PINSM popularity persists

A guy I work with, who happens to be the guy who smashed the birthday plane cookie I gave him to pieces because he's Army, has been trying to fix my new laptop so the network adapter doesn't disable (I need admin rights to re-enable it because they're locking down laptops these days - and I don't have admin rights) because that makes me unable to use wireless.

I had, in May, given the above mentioned guy a PINSM with a kangaroo on it because he fixed my laptop and he said, as he started to work on my new laptop, "don't make me another one of those fucking PINSMs because I'm helping you." I think it's because he's the only one I've made a PINSM for that had a rodent on it. Perhaps I hurt his feelings. Fuck if I know.

So I initially toyed with the idea of drawing a bunch of PINSMs and papering his office with them. But then I thought that might make PINSMs less of a status symbol. So instead I came up with this, which I presented to him today after he tried (but failed) to fix my network adapter issue:

I'm such an asshole
So now he keeps stopping by my desk to ask "WHAT IS THE FUCKING ANIMAL YOU DREW???? AND WHAT IS IT SAYING?????" I think because no one in the office knows what to make of this PINSM.

I think I will draw a part of an animal on a post it note every day, as if it's a puzzle, and I will write on the back "this is part of the coolest animal in the world" and give it to him. But of course the pieces will never fit together to make an animal.

Perhaps, at some point, I can use that as leverage to get admin rights on my laptop.
