Where is “sleeping 60 hours cat”?
Easy, breezy, beautiful … clever girl.
Do people not aggressively prepare for this all the time?
They do not. People making $150K a year think they will keep making that (and more) for decades to come, and it’s ludicrously easy to spend all that on useless shit. Shit, just drugs alone can take most of that.
What does it matter if it’s a worse product, or barely functional
I spent (wasted) years of my career developing shitty Skype clones for cable companies and ISPs, just so these companies could say they had them on offer even though absolutely nobody ever actually used them. It wasn’t even a case of companies ripping off their customers - it was lower-level managers and vice presidents ripping off their own technically ignorant corporate executives. It was depressing busting my ass on this stuff when I knew it didn’t make any difference whether it worked or not.
I’m a Teamster as a school bus driver. When I first joined the Teamsters, I started making a joke about getting a phone call at midnight to go break some kneecaps down at the docks. One of my more psycho coworkers responded to my joke with a dead serious “I’d like that”. Same dude thinks us bus drivers should carry guns.
Sorry, I meant “motion capture Morgan Freeman”. Harriet Tubman would be CGI of course.
Medieval history especially
At least we have Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
they tend to be great talkers and networkers
This is selling them a bit short. They’re also generally pretty good at raping aspiring actresses.
does “Dr. Kwame Nkrumah” mean anything to you?
C’mon, there are lots of NBA fans outside of the United States.
AI Morgan Freeman
I used to work for a west coast tech giant. Their early retirement package was: “you are retiring now, goodbye” along with a severance just large enough to disqualify me from unemployment. At least I didn’t have to spend months pretending to look for work.
I used to hang out with some behavioral psychology (BF Skinner stuff) graduate students. They transport pigeons head-down in juice pitchers; I asked them how they got the pigeons into those pitchers, and they showed me that they just open the cages and hold the pitchers up and the birds dive into them, sometimes knocking themselves out in the process. They are into that lever-pressing shit, although TBF that’s mainly because they’re maintained at 80% of a normal diet so that the reinforcing effect of the food pellets is maximized.
FWIW pigeons can be trained to do some pretty interesting shit. Skinner had them playing ping-pong, and really competing at it - like, they got rewarded for winning shots, not just for hitting the ball back. Skinner also had a scheme going to use pigeons to steer flying bombs into enemy ships during WWII.
The women who work there are also cute - and I drive some of their children to school every day. They are like the last people in the world that I would want to see me with a copy of Mein Kampf.
I read an article a few years back about Mein Kampf and I decided I wanted to read it for myself (for the record, I’m not a nazi or a Hitler supporter - fuck off Kanye). I grabbed a copy at Barnes & Noble but there was a cute girl working the cash register and I just couldn’t bring myself to go through with the purchase. It’s available online but there’s no way I’m going to do that - my Youtube suggestions are bad enough as it is.
Later on I read about Hitler’s second book and I was like c’mon, there’s no fucking way I’m asking for the sequel to Mein Kampf.
I do recommend drugs, at least weed and the hallucinogens.
Their Shakes are pretty good.
my parents also wanted me to stop listening to it because my dad found one article about a guy who beat up his girlfriend and he apparently liked Metallica
My dad once picked me up from a party when I was in high school in the 1980s; he noticed a video that was playing on MTV and was highly disturbed by the imagery in it, as he told me later (many times).
The video was “Cuts Like a Knife” by Bryan Adams. My dad thought he was losing me to Satan because of fucking Bryan Adams!
