favourite way to dispose of a co-worker
 
favourite way to dispose of a co-worker who keeps whistling the same damn annoying tune for weeks on end?

I'm sure the grown-up way to do it is to politely and non-threateningly mention that it is distracting, but if you don't want to go that route, there are other ways.

Save up all your questions and messages for him. When he starts whistling, call him on the phone so that he has to stop whistling to talk to you. This assumes that you can build up an arsenal of things to ask him about.

Just block him out by cranking up your headphones.

Counterwhistle.

Pretend to be on the phone. Pretend to talk to someone on the other end. Say "no, no, that's not me whistling. That's somebody in the next cubicle." If he thinks he's loud enough to be heard over a phone line, he might get the hint.

Hey whistiling Joe, please stop sending me those naked pictures of yourself over the e-mail!!! JK. Just ask him to tune it down. He should be embarrased enough to stop.

just make sure that when counter whistling you are grossly off key and with a somewhat screwed up tempo...

Start whisteling the Hokey Pokey. This song is supposed to remove any song stuck in your head. This song will also NOT get stuck in your head. Oh, and do as said above, Off-Key and horribly off tempo.

I have the same problem with a co-worker. I usually yell at him "Will you for the love of god shut the fuck up!" and then I make him do all the shit-work :D

Say it with flatulence!!! Not only will this likely diminish said whistling, but, perhaps clear the room as well. If such does not work directly, you may wish to remark:

"Your whistling get's me too excited"
or
"Hey, name THIS tune... <add sound effect>"

And, if you're looking for total "disposal" of your friend, try an acid bath!!!
