Having an office mate that listens to house/dance music, of course.
He's not a bad guy, really. Kinda acts/looks like someone you might see in the cast of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, though. Hair gel, very clean shaven, tan, and a predilection for jeans that have bleached-out, "worn" areas on the thighs. That sort of thing. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Update: In case I wasn't totally clear, my new office mate is completely straight. He's quite a hit with the ladies at work apparently. I was only trying to describe him, not relate anything about his sexual preferences. He's not gay, just stylish. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Heh heh... That ranks right up there with my chica Carmen and her Radio Latino...

(PS- Don't drop the soap, if you know what I mean. Just in case.)

How about the sphincterally melodious (or was it malodorous? both i think) Chip Doggy Dogg -- granted, never had to share an enclosed space smaller than an office building with him, but sometimes, it wasn't enough...
Posted by bhallzak at September 9, 2003 9:49 PMBhallzak has something there: you can't turn down a smell. Having said that, I'd rather smell him than listen to Eminem. Eminem has to be the worst shit ever labeled as music. I'd rather work from home and be forced to listen to my neighbor's house's foundation being jackhammered right outside my office window that listen to Eminem.
Since I'm not familiar with 99% of the songs he plays, I've been googling the lyrics to see who they are from (assuming I can understand the lyrics; some songs are rather "urban" and I have trouble understanding the dialect of English they are trying to sing in). Imagine my joy to find out that I've been listening to likes of Ludicris and Stagga Lee and Justin Timberlake. I don't want to come off as a snob or anything, but for crying out loud? Justin mother-grabbin' Timberlake?!? Don't you have to be a 14 year old girl to listen to that nonsense?
Just fucking kill me now.
