I was in the break room this morning making my long-overdue first cup of coffee when a co-worker named Aly came in to get herself something. She expressed her appreciation for my coffee mug; it’s a plain black mug that says “WTF?” in large white lettering. I ordered it from ThinkGeek.com.

“Thanks,” I replied. “I like it too.”

“It reminds me of something that happened with an old boyfriend of mine,” Aly continued. “He had this dog, and this one time he was trying to teach him to fetch, and he said, ‘Come on, Timmy – what would Jesus’s dog do?’ I thought he should make leashes or dog collars that said that. You know, like ‘WWJDD?’”

“I’ll tell you what Jesus’s dog would do,” I said. “He’d pee on your leg and turn it into wine.”

I got a pretty good laugh from her on that one. It seemed genuine, anyway… maybe you had to be there.

So now I’m wondering… what other fun things would Jesus’s dog do?


You know your work has cheap-ass break room provisions when you find yourself adding sweetener to your cup of hot cocoa.

Pfft. And people wonder why I bring in my own coffee.
