My Societal Niche Has Been Co-Opted

There's a new funny guy in the office, and his name is not Ben or any variation on the word Ben. Nor is his name Dwight. His name is Brian.

On the lunch buffet sign up sheet, Brian wrote for his contribution, "Me? Er...Pepsi." This brought me some small delight as it made the page a good deal more interesting to read.

Usually I consider myself the clever funny guy, so I feel like my role has been stolen. But I think I've never actually done anything that funny in this building. So whatever.

A Simpsons quote ought to solve my problems:
LISA: This is your chance to develop a new and better identity. May I suggest...good-natured doormat?
BART: Sounds good, sis. Just tell me what to do.
