this is what i do at work all day

Me (10:55:40 AM):     my attention span is that of a cockroach
Joe
  (10:55:43 AM):     yeah
Me (10:55:51 AM):     i’m assuming they have miniscule attention spans

Me (10:55:54 AM):     i could be wrong
Me (10:55:59 AM):     they could be pros at attention

Joe (10:56:31 AM):     cockroaches are flighty
Me (10:56:51 AM):     they may be flighty but they could be paying really close attention while they’re doing it
Joe (10:57:13 AM):     true
Me (10:57:30 AM):     for all we know cockroaches could be the foremost authority on the subject of attention
Joe (10:57:55 AM):     we’ll never know
Joe (10:58:04 AM):     because we can’t pay attention long enough

It is my ambition, nay, my calling to become the foremost authority on cockroach attention spans on the internet. Help me achieve this by… doing whatever it is you internet pixies do. I’m going to go research and come back with some made up bullshit  very serious and profound findings.
