Posted in the BPO Facebook group, but figured you all would enjoy it too... This kind of stuff irritates the gently caress out of me. See, I genuinely like this guy. Known him for a while, and he's constantly putting poo poo like this as a status. Things like, oh woe is me, I had to do my loving job. I had personal tragedy, and I'm still here working. You know, what they're literally PAYING ME to do. Please oh please tell me how awesome I am. I'm a hero! Pat me on my back! I need validation! Fishing for compliments and likes is lovely. It's lovely as gently caress. It's extra hilarious because working EMS, you sign a contract that says basically: I won't leave my post until relief comes, or I'm directed by a supervisor. The cheap shot at millenials, which, he loving is himself, is gold. Also, as someone pointed out, he's obviously on OT, so he's making an insane amount of money to be complaining about doing his loving job. Totally not complaining though. Totally.  Edit: Currently 100+ likes on this garbage status. No surprise every commenter is white as driven snow and praising him for being "SO HEROIC" and "DOING GOD'S WORK!" Yeah, go gently caress yourself. North Central Floridans love to poo poo all over each other and younger people. God I hate this loving place. Somebody has a new favorite as of 18:08 on Mar 13, 2017 |

Teach posted:From a page back, but just want you to know, Inco, good job. Is it that weird? I remember some old "how-to" pictures that used a large Pringles can to boost an antenna, so it seems at least plausible. Or am I missing something about powdered milk?

Yeah the semi-circle is definitely what's intriguing me the most. Do you just pour the powered milk around your router?

The Pringles can thing works because the interior of the can is made of foil, and modifying the can could create a suitable antenna. The thing with the Powdered Milk just sounds like a scam to get you to buy more powdered milk. Don't keep Big Milk in power!

I can't post a photo because it's a friend's child, but the boy is wearing a shirt that says, "My Mom Sells LuLaRoe." Is this leggings thing another MLM scam? My sister had a friend who was selling this poo poo and added me to a Facebook Lularoe chat party.

Definitely an MLM thing, but they differentiate themselves by having weird rules about their online sales. So you can't put up a typical e-commerce store, you have to do these weird "parties" where people kind of bid on the leggings. They're basically the same leggings that you can get at Walgreens that Wendy Williams was all about and less like work-out, yoga butt Lululemon leggings.

It might not be that particular MLM but I know one Italian restaurant in my area had a problem with people trying to start those dumb sales parties in the table areas and drag in other customers. So they had to put up signs at both entrances letting people know that doing what is essentially soliciting sales from other customers would get you kicked out.

I once came home to a dog turd on the floor. I didn't actually see the dog poo poo it but I guess it's a stretch to conclude that he did based on the evidence.

See my husband just knows me and my crap attention span 😉 quote:Oh goodness yes! My husband knows me too, but he let me go for it. I really wish he was more firm in telling me NO haha because I’m getting ready to close up shop. It hurts a little, but it’s the best thing for me and my family. The sheer frequency of this sort of sentiment in the comments... It's really sad.

JonTron apparently did a debate on Twitch yesterday and it was monumentally loving terrible with such highlights as "The richest blacks commit more crimes than the poorest whites" "Discrimination no longer exists in America" " ~when asked why whites becoming a minority was a bad thing~ Heh...uh...well..." Also he thinks blacks commit more crimes because of their genes and their 'tribal roots'.

Wifi signals treat powdered milk like ghosts treat salt. They can't cross it. So the signals bounce back the other direction and that amplifies the signal in the rest of the building.

Mushika posted:The sheer frequency of this sort of sentiment in the comments... It's really sad. I know a few women who really like LuLaRoe leggings, but it's a shame they can't just sell them normally like a regular loving store. Any product that needs to rely on an MLM business structure should be regarded with extreme caution. It's also maddeningly confusing that both LuLaRoe and Rue La La exist, and they both sell women's clothing.

Also he thinks blacks commit more crimes because of their genes and their 'tribal roots'. From what I understand JonTron was forced out of the Game Grumps because he kept making more and more racist "jokes" that pretty much required entire segments of the video to just be cut out entirely. And when the videos are only ten minutes long that's not really feasible. Also he might have been showing up drunk and just generally being a prick. This is all hearsay, though.

Fallout 1 and 2 put a lot of work into showing the progression of post-war society like Vault City and the NCR, which Bethesda promptly threw out to have towns that consisted of 3 people living in scrap huts under a radioactive overpass because somehow after 200 years nobody has even bothered to sweep a drat floor. I feel bad for Obsidian being hamstrung by reusing so many assets for New Vegas, because I get the feeling that they'd have made much nicer settlements if they had the option.
