Delphia,

Oh come on… you’re leaving out Eric and Jnr? Thats just asking for a revenge plot reboot.

Delphia,

KFC had a promotion 20 nuggets for $10 (with the local conversion it was a good price) so my friends and I went into the local one, spoke to the manager and said “We’re going to order 600 nuggets on saturday night at 6pm, is that ok?” and the manager said it was. We called the store at like 3pm and reminded them and made sure it was still ok. It was. We placed the order online at 6pm exactly, waited half an hour and went to get them. We turned up and the shift runner said "Oh, we assumed that order was a prank so we didnt make it. We asked them to make it and she said “Its the middle of the dinner rush, Im not making you 600 nuggets.”

Fucking cunts.

Delphia,

All this is funny and all but I want to see what happens when none of their shit works and they try going full sovcit in county.

Delphia,

I think you misunderstand, I dont think theres a lot of video footage from county JAIL. Like once all the wheels fall off this bitch and they are telling a corrections officer about how what they are doing is illegal and they are going to put a lein on the jail.

Delphia,

You want carnage? Can we please feed it the entire history of 4chan?

Lemmy: Man fuck housing developers!

Also Lemmy: Man I cant find a house!

Edit: Yes affordability is the problem, but if demand keeps outrunning supply the situation will NEVER improve. The only way landlords will start to bring their prices down is when the tenant is the one with options.

Delphia,

If we dont build more demand will just keep outstripping supply more and more.

Delphia,

So they are building these for the fun of it?

The more houses built the better supply gets, the better supply gets the more prices will drop. Every one of these thats built and someone in the inner city scrapes together the cash to buy in suburbia frees up an apartment.

Delphia,

The thing is Lemmy is a pretty terrible cross section of society. Theres plenty of people in inner city apartments with solid careers who are fed the fuck up with living in an overpriced shoebox when they could buy a house in the suburbs, but those are overpriced too.

The more affordable all types of housing get the more everyone benefits, more supply is the only way to counter more demand.

Delphia,

Thats a seperate part of the same problem. They already have private buyers beat on buying power, less supply doesnt hurt them at all.

Delphia,

You can do both you know, its not an either or situation.

Report: School Shootings Either Way Down Or Too Depressing For Media To Cover (www.theonion.com)

Shedding light on the possible reasons for a dip in such news coverage, a report released Friday found that school shootings were either way down or too depressing for the media to cover. “Really, there are two possibilities here: It could be that there’s been some remarkable progress on getting guns out of the hands of...

Dont be fishist man! How dare you assume his species. If he identifies as a salmon its fine, so long as he doesnt swim up my stream to spawn I’m fine with it.

Delphia,

I know this isnt popular on here, but its because Windows 10 is pretty damn great.

For damn near EVERYTHING 99.99% of users do 99.99% of the time it just fucking works.

Delphia,

What I hate? I saw 10 times the amount of Mariah Carey memes than times I heard the song. Everyone spamming the same tired recycled memes about the same shit every year.

Its more tiresome than the songs.

What are some of the stranger adaptations/adjustments to corporate culture you've noticed, and imagine emerging?

By corporate culture I mean like what you see with GoogleYouTube/MetaFacebook/etc. to accommodate advertisers and influence people to engage and acknowledge adverts. In turn, by adapt/adjust I mean how some people bleep curses out like fuck/shit/etc., say unalive instead of commit suicide/kill oneself, and make notorious video...

Delphia,

I cant find the video but there was a very serious accident in Australia at a theme park and several people died. The ambulance crews who attended reported that “The patients suffered injuries incompatible with life” and the media had a fucking field day about how paramedics shouldnt be making jokes and how cold and insensitive it was and blah blah blah.

The Ambulance service had a press conference the following day which was one of the absolute best public ass chewings Ive ever seen. The guy tore into the media like a wolverine. Heavily paraphrased but - “Our paramedics are not doctors, legally speaking they cannot pronounce someone dead. They do however know that a man who has been literally torn to pieces by heavy machinery cant be helped. They have to stand there, look at that scene and make a realistic professional assessment that the patient has suffered injuries that nobody could survive and report that. Then they have to look at the next person… and report that professionally too… and then the next one… And without doing any investigation into our procedures and the why of them you decide to report on OUR professionalism!?!”

I made a very crude one with 2 of my workmates today, but one choked on his coffee so I’m proud of it.

for an audience of 2… possibly the wittiest joke ive thought of off the top of my head… for 2 people.

Delphia,

The problem with event sec (and I ran large events for a decade) is that organisers often dont treat you like you’re anything but a bunch of fuckwits and dont tell you anything about planned stunts or anything beyond “Dont let anyone past this point without a pass” asking questions and wanting to be in the loop often gets you told to “do your job” which is why I was very anal retentive about what was and wasnt our responsibility in our contracts and what we were/werent liable for. Often the “talent” or people attending will decide they want to do something off script and you have to take a moment to decide wether or not to crash tackle someone somewhere they shouldnt be who might also be a keynote speaker or the headlining artists manager… its almost always a shitshow of not enough info. I have a lovely story about a bass player for a band not wearing a lanyard and starting a fight with two of the security when they wouldnt let him back stage… theres an NDA involved though because he broke one staff members cheekbone before getting knocked the fuck out.

The absolutely idiotic part was taking him to the ground, that outnumbered and not being aggressive it was unnecessary. Once it goes to the ground it almost always turns into a shitshow.

    While I dont like 90% of their catalogue, the Pentatonix version is amazing.
