That sound mixing…oof. Amateurish. Still, a good performance.
Bluck
Vegan food is the stuff you wouldn’t put in normal food because it’s too low-quality and shitty.
That ain’t no kinda way to live.
Overshare
TIFU by oversharing with coworkers.
Women always cry like little babies when they’re held to exactly the same standards men are.

Trash
Next step after parent scammed of enitre life savings.
Throw entire parent in the trash for being useless.
Exec Function
You misspelled “executed.”
Went Amos
One of the proudest and funniest moment of my life is when I called some idiot libertarian a “Randroid.” Then, he threatened to kill me.
So I said now is as a good time as any, go ahead and try. He backed down instantly and left in a huff.
And yes, this was all in person and face to face, about 1998. Never saw that dumbass again.
Heroku
Too bad. Heroku was far more sensible, scalable and easy to use than shit-ass Kubernetes. It had better ideas, better execution, better management and was far more capable. Kubernetes is just an enormous stinky bundle of insecure, slow and poorly-working crap code in comparison.
Why in the world did that win? Mostly because it was free, I guess.
But like a lot of open source stuff, it is only free if you assign zero value to your time.
She Self-Drove
And yet we constantly hear about how incredibly unsafe self-driving cars are. Huh, I wonder why. 😉
Cope Fact
Indeed. I’m not Asian, but I don’t have to grind to utterly defeat nearly anyone in anything to do with reading comprehension and understanding large volumes of disparate data really quickly and thoroughly.
In that arena, I can do what takes normies days (if they can do it at all1) in 20-30 minutes. There is no grind. I can just do it as easily as water flows downhill. Pretending I have to work hard at it would only be a cope by others.
I took a nap during one of the big standardized tests (CTSB?) back in school and still mogged every kid in the state but two others2. To say that I wasn’t even trying would be an understatement. For at least half the exam period, I wasn’t even awake.
Quality Learing
Damn, I could be rich now if I’d moved to Minnesota and opened a “daycare” center.
Mei Semones – I can do what I want
This is like Rush, if Rush were good. That’s some complex stuff going on in that song.
How To Live
Love life, unafraid of death, paratrooper forever, epic girlfriend and money for play.
Not a bad damn way to be. Go me. I’ve come a long way from getting told how terrible I am daily.
