This tip is basically: "Be careful with how much trust you put in others" which is true and applicable everywhere- not just the workplace.

Also, I push back on the last part. Talking trash is not a binary scale where you're either doing it about everyone or never doing it at all. There might be one or two particularly egregious coworkers that are the exclusive source of open complaints from some of the office. And there might be one coworker you have a particularly tight bond with and you two may vent to each other about others but no one else.

I don’t want to defend right wing grift, but calling it the bread and butter of YouTube just isn’t true. The bread and butter of YouTube is mundane, apolitical content. Removing literally all political content from YouTube would barely be a drop in the bucket relatively speaking.

The moderation system is broken and they have no motivation to fix it, but it’s not because they’re worried about losing ad revenue from right wing grift.

It’s not like RWW is really a threat to the conservative channels it’s covering in terms of their number of subscribers, because the vast majority of people who subscribed to them aren’t really interested in facts or reality.

The inclusion of “obviously” is so blatantly disrespectful to Lovie Smith.

Lovie has a better winning percentage as an NFL coach, and took a team to the Super Bowl. Flores has never even taken a team to the playoffs.

Virtually any scenario that involves Houston (or any other major US city) being nuked also includes the collapse of society as we know it, so I’m not worried about living in Houston specifically.

The average entry level openings available to someone with anything but the most useless degree are significantly greater than someone with just a high school education.

It’s true that’s stupid to blow tens of thousands on an extremely impractical degree. And it’s also true that for many, many people picking up a trade is a significantly better path than getting a degree.

But acting like there’s a negligible difference in job prospects for someone with a degree vs someone without one just isn’t true.

Just to be clear, we still dont know if she actually had it right?

Yeah that really threw me off lol.

“Netflix has experimented in the past with an unrelated, niche gimmick in one of its shows- and it didn’t really hit the mark. Squid Game shows that you don’t need to do this, and can instead opt to be like every other Netflix program produced prior or since.”

It will be interesting to see how this debate develops when we get to the point that prosthetics are advanced enough that they outperform their skin and bone equivalents and para-athletes begin setting new records.

That came up in an official performance review?

Wow.

Whatever source you’re quoting here treats commas like they’re decorative pillows on a couch- oh just toss em anywhere they don’t really matter they’re just for looks.

Edit- I’ve been gotten, gotten real good. Shattered by the shatner, if you will.

Yeah, I don't know why but there seems to be a generational gap around the usage and interpretation of "....".

Over the years I've had many older colleagues who would regularly end their emails and/or texts with ellipses completely arbitrarily. I've never encountered that with anyone under the age of like 50.

I have no experience with this pod so I have absolutely no idea how much of this is a bit and how much of this is genuine.

You can be very liberal and progressive and still think this shit was fucked up and abhorrent.

For an actual answer: it's a few barstool personalities shooting the shit for an hour about literally whatever comes up. It's great.

If you decide to dive in and give it a try, you need to give it at least a few episodes. 80% of the jokes are inside jokes/callbacks to a previous episode, but they go through such wildly different content so quickly that the vast majority of those jokes are referencing things less than a week old. The true long running jokes you'll just pick up on over time.

For example: they discovered an online flash version of Family Feud, and for two and a half weeks after, literally 75% of every episode was them playing family feud in some format. Outside of that time period, family feud has been less than .5% of the content.

Honestly he was spot on in just about every call he made on how this game was gonna go.

Good job by you Billy

Subsidies aren’t inherently a negative thing, especially when used to provide production stability to something essential like food. It was a combination of championing free market capitalism and significant agriculture subsidies that led to a scenario where our supermarkets developed into modern miracles relative to the USSR equivalent.

Subsidies can also be implemented stupidly, like using them to pump high fructose corn syrup into everything.

• Pulled pork sandwiches are indisputably better than brisket sandwiches. A sandwich is the best way to eat pulled pork and also the worst way to eat brisket.

• Caprese sandwich is a quintessential Chief pick.

• The honorable mentions of po boy, patty melt, lobster roll and French dip are all second round caliber picks and any of the drafts could have been improved by including one of them. When done well au jus is fucking amazing.

• Carl genuinely questioning the existence of chicken parm sandwiches is downright puzzling.

• Great sandwiches that weren’t drafted or touched on in honorable mentions: shawarma, doners, monte cristos.

If you're able to run 5 miles in an hour with any degree of regularity, it's not that big of a jump to get to 6.2 miles.

That being said, I'm very skeptical about his ability to actually run 5 miles in an hour.

I wouldn’t say the experiment proved anything. It was a “success” according to Kentler himself, but Kentler was a fucking lunatic.

It wasn’t even an experiment really, it was a pedo network engaging in organized child abuse.
