Well, lets see, I know this certain coworker who shall remain nameless (Joy) who it would seem has taken upon herself to mooch off of me and a mutual friend...

Heres the situation: This mutual friend and nameless (Joy) wanted me to make some CD copies of some albums for them which I did ... shortly thereafter the two asked me to make more copies of other albums which I did and did and did...now some 60 or so copies latter this mutual friend gave me money and CD-Rs to replace what I made for him and he asked nameless (Joy) to do the same...no response from nameless (Joy)...never even a thank you...now months latter the mutual friend gave me a bunch of CD-Rs with cases because nameless (Joy) would not make any effort to replace the ones I made for her (did I mention not even a thank you?) and my friend bought the replacements out of his own pocket...So now this nameless (Joy) is not just mooching off of me but our mutual friend as well...

What to do about nameless (Joy)??...Did I mention her name is Joy??

ROFLMAO!! hehe...

That is pretty darn funny.....and Kilauea is an AWESOME volcano...i know some stuff about it....it would be just perfect for "Joy."

Lol, I really like the sidenote to the last choice! But I've got another suggestion. Might take awhile to do, but I think it'd be pretty funny.

Just be honest and tell her how you feel. I know, doesn't sound funny. Here's the catch: Tell her on one last CD-R! You know how some cheesy ransom letters have the message spelled out of different magazine letters? Do the same thing, but take a bunch of different CDs, and get .wav samples of words or phrases. Works best if some samples are from gangsta rap and parody genres.

Or you could make a cd and modify the track so it is VERY quiet in the beginning so she turns her headephone/speaker up really loud to listen, then 30 secs later... WHAM!

Or just scratch every cd you make for her.... carve some death threats into it or something...

That's pretty good, but save it for a recording she really likes, and do it every 10 seconds! The audible equivalent of a rollercoaster.

...
Note to self: Never piss off chych while asking for CD-Rs...

Tear an ad for bulk blank CD's from the paper and give it to her. Circle the price.

Jeez you folks are rough...kind of scaring me...remind me not to piss you guys off i was thinking of just giving Joy a CD copy of songs sung by Kathy Lee Crosby...that should be enough to induce anyone to jump into a volcano...
showing Joy an add with the price of the CD-Rs sounds like a good idea but somehow i suspect dear Joy is in some kind of state of denial...

pardon me if your a Kathy Lee Crosby fan...

I once punished a non-payer by replacing portions of five or six tracks with the sound baloons make when you rub them. I was walking by as he and his freind played one of the songs, it went something like this:

Him: This is a good song.
Freind: Yeh, turn it up
(turns music up LOUD)
Him: Great riff coming up...
SQEAK!SQEAK!SQEAK!SQEAK!SQEAK!SQEAK!SQEAK!

I nearly fell over. When he came around to tell me that something was wrong with the cd, I told him pointedly, "You didn't pay anything for it, so it shouldn't matter."

Lol capt bubba, that should do the trick!

Or, another variation, just "hate songs" -- "Standing in My Light" and "person" by Ian Hunter come to mind (only because I was just listening to them). Too bad there aren't too many good songs about moochers...Minnie the Moocher comes to mind.

I sympathize, fella. That's one of the reasons I don't do nuthin' fer free anymore...

If the person were a fellow HeadFizer, you could tie them down, force them to listen to a pair of phones that came with a portable (those panasonic phones come to mind) and listen to the Orpheus, just out of reach of the HeadFizer. Then when you are done, instaed of letting the HeadFizer have a turn, run over the phones with a steamroller.

In retrospect, I would never wish this upon any HeadFizer no matter what they had done wrong. No crime is deserving of that punishment.

NNNOOOOO!!! Don't even think about smashing an Orpheus! Those things are limited-edition, remember?

No (reasonable) headphone is deserving of that punishment! Anyone who destroys one for spite has to answer to *me* and the rest of the community. I vote we tie them to a chair and V600s to their ear while playing Britney Spears/Backstreet Boys and a TV with "Bambi"(or other suitable film) playing constantly in front of their face. Oh, and they have to be tied onto one of those all-in-one school desks.

And I'm talking about the person that destroyed the Orpheus.

I could never bring myself to destroy an Orpheus, no self-respecting HeadFizer could. Not because they are limited edition, but because the destruction of such art, beauty, and musical potential is unethical.

But anybody that would actually perform such a horrible act would probably like that kind of music and those headphones. No, I vote we find some horribly mastered cd (I'm talking super-compressed, extreme channel separation, the works...) of a poor band from some other generation. Then we get some ultra-revealing headphone and amp combination, so they can hear just how bad music can be. Oh, and "Bambi" honestly wasn't that bad, at least not when I was little. How about Martha Stewart cooking sessions?

Umm, why?
