“The mental gymnastics required to hate Mike Vick while deleriously cheering on Big Ben are incredible.”

Truth: I read this and laughed, but deep down I was fighting the yinzer resentment.

“decked out in the jerseys they wore to church”

I’m starting to think it will go the way of boxing: neglected but living on. Right now though it’s like boxing was in the 1970s.

I’d also like some inverted versions of this where only the lead person sticks around and the band starts to suck, the keystone being Axl-only Guns ‘n Roses. Corgan-only Smashing Pumpkins or Page Hamilton-only Helmet are also pretty bad.

“By the way, I have no clue when I need to start teaching my kids about cards.”

They bite humans, too. Why do they love college campuses so much?

Synergy does have a legitimate definition as a legitimate idea, it’s just been turned into a fucking obnoxious-as-hell meaningless thing by self-important robots.

I’m OK with “colleagues”. You could always use “compatriots” or “contemporaries”.

I’m mostly with you except for dumping on equity. Ownership of profit engines is exactly what let’s the cold-blooded corporate leadership be cold-blooded! Yes, at a startup, equity can suck because it’s much riskier and you’re not getting a salary. But being paid wages instead of owning a big chunk / all of the…

Amen. They took all the hatred in those moving vans too!
