and if you wanna cry, make sure that they never see it
or even better yet, block it out and never feel it
zorian as a preview of my fav song - boys will be bugs by cavetown. this song means a lot to me, and i think it’s so relatable for zorian :(

What’s it like working in a male-dominated environment where everyone is between the ages of 17 & 24? I’m so glad you asked.
“Hey, how do I professionally tell [district manager] this ain’t it, Chief?” - my 19yr old site manager
“Bug race. Bug race. Bug race. Bug race.” - this chant went on for 40 minutes while they scoured for bugs to race in a maze they’d built
“Is my [literally anything] supposed to do this? {proceeds to show themselves doing something that they definitely should not be able to do} It kinda hurts when I do.”
[random screaming]
“What would happen if I ate this?”
{new guy tries to be chivalrous and hold the door for me} “dude, why’d you do that?”
“Because gentlemen hold the doors for ladies?”
“Man, she ain’t a lady. She’s Maggie. Doesn’t count.”
“Pulp fiction isn’t even a good movie.” - this got me kicked out of the group chat for three weeks
In the group chat: [monkey meme] [monkey gif] [monkey stock photo] [monkey trivia fact] [monkey video] [link to monkey video on YouTube] “munky munky”
“Maggie, my girl is mad at me and I can’t figure out why.”
“are you asking her bc she’s a girl?”
“No dude, I’m asking her bc she’s smarter than us.”
“I don’t think I’m straight. Have you seen Ryan Reynolds? Yeah… I don’t know anymore.”
“Did you know the new soap dyes your hands Barbie pink?” [holds up bright pink hands] cause I just found out!”
[more on the previous one] “bro that’s not Barbie pink, that’s fuschia!”
“No it’s not!” {argues back and forth before new guy joins in}
“I think it’s more of a periwinkle.”
“Bro, periwinkle is a purple. Have you never looked at a color before in your life?”
[random projectile flies past my head] “shit! Incoming!”
[random push-up contest]
“Do you think my dog knows I would die for her?”
“You guys know when [vague hand movement] just kinda [even vaguer hand movement] and you just [weird and vague hand movement]?”
“Bro, yes.”
“What were you listening to in your car when I pulled up?” [proudly] “the cheetah girls, bro!”
“Do you think I could take a badger in a fight?”
[random period of absolute silence that either lasts forever or is ended by a random scream]
[someone finds a stick] “you shall not pass”
“You are what you eat, right?”
“Bro what? We’re talking about baseball.”
After the entire staff had heard about me making friendship bracelets for the Taylor Swift concert, I had 4 (out of 6) of them ask me to make them one.
“Do you ever just [like two minutes of complete silence], ya know?”
“I don’t think meeting God could even compete, dude.” - I have no context for this statement
“Sometimes, I just [heavy sigh] and sometimes it’s enough.”
“I need new songs to scream in my car.” [shows them Cruel Summer and DBATC by Taylor Swift] “Dude, make me a playlist. I need more songs like these!”
[loud clattering] “Oh shit. Don’t tell, [manager].”
Manager : “what’d you break?”
“Who decided our company mascot should be a pigeon?”
Manager gives vague answer about corporate and how we’re a car wash so it makes sense.
“Well, they’re dumb. I think our mascot should be a racecar.”
“Do you think I would get workers comp if I had a mental breakdown?”
“No.”
“Damn. Imma reschedule it for my day off then. Hey, [manager], can I have two days off back to back next week?”
“Do I get commission for the customers I scare away?”
“That’s the opposite of how commission works.”
“Well, I’m up to three today.”
[random old guy makes a comment about how women shouldn’t try to do a man’s job] “dude, acting like a dick doesn’t make yours any bigger.”
“Does anyone wanna watch Barbie’s Princess and the Pauper with me on Tuesday?” [everyone said yes] - we’re going to see the new Barbie movie together for “team bonding”
“Did you know that if you do this [proceeds to do some weird flippy thing that makes him fall], you can bruise all your ribs at the same time?”
After seeing a video of Taylor Swift diving into the stage at the Eras Tour : “dude, it’s a really good thing she’s a singer and not a swimmer because that was a bellyflop.”
“Wait. Is Hozier a lesbian?” - I have no context for this question
“If I was a worm, you guys would still play COD with me right?”
“No. We’d lose.”
“We could team up against him and beat his worm-ass!”
“Shit yeah! Then yes.”
[random dancing]
“I wanna jump in that puddle…”
“then jump in it?”
“Ok bet” [spends the last five minutes of his shift splashing in a mud puddle]
“Dude, my [12 year old] sister just got dumped by her boyfriend, what do I do?”
“Take her on a date, dude. I take my sisters out all the time because they should know how a dude should treat them.”
[random trauma dumping] “but yeah, lmao, right?”
Me: [chillin] [randomly gets picked up and carried] - this is an action I have approved, it is both hilarious and fun
“Don’t be weird about it, bro.”
“I’m not gunna be weird about it, bro.” [proceeds to be absolutely weird about it]
“What’s your favorite candy?” [tells them] [receives a two pound bag of my favorite candy the next day] “I’m sorry I yelled at you last week.”
[after he was invited to a party with drugs & alcohol] “My therapist said I shouldn’t do that anymore. It’s shit for my mental health.”
“Okay, bro. We can just play COD instead.”
[randomly tackling each other in the grass]
“Dude, I love you so much, bro. You’re an awesome guy to be friends with.” [proceeds to smack each other back and forth for like three minutes straight]
[complaining about how his seven-month-old is going through a sleep regression and he hasn’t slept more than two hours in a week] “dude, that sucks. I can ask my mom for tips, if you want?”
[random video clip sent in group chat] “wait, Maggie don’t watch that” [watches it anyways] “bro, that’s a video of you and your cat playing peek-a-boo, why couldn’t I watch that?” - I never got a response
[quiet giggling] manager: “what are you doing?”
“Nothing!” - they were hiding his clipboard
“Bro, Taylor Swift probably wrote a song about it.”
“That was literally so homophobic, it’s homoerotic.”
[in the group chat] “Y’all, I have news.” [all but one person responds asking about it] “I wanna wait until everyone responds” [four hours later, the last person responds asking about it] [ten minutes of silence] “oh, yeah. I’m gay.” - this man has been out for over a decade. Everyone already knew. This was not news.
[random tiktok link] [random tiktok link] [random tiktok link]
“Does anyone know how to use epilepsy?”
“Epilepsy? The seizure thing?”
“No the three dots.”
“Bro, that’s ellipsis.”
“I thought that was the exercise machine.”
“No, that’s an elliptical.” - I know this is a tiktok trend now, but this entire conversation was dead serious
“Do I need to go to the hospital if I got bit by a squirrel?” [everyone yells at him to go to the ER] [someone asks how he got bit by a squirrel] “I wanted to know if they were as fluffy as they look.” - he has confirmed that they are, indeed, as fluffy as they look but you most certainly should never attempt to pet a squirrel
“Bro look at this” [picture of something brutal and gory] “isn’t that cool?”
“I think I could be a professional driver.”
“Didn’t you break your axel by hitting a curb?”
“That doesn’t mean I can’t drive.”

Hi joe!! how did you and bugbo meet? Also, how did you feel when you were able to see bugbo again after the war?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Joe genuinely yapping out the whole backstory.
Anyways an note I’d like to add, a few notes actually
1: Joe can talk for only a few hours a day, then he must resort to writing. If he yells then his time is shortened even more.
2: Yes the Vietnam war was actually aired live on TV, it was horrific,
And my last note is that all questions will be answered, if someone is still waiting to get questions answered then they will get when it’s their turn
I promise no questions will go unanswered 💛:D thank you

I’m bored and the guys at work are being goofy so here’s a list of no context things I’ve heard from The Boys™ recently.
“Call me a fake lesbian but I don’t really like girl in red. Clairo? Love. WILLOW? Besties. Hayley Kiyoko? Lesbian Jesus. But Girl in Red and I don’t really vibe. Sorry.”
“Maybe I’m losing my mind, but I wanna bite that truck.”
“Aye, watch your language.” “Will it do a flip?” “What?” “Watch it’s gunna do a flip!” [flips manager off]
“Have y’all heard about the Zuckerberg V. Musk fight? Okay let’s debate. Kanye or Swift, who would win? Actually. That wouldn’t be fair, Kanye never stood a chance. Okay. Obama or Trump? Fists only, no weapons.”
“Do you ever wonder if grass can feel? Like. What if it screams on a frequency I can’t hear every time I step on it? What if the fresh mowed grass smell is actually grass tears and blood?”
“I know we all agreed, but…”
“If lightning struck me right now, would y’all try to save me?”
“Sometimes I’m like ‘Hozier is a god.’ And sometimes I’m like ‘Hozier is just some guy.’”
“Someone threw away a black American Express card. Can I keep it? It’s not expired.”
“I’m not allowed to set off fireworks anymore. It’s not my fault I didn’t know they were actual explosions that could burn a house down. No, this wasn’t when I was a kid, this was like three months ago.”
“What do you think the sky tastes like?”
“When I was twelve, my mom hit me with her car backing out of the driveway and she didn’t even take me to the hospital. I think I broke my arm and I’m pretty sure that’s why my wrist does this. [shows wrist making clicking noise when he rolls it]”
“Okay. But. What if. Nope wait, I think that’s illegal.”
“God customers are stupid. Are you closed?? No lady, the sign says we’re closed because we’re open. It makes me want to eat a car battery.”
“If you could only eat one bug for the rest of your life, what would it be?”
“What are y’all’s opinions on potato flavored chewing gum?”
“Can I start bringing my dog to work?”
“Can I break this? I know it’s already broken, I want to break it more.”
“I’m a simple man. I like when things go boom. That doesn’t mean I started the fire.”
“Sometimes I like to take a bath and pretend I’m a little potato getting boiled to make some mashed potatoes.”
“Why can’t I be a duck? Why do I have to be a person?”
“But if I just punch him in the face, I don’t have to worry about him being mean anymore.”
“Maggie. Maggie. Maggie. Maggie. Maggie. Maggie. Maggie. Mag - okay I’m bored now.”
“If I was a rock, I think I’d be a big blue smooth shiny rock. What rock would you be?”
“I have an announcement to make. Stalactites and stalagmites. That is all. Carry on.”
“Sorry, was that gay?”
“I think being an adult is all about being nice to yourself. And taxes, maybe.”
“Why does the dirt over here taste saltier than the dirt by the flowers?”
“No. If I’m not asking him about Taylor Swift, what makes you think I’d ask him about Gracie Abrams?”
“Can I make a list of everyone’s red flags?” “Only if you list their green flags too.”
“I had to change your contact name to Charles. I don’t know why Charles, I just panicked and picked the first name I could think of.”
“Sometimes I forget she’s your mom.” “She’s not my mom. Do you think she’s my mom?” “Not anymore.”
“God. Everyone wants to be Donna but no one wants to be Rachel. No one is Donna except Donna. Everyone else is Rachel. Or they’re Harold.” (Someone please tell me what this means, I have no idea what he’s talking about)
“Why do crickets taste like that?”
“Oh to be a silly little horse in a silly little field being taken care of by a silly little person I could crush like a bug beneath my silly little hooves.”
“Tell me more, tell me more, like does he have a car?”
“The world went to hell when autopsies started testing for poison. Women just can’t poison their husbands anymore. That was the true beginning of the downfall of society.”
“What happens if someone asks to take their motorcycle through the carwash?”
“You don’t have to file customer complaints if you eat the paper they’re written on.”
“And if I said I still haven’t forgiven John Wilkes Booth, what would you say?”
“I don’t say this lightly, but the Pedro Pascual edits on tiktok have confused me sexually.”
“I just pulled a dead bird out of some guy’s grill. Anyone hungry?”
“Taylor Swift might have forgiven him but that doesn’t mean I have to!”
“Why aren’t we allowed to have a company pet? Firefighters get Dalmatians, we should be allowed like. A fish or something.”
“I dreamt that I came to work yesterday and worked an entire shift, is there any way I can get that added to my pay?”
“My girlfriend is mad at me because I keep playing I’m Just Ken and telling her she’s Kenough.”
“Can we close early on October the thirteenth? Oh, no reason… On a completely unrelated note: what should I wear to the Eras Tour movie?”
“If my grandmother confessed to murdering my grandfather but it happened in like the eighties, do I have to report it? Hypothetically, of course.”
“Sometimes a man just needs to cry to mirrorball and tolerate it in his car. Sometimes he just needs to scream Death by A Thousand Cuts. Sometimes…”
“I accidentally just called a customer Mom and she gave me her phone number, what do I do?”
“It’s only blasphemy if you get caught. Do you really think God has time to listen to everything every single person says?”
“Sometimes I wish I was a woman but then I remember this is America and I thank the stars that I’m not. Sorry, Maggie.”
“Why is it so hard to find a stupidly rich woman searching for a trophy husband?”
“Do you think I could walk through the carwash instead of taking a shower?”
[after a guy’s day off] “I missed you guys yesterday. I wish I never had to leave.”
“My sister told me I was adopted and my mom got mad because she wasn’t supposed to but like. My parents are white. I’m black. I already knew.”
“I just had a child quote Revelations at me because I told him he shouldn’t drink the glass cleaner.”
“I forgot my shoes. Also, I just stepped in glass in the parking lot, someone should really clean that up.”
“I think everyone should be allowed to kill someone if they have a really good reason. I would kill the guy that called my sister a bitch because she didn’t want to sleep with him. Who would you kill?”
“Is… is that… not… normal?” [hint: it was not.]
“I stand with Sansa - I mean Sophie Turner.”
“I still don’t understand why I’m not allowed to punch customers in the mouth for being assholes to Maggie and Dru.”
“What kind of tree do you think I am?”
“Apparently I was supposed to listen to the new Olivia Rodrigo album with my girlfriend and now she’s upset with me for listening to it with y’all first.”
“Every night, I go to sleep and every morning, I wake up. How do I stop this cycle?”
