i work with some spectacular idiots. i can’ t decide if the best comments are made by certain members of the editorial team or the sales team. in a modern capitalist society such as our own, WHY CHOOSE? and so i present a weekly round-up of the best comments overheard from editorial and sales both.

week of april 28 2008:
“israel’s not a muslim country. they are completely western.” – editorial
“are you using bio-oil? it’s supposed to be really good for stretch marks.” – editorial
“that is sooooo radical!” – sales
Overheard on Pape Avenue, north of Queen St.
One early thirty-something guy to another:
“Yeah, and then, next thing I know, I’m handcuffed naked on the floor playing Boggle… yeah Boggle, who plays Boggle?”
