Help please
First thing this AM, in walks Flanders.
"I don't mean to be a perpetual complainer...
Okay at this point does it matter what he said? Could he follow that with anything that wouldn't suck? I suppose he could follow it with 'my Farrah Fawcett Majors collection is full, do you want this vintage mint poster?
But Flanders being Flanders followed it with....wait for it..... "the cleaning crew is leaving too many lights on at night'
The obvious question is WHO GIVES A SHIT? A second question might be why tell me about it?
I know Flanders has no life between Harry Potter books, and I also know that Flanders doesn't do much that could be described as work, but you'd think he'd at least masturbate to pass the time.
I'm not sure what I do in my life that keeps me from worrying about the light being left on, but I'm pretty sure it has to do with internet porn sites.
I've listened to be banana phone ten times in an effort to recover.

After closely following the Flanders saga for many months now, I'm surprised you haven't exploded at him yet. You have way, way, way more patience than me. I’d go so far to say that Robert Minter is a humanitarian. John_Clarke, however, is a bit of an asshole.
Take this dickhead named "Chad" from years back, who used to come in my office every single morning and ask to borrow my newspaper. Never mind the fact that I have to read the newspaper as part of my job and I purchased one every morning because I didn't want to take the office copy. Never mind the fact he could have read it on the internet for free (I had to have the hardcopy of stories for my files and the news site didn't update as often back then.) Never mind the fact that when Chad asked for the paper, he realized I was reluctant to give it up. Picking up on this, Chad offers to buy me McDonald's breakfast to repay me for taking my paper, a ludicrous proposal that also disgusted me. I politely declined. So this goes on for about three more months before I finally say: "DO YOU HAVE 50 CENTS? PLEASE BUY YOUR OWN PAPER!!" After that explosion, I never had to talk or interact with Chad again. But the tradeoff was another sort of tenseness between co-workers who don't speak. I happily accepted that.
I have tolerated him, in part to prevent office tension, and in part out of pity, but he is due for the speech from Jules;
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
