Eh, he’s only been here 3 years. We’ll move on and soon he’ll be bitching about all these techbro’s that ruined SF.

I can be a bit flakey, BUT always on time...when not flaking.

Fine! Go ahead and take cute baby and family pictures. BUT...please include yourself! I need to know who made these children. I’m YOUR friend and probably don’t even know your kids. (family gets a pass, cuz family usually gets a pass)
