My Interview with Clippy the Microsoft Word Paper Clip

Today is a very special day because I got to sit down an interview a man....errr....office supply that needs no introduction. He is known worldwide, he is Clippy, the Microsoft paper clip.

Me: What's up paper clip

Clippy: "up paper clip" is a prepositional phrase.

Me: Haha, very clever. So how exactly did you get your
 job?

Clippy: Your pen is blue.

Me: Yes I know, I thought about writing in pencil, so I could erase but then i end up erasing a whole lot and it just gets real messy. So I decided to write this interview with a pen. I like blue better than black because.....wait! Why are we talking about my pen?? I asked you a question.

Clippy: Porcupines float in water.

Me: What does that have to do with anything?? Do you say anything useful??

Clippy: I can help you make a resume.

Me: I don't need help making a resume.

Clippy: A spreadsheet?

Me: No.

Clippy: Your will?

Me: Uh uh

Clippy: Ransom Note?

Me: I don't have anything to hold for ransom.

Clippy: Tax forms?

Me: I don't do my tax....I mean....I don't need help doing my taxes.

Clippy: A deed?

Me: A deed to what?

Clippy: An application?

Me: You didn't answer my quetion to the last one. What kind of a deed?

Clippy: A contract?

Me: Are you even listening to me?

Clippy: A suicide note?

Me: I'm considering it. I'm starting to see why they left you off of the new version of Microsoft Office.

Clippy: .................

Me: Ohhhh. Now you're not going to talk. What are you going to do now Clippy??

Clippy: I don't know.

Me: Are you going to continue being a paper clip?

Clippy: Probably.

Me: Or maybe a thumbtack?

Clippy: A thumbtack, I don't know how I could...

Me: Or a pencil eraser?

Clippy: I don't know how to erase...

Me: A highlighter?

Clippy: Not really i could scratch stuff out though.

Me: A ruler?

Clippy: I could be a really short ruler, tell me more.

Me: A protractor?

Clippy: Wait, you didn't tell me about the ruler thing.

Me: A staple?

Clippy: Hold on, wait.

Me: A stapler?

Clippy: Are you listening to me?

Me: A staple remover?

Clippy: STOP!

Me: Annoying isn't it?? Maybe you could be tape?

Clippy: I'm not sticky!

Me: You could be......a HAMMER!

Clippy: ................

Me: ...............

  • Clippy is annoying
  • Bonzai Buddy is friendly
  • Clippy would not make a good hammer

I had a Bonzai Buddy. He was killed in a hard drive crash a few years ago. Very tragic. Thanks for the memory...
