Official transcript

Alice stands in front of the Boss' desk and says, "My posterior is growing to fit the size of my chair."

The Boss asks, "Is that possible?"

Alice replies, "Posteriors are like goldfish. They grow to the limit of their environment."

The Boss replies, "That's ridiculous. I have the biggest chair. That would mean..."

Alice quickly says, "Forget I brought it up. Well, back to work."

Wally and Dilbert stand looking over the wall of a cubicle. Alice walks by and Dilbert asks, "Mission report?"

Alice replies, "Success."

Alice rubs her hands together and says, "The glue on his chair should be set by now."

The Boss walks down the hall with his desk chair stuck to him. He thinks, "I guess this is why goldfishes don't use chairs."
