Clippy is back to troll your friends in Microsoft Teams

It's Monday, and your coworkers are digging into a long, grueling database project. If you're nice, you'll bring them coffee and bagels. But if you're feeling less charitable, there's always an animated Clippy sticker to help get their week started off on the wrong foot. Microsoft recently confirmed that, yes, you can pull a number of animated Clippy images from within Microsoft Teams. In case you're too young to remember Clippy, the animated paperclip was introduced to Microsoft Word in 1996 as an "office assistant," and is unfondly remembered as a precursor to virtual assistants like Siri and the Google Assistant.
