Sounds like neighbor problem, not a firework one

I know right? The other day I was drinking a coke and wondering about side effects of weight loss drugs such as Ozempic, and it occurred to me that advertising could be a lot more creative and subtle.

It’s kinda weird and boring and the characters are quirky enough to be funny but also relatable in a vaguely nostalgic, innocence of mid teens kinda way. No one is good or bad and the climax is Napoleon dancing in front of the whole school so his friend wins the student council vote. And then everyone clapped.

It’s like the Big Lebowski, where the absurdity gets funnier with each watch. Definitely fun to rewatch with friends when you see the jokes coming.

Jesus is coming…look busy!

Knowing storks, you don’t want to know. They’re not the best parents.

For sure. Humans are super social and our big brains enable so much verbal, nonverbal, and written communication that we became more efficient as a group. All the greatest things out there, bridges and sky scrapers and roads were built by teams, not an individual, because of our strong communication skills.

Never heard the equine reference before. Anyone know where that came from?

There are lots of reasons that one area of your company may make less money. It’s like how the NYC subway or post office technically don’t “make money” but the value they bring to the whole system is a net positive by enabling all the other companies to make way more.

This is so true. By college, far more learning and work takes place independently. A professor will teach 3-4 hours per week. Definitely not enough to “explain everything”.

Some explaining, but mostly the job is teach students how to think critically, seek resources, manage time at short medium and long terms, express yourself orally and written, build endurance for boring things, and most importantly to read.

I can explain riding a bike all day. But that’s not how someone learns to ride.

You sound like the kids who don’t do their homework.

You made a post about how great the design is based on screenshots? And didn’t think to use the site yourself?

Oops! All fascists! I’ll assume good faith here so I suggest you close the door, back away slowly, and hope no one saw you in there.

Find the right men. There are 4 billion men out there and many are able to communicate and be there for friends. It may take moving into some peripheral spaces where different experiences and points of view are appreciated.

From big bang, to medium rare, to heat death of the universe, how do you take your steak, sir?

I was half remembering a quote from someone back in the 80s that pops up as a repost every so often.

Edit: it was Clifford Stoll in Newsweek 1995. Pretty funny how wrong he got almost everything.

I don’t think that internet is going to be much more than a casual toy that people will eventually grow tired of. Too niche.

Dang, how could I miss woke!? Everything’s woke except the sheeple.

These radical leftist policies that hate money are Obamacare, abortions, jobkillers, Marxist, communist, Leninist, atheist, Jews, Muslims, French, gay and trans agendas, grooming, protesting, unions, paper cuts, workers rights, pronouns, bathrooms, diversity, work from home, and liberal college elites all rolled into one. And it’s coming out of your tv, taking your guns, and making you use an electric range in a coastal city.

It’s like they aren’t even trying anymore, just sprinkling emotional buzzwords around regardless of the topic.
