An Explanation would Spoil the Fun...

Sometimes just letting people's imagination run wild is almost too much fun. I love to give someone just enough (true) information, preferably full of inuendo, to get their attention and get their mind working overtime and see where it leads. I don't offer to explain the circumstances, they're usually much more mundane than what people will dream up if left to their imagination. Let me give you an example of what I mean.

I clocked in for work tonight buck naked, something I do quite often (probably at least half the time).

No, I don't work from home.


Anybody else have an example?

[in a droll, bored voice]
"Hello, helpdesk, Can you give me your Employee Identification Number?"
"thank you, can you give me your extension?"
"Thank you, can you give me your cost center please?"
"Thank you, can you give me your Visa or Mastercard number as well as your PIN number, your home address, time and dates when you'll be out of the house for more than two hours and the codes for any security system you may have?... oh and please keep pets locked up and secured at those aforementioned times."

strippers usually come to work clothed because their job is to REMOVE their clothes.

I say Nude Model.

either that or a bachlor who forgot laundry day...

That's thinking...

TLP says s/he doesn't work from home... maybe s/he sleeps at work...

It may seem that way, but the surface of manure pits never freeze solid enough to support the weight of a running teenager.

Ahh... so removing the weight of clothes enables TLP to run on the frozen manure pits?

It's an interesting theory and one we should probably test. *nod*

If not, it saves him from getting his clothes cleaned.

The speculation proves my point. But as I said, if I was to explain it, it would spoil the fun.

you all are entirely missing this, let's examine this sentence:

I clocked in for work tonight buck naked, something I do quite often (probably at least half the time).

He didn't say naked, he said buck naked. He went into work, buck naked.

He went into work, with a naked buck. And a buck, of course, is a kind of deer. But as deers rarely wear clothing, we can presume that this was just a normal deer, and the naked aspect was merely to cause some confusion.

Thus we know he works, at night, with some kind of deer. With that information, the answer becomes obvious.

He's Santa Clause.

And you can take out the word 'buck' from my statement and it'll still be true...

I speculate that TLP works alone on a rather mundane night shift, and clocks in naked to make the whole thing seem less boring.

The time clock is in the changerooms. as
You have specific clothes you have to wear at work.
You ride to work.
This requires a shower at work.
Login while naked...

Makes perfect, logical and boring sense :D

Exciting? Yes.

Bad for the shoes? Definitely.

Great way to infuriate a parent? And how! :p
