Office Overhearsions™
Two coworkers at the printer on the other side of my cubicle wall:
Man: So how was your weekend?
Woman: I had a really kick ass weekend.
Man: Oh really?
Woman: Yeah.
Man: What'd you do?
Woman: Well, remember how I said I needed a dress?
Man: Oh yeah. That worked out for you then?
Woman: Yeah. I found a really amazing dress.
Man: Ah.
Woman: Now I want to wear it all the time.
Man: Are you going to wear it to work tomorrow?
Woman: I don't think it's really work-appropriate.
Man: Hey, let me be the judge of that. [laughter]
[I wonder what would happen if I threw a box of X-Acto blades over the wall.]

Tell them to get a room.
I like his response of "That worked out for you then?". It's like he is flirting but still in business-speak autopilot. Yes her needing a dress worked out for her great.
"I wonder what would happen if I threw a box of X-Acto blades over the wall."
Wait till tomorrow when she's wearing the dress.
Would it be a birthday's dress?
Wow... do you work at my comany? I hear the same inane crap at my job.
I wonder what would happen if I threw a box of X-Acto blades over the wall.
You'd either:
a) Erect a dam blocking off one small stream of stupidity, or
b) Ruin a perfectly good box of blades because people that inane usually make it through life completely unscathed.
I work for a the State and consider ending my own life by 10 am every single day.
