or ok.

She looks familiar. I'm trying to figure out where I've seen her before. Maybe she just has one of those faces.

Well, I guess Fade doesn't like this. More proof that he's the bellwether of everything anti-me.

Get off, getting off of your high horse... this could go on forever.

I am just tired of seeing a post followed by a random attack post.

What "high horse" was I on? It'd be a really stupid way to quit. That's not a high horse. In fact it puts me down with the lowlies who have to work where she quit.

Not to mention I acknowledged I didn't realize it was a joke later.
