Used to have an admin that would fully spell out every word except ‘pls’.

“pls don’t microwave fish in the breakroom”, etc.

You spell out every other word… is ‘please’ really that hard to write?

I legit got an e-mail from Facebook telling me that I should join Facebook because “no one uses e-mail anymore”. Ummmm…..well someone must be still using e-mail and No.

Wait. I thought we were going to be replaced with robots. What do they need AI for? To interview the robots?

People keep forgetting that these companies’ product is stock price, not whatever they’re advertising at any given moment.
Their “CEOs” have gotten sloppy because the grift has gotten so easy they naturally assume everyone is in on it. If everyone is in on the grift, there’s no need to lie about it.

Looks like the Oligarchs are serious about crashing the economy.

That sounds like a good plan, except for the cautionary tale of the Golgafrinchams from Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy:

Golgafrincham was a planet, once home to the Great Circling Poets of Arium. The descendants of these poets made up tales of impending doom about the planet. The tales varied; some said it was going to crash into the sun, or the moon was going to crash into the planet. Others said the planet was to be invaded by twelve-foot piranha bees and still others said it was in danger of being eaten by an enormous mutant star-goat.

These tales of impending doom allowed the Golgafrinchans to rid themselves of an entire useless third of their population. The story was that they would build three Ark ships. Into the A ship would go all the leaders, scientists and other high achievers. The C ship would contain all the people who made things and did things, and the B Ark would hold everyone else, such as hairdressers and telephone sanitisers. They sent the B ship off first, but of course, the other two-thirds of the population stayed on the planet and lived full, rich and happy lives until they were all wiped out by a virulent disease contracted from a dirty telephone.

Tell your coworker to review it with his AI and then ship it.

Conservatism is the attempt to rationalize greed.

Heck, the US can't even standardize on meters. We have volt meters, amp meters, flow meters, sound meters...

Thanks for the tip on Guhl.

I'm not familiar with Guhl. When I did a search, the first result was for Guhl Motors. My thought was, "Thank goodness my motor oil won't change formula." 😀

Agreed. You nailed it about all the changes.

Nice strategy, but I'm not going to buy 10 bottles of shampoo, not that I would have anywhere to store them if I did.
