I've never met an academic who also didn't have a monstrosity of an email signature, consisting generally of about 90% of the mails content and attachments. I wish I could post examples but I'm sure most of you can relate.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9I_u4oZqF8c YouTube stdh. Somehow even more awkward than its written counterpart. "I saw a guy run a 100 mile marathon, break all the bones in his feet, get kidney damage, so I decided he could teach me things. I later cold called at his house and whisked him back to live with my family for a month" Because these are things that happen in the real world Edit: There's a transcript for people who don't want to suffer through the video quote:Transcript - I first met SEAL at a 100 mile run in San Diego and I was running this race as part of a six person relay team with friends and he was running the entire race by himself. And the run was unsupported so you have to bring your own supplies. So we had, you know, we overdid it a little bit. We had a tent and we had masseuses and food. I mean we were ready for like in case we had to stay there a week. And he had a folding chair, a bottle of water and a bag of crackers. And I just thought to myself like who is this guy. I’ve never seen anything like it. And during the race I kept an eye on him and around mile 70 he weighed probably 260 pounds which is quite large for an ultra runner. He had broken all the small bones in both of his feet and had kidney damage and he finished the race. So when it was done I Googled him. He had a fascinating life story and I decided literally to cold call him. And I flew out and met with him and after sitting with him for a couple of minutes I realized that I could learn so much from a guy like this that what makes him tick and various buckets in my life would be so much better if a little bit of what he had rubbed off on me. I asked him to come live with my family and I for a month. So at the time that I invited SEAL to come live with us I had an 18-month-old son. I was married, still am. Two more kids since. And I had sold a couple of businesses. I was in a great place professionally in my life but I was also in a routine. And routines are great but they can also be a rut. And I found that I just wasn’t getting better. I was doing the same thing every day like so many of us. Wake up, go to work, come home, you know, have dinner, repeat. And I just wanted to get off autopilot. And I thought that he would be a great way to get in good shape but also to just mix up my routine and get better. moerketid has a new favorite as of 20:49 on Dec 18, 2016 |

That was terrible. I mean it's obviously just shilling for the book he mentions, but he could have at least tried to make it believable. If you get kidney damage and break the 52 bones in your feet while running a marathon, you are the last person anyone should be going to for advice.

Do we have a thread for "Should be STDH but actually did happen?" http://ca.ign.com/articles/2016/12/17/reddit-user-gets-bill-gates-for-secret-santa Reddit does a secret Santa, one woman got Bill Gates who sent her a shitload of stuff including an Xbox 1 and Legend of Zelda Mittens. A representative of Bill Gates confirms it's legit and he's actually done it for a few years now. Bill Gates is a pretty cool dude. Spalec has a new favorite as of 19:23 on Dec 18, 2016 |

I think including a dog as part of the gift is over the line. Even if it is micro, soft.

moerketid posted:YouTube stdh. Somehow even more awkward than its written counterpart. This STDH bothers me because the idea of a guy who can already do pullups being encouraged to do a few pullups every 30 seconds, until they make 100, is believable on its own. The whole idea of having to qualify it with 'I met a SEAL on a 100 mile marathon' part is just so unnecessary.

Of course he had to throw in the "and they gave me free stuff for absolutely no reason" part. Even if the original was real it makes the guy look like a voyeuristic creep staring at two people making out at work. Don't you have anything better to do?
