He's yelling at you, but in a good way

Q: I totally saw porn on the browser history of my boss' computer. I work as a personal assistant in his home office, and it's fully there in the history. Now, in addition to his rank coffee breath and ear hair, I am dealing with flashes of him, um, enjoying the porn. It's getting to be too much to bear. Should I just wait tables again?
A: So you're telling me that besides for this guy's coffee breath and ear hair he is...completely normal? And that makes you uncomfortable? You find it difficult to be around that? Well, unless you're going to wait tables at a robot diner where robots eat oil sandwiches and ask for "lube smoothies" (hey, I think I just came up with a Dreamworks movie!), then you should just let it slide and try to stop your feverish imagination from picturing him "enjoying the porn." The problem here is your imagination imagineering all these fantasy images of what people are doing when you're not around. You need to take some brain-deadening drugs, or go to work at Disney where no one ever looks at porn or otherwise "enjoys" themselves.
When Mr. Odenirk is not busy correcting your prudish ways, he is occupied with being a comedy badass, touring the world, and directing movies. Seize the chance to see him live and in the, um, flesh, at Taix during Echo Park's humbly awesome two-day F*ck Yeah Fest, August 25 and 26.
