This site disclaimer is a great in joke reference: The old Pied Piper “flute player” logo was referencing the fairy-tale character and in no way was meant to suggest a sexual act involving either the mouth or ear of the figure depicted. Apologies to any who were offended, and the logo has been changed to our current green “PP”!

But, thanks to the whim of Jack and his army of salespeople—who resemble nothing so much as corn-fed date rapists escaped from a frat at some nightmarish Midwestern land-grant university

Shooting Blanks posted:Sometimes art mimics life, sometimes life mimics art. I sell IT services for a living and just got contacted by a recruiter for an opening. This company is almost exactly like Pied Piper, to the point where I'd wonder if someone was loving with me if they didn't have 200 employees on LinkedIn. The CEO's profile even documents how he successfully positioned his previous company to get acquired. I got a laugh for how the show managed to produce billboard ads for PP along the 101 highway. Even better the ad was so vague and glossy it blended in perfectly with other startup/software ad companies along the highway.

Toplowtech posted:"The HBO show’s May 1 episode featured two stallions going at it, and the animal rights organization was not amused". Yeah, typical PETA style homophobia. lol quote:In the scene, Richard (Thomas Middleditch) goes to the stables to find Pied Piper’s newly-appointed CEO Jack Barker (Stephen Tobolowsky). Jack is there watching a stallion graphically mounting a mare.

buddhanc posted:The cell phone holder was perfect as well. I see hundreds of those guys out at lunch every week wearing the button down short sleeve shirt with some reebok shoes and socks that come up just a bit too high. And of course they have their cell phone attached to their belt and the badge. It's the engineer / tech guy uniform. The cell phone protector has to be one of those massive clunky cases like the Otter Defender. etalian fucked around with this message at 14:35 on May 10, 2016 |

MiddleOne posted:What is this ceo on rollerblades thing everyone keeps referring to? They met with a Google techie who runs the GoogleX group and he wore rollerblades while talking to them. He also fell over when trying to badge out of the meeting area . also TJ Miller negged Elon Musk after the screening quote:Some Valley big shots have no idea how to react to the show,” Miller told me. “They can’t decide whether to be offended or flattered. And they’re mystified by the fact that actors have a kind of celebrity that they will never have—there’s no rhyme or reason to it, but that’s the way it is, and it kills them.” Miller met Musk at the after-party in Redwood City. “I think he was thrown by the fact that I wasn’t being sycophantic—which I couldn’t be, because I didn’t realize who he was at the time. etalian fucked around with this message at 02:28 on Jun 18, 2016 |

Electromax posted:Swastikas ruining CodeRag's comments section would be a funny subplot on the show, doubt they'd care. It's just an easter egg for fans. My favorite tie-in ad was the time they put billboards up on the always hideous 101.

I hope the show puts more parody ads up on the 101. Made me laugh my rear end off when I say the promo billboards and how it captured the vague, weird feel of Tech Bro startup ads.

Some kids even committed suicide as a result. You better to get a acceptance from Stanford or you have no value!
