How could I possibly resist?

Wandering (lonely as a cloud), I came across a list of potential writing topics over on HubPages. I'd just seen a bunch of depressing titles on a different site, talking about ways to decorate your work cube for the season, so when I saw this particular one over there, I was tempted.
Now I'm someone who hates cube farms. I think the whole idea is horrific, inefficient, depersonalising and one of the best examples of the way work destroys our lives in present times. The very idea of actually caring enough about the box you are forced to sit in for eight hours every day is alien to me. I can't think of anyone I've ever known who would willingly go and sit in one all day if they weren't being paid for it.
Personalisation and decoration of such a ghastly expression of a business's control over our most precious daylight hours makes me want to puke. No, really. I mean, it's just so desperate.
Anyway, I saw this request for an article with the title "Creative Ways to Decorate Your Office Cubicle" and my evil little brain started giggling with malicious glee. The result can be seen on Associated Content and HubPages... mwuhahaha!
