His friends call him spooky dick

These guys were so huge and then fell off the face of the planet

Two part comment:

I don’t think you should have to answer to anyone, but at the same time don’t sell yourself short.

Humans are social creatures by nature - even if you’re very introverted like me, you do need some sort of connection. In your case, it may not be connection you need, but build some redundancy in a system that works for you.

One of the things that I noticed as my 30s came and went was how situational friendships and relationships are. Most people you meet in life are just passing though your story. Very few stick.

I also realized how little effort most people put in to friendships. I’m always the one trying to maintain. They have my number but the phone never rings for the most part.

You get it

A friend and I have a saying about femme fatale women: I wouldn’t even try to fix her; I’d let her make me worse

He’s gonna need a big ol’ cable

Millennials losing their minds over this when we used to shout ‘fuck your couch!’ and Rick James, Bitch! all the time, before memes were a thing.

I suppose memes have always been memes, but they were simply auditory before

That’s super shitty dude. No one deserves that.

I think your admin can appoint you

You seem to think I, of all people, would post quality content.

If it makes me smirk, it ends up on Lemmy.

Careful, those boys will come after you

This is a valid meme, but garbage in, garbage out. their chicken breast consisted of >50% soy and couldn’t legally be called chicken anymore. Their buns smell awful, and that smell permeates everything. Nothing like biting into one of those bad boys that you ordered at 7 am, at lunch time, after it’s been smushed and jostled around in your cruise vest all day.

For the past 5 years I have been living proof that we do not need to be huddled together in one place to effectively do our jobs. I will die on this hill. Me too, thanks.

I get to enjoy the space I pay for, the way I want to, and as long as that isn’t negatively impacting my ability to do my job, I will not be convinced that it’s somehow not as efficient or as good as working in an office.

don’t forget the flexibility for things like kid drop off etc. If you have to duck out early you can easily make up the time at night or whatever.

IMO, the only reasons we are being forced into returning to the office is for middle management to feel like they’re doing something by literally looking over your shoulder, and so that business owners can justify spending so much money on the property where their office exists. Either they want to keep leasing the space from their fat cat real estate friends, or they need to somehow justify owning a large piece of land because their company is so big and successful, and they can waive their big building around like a dick to impress all the other CEOs.

preach

I agree with everything. I do damn good work, and while they have encouraged/mandated hybrid RTO, I just don’t go. No one calls me out on it other than the occasional ‘hey, it’d be good to see you again here for the next monthly meeting’. I’m happy to go if I NEED to go to the office, to meet a client or what have you, but otherwise, go eat a heaping bag of farts.

no? maybe?

The only thing that sucks in this meme are Subway sandwiches. Absolute trash. Everything flyspeck town has one. Lived off of them for lunches for years.

I can’t even stand the smell of walking by one

Nah but he does

This isn’t the original.
