Doucheus Maximus

I finally have a small amount of drama to tell. I think Ive mentioned before about the doucheus maximus in the next office. In the last couple of weeks Ive basically been telling him to go f' himself. I dont mind criticism or suggestions but people should pick there battles and not do it for every little fugging thing. The guys not my boss nor is he in my department but he has a fugging comment about every graphic, every picture, every phrasing, every email, etc... He will even go ahead a try to do some of your job for you. He asked me for some graphics once and told him to fugging mind his own fugging biz. I told him that if he were actually good at doing this stuff which he isnt that he might be threatening my money by doing my job for free. So anyway I make a sign stating the "Official John Doe Suggestion Box" and put it over the trash can with helpful arrows. He rips it down a few times but I made plenty of copies. When I get back from lunch he has this poster sitting in the suggestion box with a 7 page article explaining how marketing should think from a sales perspective blah blah blah and the douche bag even had it highlighted and underlined in spots. I immediately crumpled it up and shoved it in the "suggestion box" and then told him to in the future try and get the suggestion all the way in the box. He was upset. He actually thought I was gonna read that. lol.

Can I steal the term "doucheus maximus"? It so aptly describes so many people in my life. Your doucheus maximus reminds me of my old boss. I wish I had had the guts and the gumption to make that sort of suggestion box.
