Conversations at Work
Coworker (CW): What the heck is that clicking sound?
Me (Me): Sorry, it's my pedometer.
CW: Why do you have a pedometer?
Me: Ah... it's part of my sex offender registration; I have to wear it. It gauges the frequency and intensity of my pedophilic thoughts. I thought it would explode the other day at the grocery when I saw the latest Teen Vogue cover. Phew!

Me: Oh yeah~ You definitely don't want to see inside my head right now.
CW: (sighs) This conversation is stupid.
Me: Hey, you started it.
