    You don’t work hard for the company, you work hard for yourself. Let them pay you to stack your resume and build relationships, BAIL. Has it never occurred to you folks that you can game the system in your own favor?! How is, “I’ll be lazy and stick it to the man!”, working out for you? It’s not or you wouldn’t give memes like this the time of day.



  • I wonder how old you are. Gen X was raised, rather uniquely, to make our own decisions. Schools allowed even kindergartners to make simple decisions, and we had to deal with it if we fucked up. Same for being latchkey kids. We were alone after school, had to decide what to do for ourselves and live with the consequences.

    Had a stepson in elementary 20 years ago; my own kids are now 11 and 13. Schools are a fucking horror show. Kids don’t even get a locker! We had to be responsible for getting books and whatever else was needed between classes. In 2nd grade, once that final bell rang, we were on our own. We could play in the creek, walk, skate or bike home, whatever. Now you’re not leaving without a parent the teacher recognizes or on a bus. In high school we could leave campus at lunch, but you better be back on time, no excuses for poor decisions. You could light up with your teacher in the smoke hole. (An example of allowing bad decisions! Lord.)

    Kids are no longer taught to think and solve problems. They are taught to pass standardized tests. Teachers are culled if they don’t toe the party line, so the best are mostly gone. Neither the kids nor the teachers get to make decisions any longer. It’s like the meat grinder from The Wall.

    No rose colored glasses here! Teachers could beat the shit out of us. The number of pedophile teachers in my middle school was horrifying once we hit college and looked back. Hell, pedophiles were tolerated as mere weirdos!

    But at least we were trained, perhaps inadvertently, to make decisions.







  • Late reply, I’m rarely on here but I wanted to answer you and anyone coming along in the future. US here, talking about conditioner we use to make our hair soft and shiny after using shampoo.

    It’s happened a few times, no doubt with different products. The reddit thread was saying it’s because the conditioner residue dries the skin and you should wash off with soap. Funny enough, I just did this yesterday, for the first time in many months. No problem so far!

    That and many other simple laws. I’ve been saying these DCs are a local government problem. Nearly every one of these building permits could be denied by city and county goverments.




  • Saw an interview with him last night. They were totally unprepared to film that video, amateur hour. He was young and scared shitless, made up the dance on the spot. Guy doing backflips? “Hey guys! Watch what I can do!” In the video he went. There was a guy yelling out his apartment window for them the shut the fuck up down there. Wardrobe? Nope, those were his own clothes.
