I enjoy using semicolons. They’re very useful. I consider them to be a comma-chameleon.

EVERY NOW AND THEN I GOTTA FART

well, who really says “I’m glad you’re as weird as I” ? Might not be room for an ‘am’.

Orwell didn’t know he was also writing about the Entertainment-Industrial Complex.

McKinsey is to the middle class what flesh-eating bacteria is to healthy tissue.

Holy shit, this writer pulls no punches.

Protools can suck it. :) REAPER is where it’s at.

yeah I can do without watching a YT video to listen to someone say stupid things.

it’s bad enough knowing that some people literally make better money creating bullshit YT and TV shows than I make at my job.

I thought we were paying respects to the fallen dial tone

It’s only a dial tone if it comes from a land line

Yes, we are defeating non-human life without trying. if we were trying I imagine we could make quite a dent.

but if the animal kingdom was trying, I think that would be pretty terrifying.

“Alright! Back to 1 everybody!! Get those ice-packs ready… aaaaaannnd… ACTION!!”

Hjalmar is right. Good for them. Being randomly friendly is fucking decent.

maybe the only really bad thing is that nobody got it on video?

to be fair, some jokes have already been done to death before people decide they are worth dissecting

I’ve adopted the Sour Grapes philosophy over the past few years : if they didn’t want to hire me then they’re obviously a bunch of stupid fucks who don’t know quality when they see it, which means I wouldn’t want to work with them in the first place. but I say that from a position of already having a job. That philosophy doesn’t help someone trying to find a first job or trying to get back into the workforce after an extended absence.

yes but sometimes they’re trying to find people who fit a preconceived notion of “who they want to work with.” They may use phrases like “team player” or whatnot. They want someone who is like them. I mean, I can understand the motivation behind that approach but I don’t think it’s the best way forward.
