I’m so fucking sick of retard gangbangers (to quote Ricky Bobby) shooting up my city to solve disputes. It not even in the “shitty” areas anymore, it’s at fucking brunch, surrounded by parking lots full of Bentleys and Lambos. Fucking mouthbreathing troglodytes with no gun skills and even less regard for life. I hope they shoot each other all dead or die in a fire.

Way to “keep it real” (Chappelle), Fuckers.

I put an office chair on the corner with a "free" sign taped to it. Took a peek an hour later and the chair was gone. But whoever took it peeled the tape and sign off and left them lying on the sidewalk. WTF?

[~mikey b]

they had nothing to give away

[riser4]

Well, that's better than what often happens here. Somebody takes the sign and leaves the stuff.

What the fuck do I do?

Dude. DI. You live in the land of cheap suit jackets. If you're lucky, it'll even come with a name tag and some reading material.

I was gonna post something in this thread, but I forgot what it was as this dog shit discussion has been very entertaining. I hate the fucking poop bags all over the trail. Drives me bonkers.

Oh yeah.
I have a dinner party to go to Saturday night for a friend of my wife's birthday. The party theme is dress to impress. Here's where it get annoying. I have like one sport coat (if I can find it), and it ain't for 100f heat. Wife has already started giving me shit about what I'm going to wear. I'll be damned if I'm gonna buy clothes for one dinner that I won't wear again for 5 years. What the fuck do I do? The host is the wife of a very well known local sports figure, and several of the other guests are hoity toity recent east coast transplants.
This shit is annoying.
Plus I gotta get a hair cut. That's annoying too.

Go anywhere, even Target. By the nicest, softest, smoothest t shirt you can find in white, black, navy or dark gray. Make sure it fits you very well. Should cost $20 or less and you can wear it a million more times.

Buy a pair of new adidas or puma sneakers that are a little euro/fashion forward but that you still like. Adidas Stan Smiths, something suedeish, etc. make sure they are brand new the day you go to this thing. But make sure you’ll wear them afterwards also so no wasted cash. Bonus points if you have or buy shoes that are more trendy, like tetorns or those retro Reebok’s or some shit.

Pair t shirt and shoes with the nicest pants you own.

Add a belt or not as desired.

Wear dark ass sunglasses. Make sure they aren’t dorky.

With this outfit, you can literally go to any event. And you’ll be comfortable.

And don’t fucking take off the sunglasses. Ever.

Does Mr Mac still exist? You could get a brand new two pant suit.

That tie does not look regulation.

Back in Silverton the day before Hardrock and running into an old GF. Bitch still has a killer body, although her face is rapidly headed south.

Douchebag narcissist bros like Viva, nothing worse getting trapped into a conversation with vapid people like those.

Aww...are we bros?

She's probably saying the same thing about you right now.

Working with someone who actually (and earnestly) crammed “lean in”, “deep dive”, “pivot” and a dozen other bullshit consulting platitudes into about 5 minutes of conversation this morning.

Is that 360view from 30,000 feet or leaned in?

I was just informed by said individual that we have a “seat at the table to share some perspective”, which doesn’t sound as bad but I find it equally cringe inducing.

[Fofo]

Ugh... I work in the corporate world, but I just use plain language in meetings, presentations, etc.

I roll my eyes when someone talks about the "delta in granularity for the 30,000 ft view," etc, etc.

In my line of work I'm somewhat immune to this, but instead we get a million acronyms that the speaker always assumes everyone else understands.

As probably noted 2 summers ago….the crappy summer chip and tar jobs all around my area…what a mess…

If you work for the DOD you'd better know your acronyms or you might wind up killing the wrong people.

Millions of dollars will be spent to repair this fuckup. What a waste.

It's likely they don't know them all, either.

I often ask what some initialization or acronym stands for, or what it means. Usually I get my answer but sometimes they have no clue. For some reason in my field of work people hate admitting they don't know something, when there is an impossible amount of stuff to know.

My absolute least favourite though is "reach out to x." Like what do you mean? Did you call them? Email? Go and speak with them in person? Carrier pigeon? Because all of those things have different levels of urgency. "Reach out" tells me nothing and it's a goddamn stupid thing to say.
