Kinda the same here. My niece made it sound good. It was good, amazing even, and relevant, but Uncle BeMoreCareful watches cartoons and makes fart jokes.

I gotta let the kid know to take it easy on me.

I mean, if it’s good, natural human behavior that reinforces the realities of human interactions and behaviors. It’s a good thing.

I don’t think they’re justifying as much as just being a bit more honest about life.

/S

You can tell by the strong resistance now?

Cut that dude’s leg off and he’ll be able to run faster without carrying all that extra weight.

Good god that was an intense show.

I almost can’t believe I made it through the whole thing.

You have to imagine him enjoying himself.

One of my most unfortunate thoughts is that people were as excited about radio and television before they were centralized.

Once we lost synchronous internet connection the internet started evolving.

Content currated by our betters to help us fulfill their lives.

Gotta let the darkness shine.

Perfectly honest: I’ve said some things so cynical that I’ve caused kinda random people to be quite uncomfortable and I hate that.

Don’t you know who I am?

Unless boots were something that makes money.

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. … A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. … But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

This was the Captain Samuel Vimes ‘Boots’ theory of socio-economic unfairness.

My Mother was a Saint!

Shit that movie was sad.

I feel like I may remember the event alluded to with gyllenhaal’s character towards the end.

Also, crazy that it was twenty years ago.

That should do, thanks.

I loved these two when I was a kid.

She’ll give up Trump’s most wanted and head off into the sunset (or resume operations, one).

There goes middle management

That lines up with my existential dread.

I guess I just don’t feel bad for corporations.

Some of the viral videos show this in action. In one, a man can be heard telling employees at Chipotle that he was called in to “clean house” because portion sizes have been “lacking.”

He makes a phone call to call in his troops, who then begin haphazardly “cleaning” the restaurant and attempting to enter the employees-only area behind the counter as the store’s manager calls the police.

Honestly, it’s kinda funny. I wouldn’t watch the video, but reading the article brought out a chuckle.
