Before 10:30am? No Way.

After 2pm? I am ok with it, but still do not like it.

Why would someone make Popcorn every day (like they do in my office)?

Sorry I just like popcorn at the movie not while I am at work, and not every day.

[tyedyedee]

< eats popcorn almost every day











(not at work though, and def wouldnt make it every day at work - maybe once or twice a week - i am a popcorn junkie )

[alsoa]

I've never understood why people have an aversion to the smell of popcorn. I never eat popcorn, but I like the smell.

If someone microwaves fish however..

[unbroken_chain]

just don't burn it, bro.

[Spidergawd]

I like to leave it in the microwave for at least 11 minutes to be sure it's all popped. It's nice to add some fish oil before heating too.

[melissa.phish]

Any time you do not burn it is fine. Mmmmm popcorn.

[Lemireacle]

It's okay to make popcorn in the office whenever I feel like making popcorn!

[unbroken_chain]

wanna know what not to make in the office microwave???



a long time ago when I worked in the Corporate side of life, I worked with this woman - who would nuke this stuff up.. and I don't know what the deal was but it omitted a odor that literally made me ill... migraines and wretching. I had to leave the building.

I think this may be the reason I don't like it (at work). Plus the same microwave is used to make lunch (fish) and pop corn. And only cleaned out every 2 or 3 weeks.

I do not mind it out side of work. Just in the office it lingers.

what are you, the popcorn police?

[GoPlastic]

we have a no-popcorn-in-the-microwave rule after someone left the nukebox unattended and it set the bag on fire and nearly burned the library down.

i generally don't like popcorn anyway, so this doesn't impact the quality of life index here, at least for me.

but with popcorn being a relatively healthy snack, i can see it being popular in offices where it's allowed, especially by those looking to munch without ingesting too many calories.

No. I just want to know why some one in my office has Popcorn for breakfast every day.

you could always just ask them...that's what i'd do. "just out of curiosity..."

That is the thing, I have no idea who it is.

Plus there is also an occasional afternoon popcorn from a different group on our floor.

I like popcorn everywhere except where I do not have the option of having some. Then the smell just annoys me because they will and have not share.

[china cat]

happened just a few minutes ago - walking by faculty offices and smelled popcorn. yum.

[Eddie Z]

At a caterer's liquidation sale, I reluctantly bought a commercial popcorn maker. Having no room at home to store it, it came to the office. I make popcorn 2 or 3x a week. The thing is always full.

so make your own

[concert andy]

so make your own

I do not want to stink up the office.

[georgi]

As long as it's not burnt, I don't give a shit what they make in the microwave or toaster oven. There is nothing worse than burnt popcorn or toast drifting through the halls.

wanna bet?

[georgi]

My farts are awesome, so ya know.

[Java Time]

occupy office popcorn making...unless they are distributing it equally!!!

too many times many office workers receive maybe two or three popped kernels while the popcorn makers keep the majority to themselves!!!

you should perform a sit-in and circle the microwave to block the 1%er popcorn makers until they learn to distribute the popcorn evenly or at least share more of it to the 99%ers.

[Spidergawd]

Nice try, but your reputation precedes you.

[georgi]

Pssh. Just ask Rich.

[Spidergawd]

Oh I'm sure you're like Karen and it's all potpourri and glitter.

[Spidergawd]

As for me? Hot, steaming, vaporous death.

[Depends]

I like to pop in a bag of popcorn while I'm gettin' ready to watch Netflix at my desk.

[Slave Self Promoted]

my butt is like a bullhorn that gives not-quite-ample-enough warning that its' stench is about to strangle you, burn your nose hairs, and rape your sinuses.


it's cute.

"Pffffffffffftttt"

I also forgot that people cry when the smell goes away.

not that there's anything wrong with that

[georgi]

And okay, maybe Jenny doesn't fart like a man with a loose asshole. Hers are pretty bassy.

I will never forget the time she let one rip at our house in front of Rich, and he was just standing there like this:

He was baffled for sure.

[Slave Self Promoted]

i have no idea what you're talking about........


but yeah, that moment was priceless.

[Phishfolk]

You should have heard her after 2 days of eating my chili

[Slave Self Promoted]

if there were snow in the hills, we'd have died in an avalanche.

[SunshineDrummer]

Pssh. Just ask Rich.

I did. He went deathly pale and started twitching & mumbling something about eggs.

[SunshineDrummer]

Well there's your answer... too much pepper.

[In A Silent Way]

I'll be burning bags of popcorn out of spite when I move to my new office in fucking Danbury.

[gregoir]

I fucking love popcorn. I never make or eat any food at work though. I also don't go on the internet all day:funny1:

[Deadshow Dan]

I know a otherwise intelligent guy at the office I used to be at who decided he would nuke an egg for lunch.

 

But rather than placing the cracked open egg in an appropriate dish, he placed the full egg in the nuker.

 

KABOOM!

[hoagie]

No. I just want to know why some one in my office has Popcorn for breakfast every day.

Popcorn for breakfast is certainly healthier than a bowl of Kellogg's Corn Pops...

[In A Silent Way]

Any damned time I want. Sometimes I burn a bag just to add some atmosphere and ambience to fuckingDanbury.

[concert andy]

Goood for them.  Why does everyone in the office have to smell their breakfast everyday?

 

No one smells my muffin, toast or egg sandwich most mornings when I have breafast at my desk.

 

Taking other co workers in to account would be nice.  

 

PS.  On occasion go for it, but everyday?  come on?  I am sick of the smell.

 

PPS.  This still continues.
