someone printed out a painting of the Continental Congress and put it on the breakroom chalkboard at my museum, with the caption "what's going on here? wrong answers only!"
current answers include:
"auditions for Hamilton"
"hot girl summer" (mine)
"me and the girls drafting a text to my crush"
"planning their Barbenheimer movie night"
"the Tennis Court Oath"
"trying to decide who will take the One Ring to Mordor"
"hanging out at an old-school Pizza Hut"
"roll for initiative"
"Elon Musk renaming Twitter to X"

Adventures in Librarian-ing
A few weeks before the end of the school year the Grade 5s in one of the classes that I supervise at lunch pulled me over to their classroom library to show me what they'd done:
"We organized the classroom library the way you organize the library! :D"
Tumblr media
Here are some of the genre signs I use:

Going through my bday sale reports so I can do all the royalties reporting for my collaborators and 1) thank you all so much for the support! You made my Feb really killer and I'm glad you got lots of cool pose refs and 2) the amount of people who saw "40% off!" and instead chose to just... pay more than the retail price? Y'all. ♥

What’s it like working in a male-dominated environment where everyone is between the ages of 17 & 24? I’m so glad you asked.
“Hey, how do I professionally tell [district manager] this ain’t it, Chief?” - my 19yr old site manager
“Bug race. Bug race. Bug race. Bug race.” - this chant went on for 40 minutes while they scoured for bugs to race in a maze they’d built
“Is my [literally anything] supposed to do this? {proceeds to show themselves doing something that they definitely should not be able to do} It kinda hurts when I do.”
[random screaming]
“What would happen if I ate this?”
{new guy tries to be chivalrous and hold the door for me} “dude, why’d you do that?”
“Because gentlemen hold the doors for ladies?”
“Man, she ain’t a lady. She’s Maggie. Doesn’t count.”
“Pulp fiction isn’t even a good movie.” - this got me kicked out of the group chat for three weeks
In the group chat: [monkey meme] [monkey gif] [monkey stock photo] [monkey trivia fact] [monkey video] [link to monkey video on YouTube] “munky munky”
“Maggie, my girl is mad at me and I can’t figure out why.”
“are you asking her bc she’s a girl?”
“No dude, I’m asking her bc she’s smarter than us.”
“I don’t think I’m straight. Have you seen Ryan Reynolds? Yeah… I don’t know anymore.”
“Did you know the new soap dyes your hands Barbie pink?” [holds up bright pink hands] cause I just found out!”
[more on the previous one] “bro that’s not Barbie pink, that’s fuschia!”
“No it’s not!” {argues back and forth before new guy joins in}
“I think it’s more of a periwinkle.”
“Bro, periwinkle is a purple. Have you never looked at a color before in your life?”
[random projectile flies past my head] “shit! Incoming!”
[random push-up contest]
“Do you think my dog knows I would die for her?”
“You guys know when [vague hand movement] just kinda [even vaguer hand movement] and you just [weird and vague hand movement]?”
“Bro, yes.”
“What were you listening to in your car when I pulled up?” [proudly] “the cheetah girls, bro!”
“Do you think I could take a badger in a fight?”
[random period of absolute silence that either lasts forever or is ended by a random scream]
[someone finds a stick] “you shall not pass”
“You are what you eat, right?”
“Bro what? We’re talking about baseball.”
After the entire staff had heard about me making friendship bracelets for the Taylor Swift concert, I had 4 (out of 6) of them ask me to make them one.
“Do you ever just [like two minutes of complete silence], ya know?”
“I don’t think meeting God could even compete, dude.” - I have no context for this statement
“Sometimes, I just [heavy sigh] and sometimes it’s enough.”
“I need new songs to scream in my car.” [shows them Cruel Summer and DBATC by Taylor Swift] “Dude, make me a playlist. I need more songs like these!”
[loud clattering] “Oh shit. Don’t tell, [manager].”
Manager : “what’d you break?”
“Who decided our company mascot should be a pigeon?”
Manager gives vague answer about corporate and how we’re a car wash so it makes sense.
“Well, they’re dumb. I think our mascot should be a racecar.”
“Do you think I would get workers comp if I had a mental breakdown?”
“No.”
“Damn. Imma reschedule it for my day off then. Hey, [manager], can I have two days off back to back next week?”
“Do I get commission for the customers I scare away?”
“That’s the opposite of how commission works.”
“Well, I’m up to three today.”
[random old guy makes a comment about how women shouldn’t try to do a man’s job] “dude, acting like a dick doesn’t make yours any bigger.”
“Does anyone wanna watch Barbie’s Princess and the Pauper with me on Tuesday?” [everyone said yes] - we’re going to see the new Barbie movie together for “team bonding”
“Did you know that if you do this [proceeds to do some weird flippy thing that makes him fall], you can bruise all your ribs at the same time?”
After seeing a video of Taylor Swift diving into the stage at the Eras Tour : “dude, it’s a really good thing she’s a singer and not a swimmer because that was a bellyflop.”
“Wait. Is Hozier a lesbian?” - I have no context for this question
“If I was a worm, you guys would still play COD with me right?”
“No. We’d lose.”
“We could team up against him and beat his worm-ass!”
“Shit yeah! Then yes.”
[random dancing]
“I wanna jump in that puddle…”
“then jump in it?”
“Ok bet” [spends the last five minutes of his shift splashing in a mud puddle]
“Dude, my [12 year old] sister just got dumped by her boyfriend, what do I do?”
“Take her on a date, dude. I take my sisters out all the time because they should know how a dude should treat them.”
[random trauma dumping] “but yeah, lmao, right?”
Me: [chillin] [randomly gets picked up and carried] - this is an action I have approved, it is both hilarious and fun
“Don’t be weird about it, bro.”
“I’m not gunna be weird about it, bro.” [proceeds to be absolutely weird about it]
“What’s your favorite candy?” [tells them] [receives a two pound bag of my favorite candy the next day] “I’m sorry I yelled at you last week.”
[after he was invited to a party with drugs & alcohol] “My therapist said I shouldn’t do that anymore. It’s shit for my mental health.”
“Okay, bro. We can just play COD instead.”
[randomly tackling each other in the grass]
“Dude, I love you so much, bro. You’re an awesome guy to be friends with.” [proceeds to smack each other back and forth for like three minutes straight]
[complaining about how his seven-month-old is going through a sleep regression and he hasn’t slept more than two hours in a week] “dude, that sucks. I can ask my mom for tips, if you want?”
[random video clip sent in group chat] “wait, Maggie don’t watch that” [watches it anyways] “bro, that’s a video of you and your cat playing peek-a-boo, why couldn’t I watch that?” - I never got a response
[quiet giggling] manager: “what are you doing?”
“Nothing!” - they were hiding his clipboard
“Bro, Taylor Swift probably wrote a song about it.”
“That was literally so homophobic, it’s homoerotic.”
[in the group chat] “Y’all, I have news.” [all but one person responds asking about it] “I wanna wait until everyone responds” [four hours later, the last person responds asking about it] [ten minutes of silence] “oh, yeah. I’m gay.” - this man has been out for over a decade. Everyone already knew. This was not news.
[random tiktok link] [random tiktok link] [random tiktok link]
“Does anyone know how to use epilepsy?”
“Epilepsy? The seizure thing?”
“No the three dots.”
“Bro, that’s ellipsis.”
“I thought that was the exercise machine.”
“No, that’s an elliptical.” - I know this is a tiktok trend now, but this entire conversation was dead serious
“Do I need to go to the hospital if I got bit by a squirrel?” [everyone yells at him to go to the ER] [someone asks how he got bit by a squirrel] “I wanted to know if they were as fluffy as they look.” - he has confirmed that they are, indeed, as fluffy as they look but you most certainly should never attempt to pet a squirrel
“Bro look at this” [picture of something brutal and gory] “isn’t that cool?”
“I think I could be a professional driver.”
“Didn’t you break your axel by hitting a curb?”
“That doesn’t mean I can’t drive.”

OH MY GOD, Y'ALL
I'm on the reference desk reading through Fuse #8's lists of best books of last year (specifically Picture Book Read Alouds) (I know I'm behind. Please don't judge me. It was a rough December) and ths kid asks me for books about tornadoes. So I bring him to the 551s and he picks out some great ones then I keep scrolling down the list and I come upon:
Tumblr media
So I grab it and bring it to the boy and I said, "I know you asked for nonfiction tornado books but how about a book about a tornado talking to a cow and having a bit of an existential crisis about life?" and the boy said, "that sounds perfect."
His mom is reading it to him right now and they're both giggling.
