The board game ended up in the bin but JV (@jvdrean) and I decided we couldn't let the small figurines go!

Don't they look nice in their new life as office furniture ornament?

Last Friday ThomasE (@eveilleau) and Thibaut (@tcamberlin) decided to clean the office. Thomas used a paper towel to clean some dirt off office furniture. He then threw the towel at me. I used the dirty towel to "clean" his computer.

 

To which he retaliated by putting fish food on my keyboard.

 

So far, so good - nothing unexpected by our previous standards.

Things started going seriously wrong when Thomas uncovered... 3 packs of M&Ms.

Some context is needed here: each time we buy food for the office, about 20 small packs of M&Ms are included. Each time, about 2 days after the goods got in, there are no M&Ms left. This gives you an idea of how coveted they are. Thus, as soon as Thomas found them, a short struggle ensued which would trigger a series of unfortunate events. Here's how it all happened.

I ran for the M&Ms. Thomas proceeded to hide them in his pants in order to prevent us from eating them, then hid in the restroom. Upon trying to get the M&Ms out of his pants 2 packs broke, sending M&Ms all over the restroom.

     

I'm not sure how events unfolded from then on, but next thing M&Ms were all over JV's (@jvdrean) MacBookPro keyboard.

 

While he usually keeps himself out of office politics, JV couldn't give the outrage a free pass and he directed his wrath at Thomas' computer:

      

Well, at least the office is clean now!
