Rumours have been swirling in the medical world of a new and extremely catching disease: Officeonitis. Cases are popping up around the globe, faster than would be believed possible.

Withdrawal results in daydreaming, the inability to concentrate, and restless behaviour. Officeonitis can affect anyone, and there have been cases reported of Officeonitis in children as young as 2.

1. A squeal of delight whenever the data of April 10, 2008 is mentioned.

2. Beginning every domanda asked with the word "Question."

3. Shouting the words "That's what she said!" after any statement that could be considered a sexual innuendo.

5. The attempt to master the art of putting a stapler in Jello.

6. The inability to eat marmellata without swooning and/or sighing with happiness.
