CORNWALL, ON—Irving Klint, a single, 41-year-old data programmer at a small IT company, has revealed that he's been feeling overlooked by his co-workers.
"It sucks," he sighs. "I think there are a few people in the office who still don't even know my name. They'll only refer to me as 'pal' or 'buddy.' I've been here for four years. Same desk and everything."
However, thanks to an upcoming office party, Klint is hopeful that's all about to change.
"We're having an office party at a karaoke bar this Friday, and I'm going balls to the wall," Klint explains, revealing a shiny, expensive-looking microphone nestled inside a satin-lined box. "Bringing my own mic and everything."
When asked what kind of songs he plans to perform, Klint was emphatic.
"Anything sexy. Music that says, 'This is Irving Klint, and he's a bad boy.' R&B probably. R Kelly, Nelly, that kind of stuff," he says as he adjusts his ill-fitting windbreaker, uncomfortably.
"Let's just say everyone's going to know my name Monday morning, and that name is Irving Klint: Sex Man."
When asked if he thought he might be overdoing it, Klint shook his head.
"I don't think so. No. Once they see me writhing around on the floor, nailing my rendition of Boyz II Men's I'll Make Love To You, I'll probably become the hit of the office."
DataTech Cornwall's karaoke party will be held at Silly Jerry's Singhouse in downtown Cornwall this Friday night at 9 pm.
"Let's just say that shit's about to get cray," Klint added, before pausing for moment, thoughtfully.

"Hey, was that the correct use of the word cray?"
