What does France have to do with this? Was the desk made in ancient Europe?

I've never seen anyone get mad because someone put their feet on the desk in their own office. Maybe your crowd is a little too tightly wound.

To be fair though. It's a little bit discomforting when the other guy is wearing flip flops though.

But that's just how we roll...

It was made in Europe, but not ancient Europe. It was made from wood taken from an abandoned British ship. The desk was named after the ship the timbers were salvaged from, but the exact name escapes me. Resolve?

If a desk made out of wood from a warship can't withstand the mighty blow of someone's heel resting on it, we probably need to buy a higher class of antique desk.

Mrs. Obama? I don't get it.

In reference to the post of yours that I quoted, I thought you were mangling the English language.

Oh, I see you made reference to a shopping trip elsewhere...

Damn woman. All she does is spend when she should be cleaning up the mess Obama made by resting his feet on his desk.

In the jumbo-size sundae of fail that is Virus trying to find something legitimate to ***** about here, I think perhaps the cherry on top is the fact that, when self-censoring, he chose to omit the "h" in asshole while leaving the word "ass" complete.

What do you think about FDR's ordered modification, Varrus? Pretty horrendous, isn't it, to modify an antique in such a way? I, for one, am mortified.

I'd rather be homeless than work a job where the quality of my being is judged by how shiny and expensive my shoes are.

Yeah, but if a dude is just admiring my heels, he's obviously gay. And where am I going to get with that?

Varrus,

Did you hear that Obama's new dog actually poops on the White House lawn? Can you believe the absurdity? What is this country coming to? Next thing you know the people will be using the toilets in the house, even. Doesn't he know that the next president will have to sit bare assed on the same piece of furniture? Shameful. You know, how someone treats their things is the most important judge of their character. sh*tting on stuff has to be the lowest of the low.

Letting someone clean the stuff you sh*t on has to be even lower, right?

I wonder if they subscribe to the "If it's brown, flush it down" mantra?

No, "white collar folks" don't find these things sacrosanct. Successful people care much more about the content of their appointments than the meaningless trivialities. The people who care about those things are the bureaucratic paper pushers, who's jobs are so meaningless and unimportant that they have sublimated their focus toward trivialities rather than the content of their work.

I was going to add something witty, but my brain just shutdown on me. All I can say is so what to the OP... Bush, Clinton, Bush II, Carter, and Nixon all did it too.... Clinton used it for other things as well.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! funny post.

Thing is, if I put my feet up on the desk at work I would get frowned at, even if I was sealing a million pound deal. If I put my feet up on the desk at home my wife would staple my ******** to my forehead and chop my feet of for good measure.

Anyway, its a desk, a pretty F-ugly desk as well. It also carries memories of some pretty atrocious decisions and some filthy stains to boot. Why dont we all chip in and get the White House a stylish Â£65.99 desk from Ikea, with red trim and genuine wobble. Hey we could even have some change left over for a gaudy pink pen pot and an eraser as well.

Yeah I can see it now, signing a peace treaty with his BIC pen sat at his bargain basement IKEA desk whilst sitting on a squeaky wooden chair. I find that people work harder when they are not as comfy.

lol

If I was that hen-pecked at both home and work, I'd spend a lot of time in my car.
