Comments from the Coworker

Since I spend a lot of time in the lab at my computer, the lab tech has taken this to mean that I am his new best friend, and completely interested in everything he has to say. He also has a mild case of dysfunction in his brain-to-mouth filter. Just out of absolutely nowhere (I mean, nobody had said anything for a good 20 minutes, the radio was playing music, not talking about news or anything), he says this:

"Yeah, that guy [name removed] from maintenance, he's a real radical (something about military anti-government beliefs that I can't exactly remember even though this happened less than 5 minutes ago). That's just how he is."

No more conversation was made on the subject, he continued on with his work, and I sat here and blinked a couple of times trying to figure out where in the heck that came from. I'm still not sure.
