Early Love of Office Supplies
Okay, did this early attraction develop into a love of Office Max?
Read the whole story.This should come as no surprise - I was a quirky kid. Hell, I'm a quirky adult. When I was around 11 or 12, while most kids were entertaining themselves by collecting baseball cards or playing video games (although truth be told, I spent a lot of time in the local arcades), I developed a love of office supplies.

LOL! Thanks for posting this (comments and all)! I thought I was the only one who grew up lusting after legal pads. Chris's rant is hysterical. I'm glad he gave you permission to keep his post in exchange for posting all that drama. This is lots better than pets.blogcarnival.com.
Blog On! Christine

Hi! I run my company's HR department! I have some 200 people, and I get to pick our office supply vendor! We use Office Max! Chris is a friend of mine!
I'll give you one guess as to how this movie ends.
Here's a couple of questions to help you out. Using published material without permission for advertising purposes? How many companies would choose to work with unethical vendors like yourselves?

Uh- that's a friend of mine whose work you stole.
One more customer down the drain...

Hi there. I've been reading your site for, oh, about 0.947 seconds and I've gotta say, I love what I see so far...because its mine. Not only is it mine but my own readers as well. You didn't even differentiate between the original post and some of the many fine comments from my readers. That makes you about as smart as your average head of lettuce as well as an asshat. I, over at www.yoursorryspammingasssucksdonkeyballs.com take this blogging thing fairly serious so I was less than pleased when I found the trackback yoursorryspammingass left linked to this clusterfuck of a site. Now, if your parents were cruel enough to grace you with the unfortunate moniker of Office Max, and you have, quite understandably, ended up with such a massive fixation on office supplies that you felt the need to share this condition with the world in blog form, well, for that I'm sorry on so many different levels. If, however, you're just a tool for the corporate man, then please - and I mean this with all due respect - fuck yourself and the shopping cart and color toner cartriges you rode in on.
You see, Max, I, like many of my fellow bloggers, have had, over the last couple years, to turn myself into a one man, spam fighting machine with powers usually reserved for superheroes. Granted, that would make for a really lame comic book but its the truth. I am battling the forces of spam on all sides. So, on that level, what you're doing here really just flat-out pisses me off. But there's a whole other level, my little penthouse of pissedoffitude. How does one reach that level? Well, you take someone's work and attempt to make it your own. That's just wrong, like a 500 pound transgendered hooker. There's no way there's anything right about that.
I'd suggest you remove my entry from your site. Although I'm willing to make compromise. You leave my comment up here and you can hang onto my little ride through the amusement park of my personal neuroses I posted about your precious office supplies.
Cactus, Out!
