Sometimes I think that we should put a video camera in our office at work(/school) and share our funniness with others. A great reality TV show would be a bunch of grad students avoiding work and hanging around talking. I would certainly watch it! The things we say are priceless, as far as I am concerned. We have actually started a quote book.
Today:
After walking in to my office to grab something, Grad Student #1 (GS1) says to GS2: Hello, GS2.
Because GS1 did not say hi to me, I mockingly say: Hello, GS1.
Labmate1 says to me: Why don't you ever say hi to me in a sexxy* voice?
Me: That was a sexxy voice??
Labmate1: Yeah!
Me: Man, labmate, you are easily turned on!
In the past:
After reading snippets from an email forward about what tree you are based on your birthday, Labmate2 wants to know what tree she is.
Me: You are a chestnut. You are a born diplomat, can be irritated easily, sensitive of others feelings, hard worker, sometimes acts superior, etc.
(female) Labmate2: That sounds just like me!
(male) Undergrad labmate, under his breath: Yeah, and you have spiky nuts.

I love when I have nothing to do around the lab and someone else is in the same boat. Some of the bonding is terrific. :-)
