August is still a few days away, but schedule is uncertain early in the week and I don't want to overlook it.
As usual, if you recall something I omitted, feel free to add it.
Some entries are edited for clarity or brevity.

From “Friday OT: The Water Cooler”
@Angie: What are things people do in the workplace that drive you insane?
@Doc: Ask me work questions when I’m busy posting on CF.
From: “Heads up: OTN, Albums of 1979”
@dirtyninety: I will not post my choice...but it might have Olivia Newton-John on the cover.

From “Tournament team potential”
(Discussion of ISU’s expectations for 2019-20)
@CascadeClone: Chemistry, man. It's not just a horrible experience in Gilman.
From “R.I.P. Rip Torn”
@coolerifyoudid: I opened the thread, assuming it was about Rip Taylor. I thought, damn, I thought he died decades ago ... realized I was thinking of the wrong Rip. I Googled “Rip Taylor” and was amazed — he’s still alive. Then I realized, I probably shouldn't write eulogies.
From “Veterinarian suicide rates”
@BillyClone: My daughter attends dental school. During the admission process, the school told prospective students about higher-than-average suicide rates in the dental profession … I asked if it that’s because dentists are always down in the mouth.

From “KU selling alcohol at games”
@BillBrasky4Cy: I'm sure there are dozens of KU fans who are really excited about this.
From “Properly eating corn on the cob”
(numerous good ones from that thread, posting only one exchange)
@discydisc: Making fun of eating disorders is NOT ok...unless it's referencing Nate Stanley.
