Adina

 
Adina is a senior developer in the team at my work. She describes herself in three words as true, gothic and special. Indeed, she is special enough for the worst storm in a month to happen in the exact twenty minutes window she is outside from work to home. When it comes to the gothic aspect, she likes the black color (I know, black is not exactly a color, it's in fact the absence of it) and she likes talking about death. As of the true emo part, that probably is hidden deep inside her soul. Usually we experience her hysterical joy when things get ugly, blunt dismissal when she's sleepy after a great and sometimes hot night full of alcohol, subtle actions against the system, smart jokes about everything that is not beyond the vanishing point of the horizon and singing performances that would make a baby cry.
Somehow I understand the context of her life from what she shares about herself, after trimming out the stories of her great awareness at the early age of two, but of course without the grained details that anyone in his right mind will stay out. What I can say from the perspective of two desks to the left, is that her sorrow is perfectly justified and her accomplishments admirable, even if there is place for better and happier. At first you wouldn't think that she's so emotional and passionate, but she really is, although those moments are cut short in the presence of others.
If voices tell you that you’re normal, then it would be nice to stop swearing and leave a hysterical comment exacerbating the lack of talent of this silent monkey, unless you have died before you felt...

ROFLYSST

Bill Bailey with the funny Internet Love Song,
Part of the Dandelion Mind show.

Whilst vaguely watching you nibble your sandwich,
I was gripped by an overwhelming sense of utter futility.
You twitter "Oh my God I'm having a sandwich" like it's thrilling
Four seconds later...
Nineteen followers twitter "What filling?"
One of them is me, I say "Is it carrot and hummus?"
You say "Wow, there must be a special connection between us"
We meet from a tweet
But it's not that appealing
Because unlike Lionel Richie
We're not dancing on the ceiling
I caress you like a curious wasp
You embrace me like a spiteful pheasant
It's quite unpleasant
Aww, my eye
And then you shit on my head
Do we really love?
Do we really care?
Let's sort this out with an online questionnaire
But in the box marked "Do you really wanna be with me?"
We both clicked...
Neither agree nor disagree
I don't hate you, it's not fate
It's just we're not that great
I don't dislike you, I just unlike you
FYI (For your information)
LOL (I am not laughing out loud)
LMAO (Or even laughing my arse off)
ROFLYSST (Or even R-O-F-L-Y-S-S-T)
... Rolling on the floor laughing yet somehow still typing!
