TiMeOuT!

A scratched his head and sighed.
V paced up and down, one step on each uncarpetted tile.
P tapped his pencil against the table, trying to make music.
T snatched the pencil and pegged it in her mop of hair.
H checked the empty drawers for some cash.
N made paper rockets.
R chewed on a candy bar and stared at the screen.
G stared too, visibly hungry.
R made funny noises.
K disassembled his pen.
S was sound asleep.
J twirled in her chair, round and round.

All of them had just one thing to say... WTF
All of them had exhausted all courses of action.
All of them were left with only one choice – to keep waiting.

Somewhere in another planet, Xoobli from the planet X tried to decipher the radio transmissions emanating from an object he found floating in space.

Xoobli from planet X deciphered the transmissions emanating from the object floating in space. The object was a part of an earth-made satellite.
And the information that it transmitted, roughly translated into the following:
"Radio City 91FM, coffee, bus, traffic, movie, cubicle, pencil, fan, ac, dc, nirvana, oasis, yoga, exercise, ruffles...."
Midway through the list, Xoobli vanished into thin air since its life duration was only a couple of minutes. No one ever got to hear the complete list.
