Dude, stop smiling, you use that joke every time you get into the elevator." "I stick with what works." "Whatever. Hey, I have a question about the email you sent earlier, talking about the new logos." "What about it?" "Why did you put ‘TM’ everytime you typed ‘Photoshop’?" "They said to." "Who?" "Adobe. They said that Photoshop is a trademark, and that it can’t be used as a noun or verb except in reference to the program. So I trademark it just to be safe." "Good, ‘cause I forwarded them the last email you sent without the trademark." "…" "Just kidding, man! It’s not like they’re going to come after you." "Think not? First time a lawyer gets bored he’s going to Google it and nail the first person he comes across…that won’t be me." "Is that trademarked?" "What?" "Google." "Very funny. But now that you mention it, I bet it will be after their IPO. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />ing corps. Anyway, you remember what they did to my friend Jimbo, right?" "Man, he shot a customer’s testicles off! He robbed the family jewels! The rancheros lost their juevos!" "Self-defense used to be a valid defense in this country. After that, I’m not taking anything for granted." "…" "…" "You ever gotten a ticket?" "No." "Speeding?" "Umm, no." "Never had an insurance lapse?" "Yeah, I did once. Didn’t drive my car for 2 months." "What!? How’d you get to work?" "Bus." "Dude, the bus doesn’t come anywhere near here." "Bus and rickshaw." "…" "What? You don’t remember the rickshaw service? Started during the tech boom, I think Chinatown got richer off the bubble than the Emerald Towers did." "You’re so full of it, dude." "Ask anyone!" "…" "…" "How’d you get the TM to superscript in the email?" "Not that again!" "What!? I didn’t know you could format that way!" "This is the longest go*d*** elevator ride I’ve ever been on." "Shoulda got off at thirteen."   </blockquote>
