    office /ô′fĭs, ŏf′ĭs/

    noun 3. A subdivision of a governmental department. “the US Patent Office.”

    turns out an office isn’t a building… who’d have thought… wait… everyone… everyone knows that and it’s easily found information

    also language is malleable

    also who cares what the word is; forcing people to do dumb shit because of a name is the dumbest shit ever

        I’ve seen it a billion times and I’m not sure what the reference in your comment was?

          The reference is when Champ says: “It’s Anchorman not Anchorlady”.

          It’s like one of the classic lines. I can’t believe you don’t know it?

            Ah right. It’s not most memorable of them. Anyway, when people don’t get your joke it means it didn’t land. You need to chill a bit.
