From the Washington Post:

AdBlockers

There should be no barriers to people getting information and you shouldn’t have to suck on advertising in order to improve yourself or those people around you.

The Vampire Bezos owns the Washington Post and he should do something decent and run it in the public interest.

Do you need any more loot you bald fuck?

Doctor/Dentist Appointments that totally urk your ass!

wtf

RealLife's avatarFML.....

Ok, so before we get started, if profanity, or the damn truth offends you, do not proceed.

So I’m a truth teller, I say how it is, without a sugar coat. So let’s get down to WTF? ? Have you ever had an appointment with a Doctor or Dentist, or any medical establishment, and sat in the most uncomfortable chair in a waiting room, with screaming kids, people sneezing and coughing like TB is free today for you and everyone. And it’s either too hot or it’s too cold, And the TV has some stupid pharmaceutical advertisement on, and then your phone dies, Not to mention the asshole who sits on their damn phone talking to Suzy from Minnesota, it’s like, hey, bitch, ” Shut the fuck up and take that shit outside” My fucking ass is falling asleep!! And then the thought of using the nasty bathroom, sends you…

Am I evil?

Schizo's avatarStruggling with Schizoaffective Disorder

Is a question that I ask myself quite a bit. I don’t do evil things, at least I think so. Yet I still can’t squash the conflict in my head as to whether or I not I am. I’ve always tried to be an extremely introspective person, ever since I discovered the meaning of the word. Whether I am successful in that conquest is not something I believe I’m qualified to answer. The question of my designation more than likely resides in the fact that I can’t mind my own business, and the fact I can’t leave a question unanswered.

Most humans see themselves as the hero in their own story. It’s extremely difficult for a person to accept that something was a result of their own actions, showcased specifically in car accidents. Sure, it’s an insignificant situation. Sometimes though, car crashes can be fatal. Especially drunk driving. Most car…

Tips for disagreeable assholes who have or want friends

Disagreeableness isn’t a curse or a mark of a demon. In fact, it’s a valuable trait for making friends and getting ahead in your social life.

I know I should write a better introduction, but fuck that. We’re on my turf here. I don’t want to put effort into this introduction, and you can’t make me.

Acknowledge the value of diplomacy and tact

Honesty doesn’t have to be brutal, but it has to hurt sometimes. Life is pain (but not always).

Image result for brutal honesty

Hitting people with brutal honesty then claiming “I’m not an asshole, I’m just honest” is a dick move if you get validation from the brutality as much as from the honesty.

Unless you’re on the autism spectrum, you have the natural ability to read social cues that inform you on how to behave. Use it. There’s no point in unnecessarily crossing boundaries or pissing people off to fuel self-righteousness.

howmuchisyourlifeworth's avatarHow Much Is Your Life Worth

Why should a programmer have to go through 200 questions, a programming test, have a github portfolio, a website portfolio, a custom cover letter. ONLY for an employer to not even give a call back or a human email saying they were rejected?

Oh and if you just try to simply submit your application and refuse to do these bullshit ass tests/portfolio then people think you’re lazy. How the fuck am I lazy for not wanting to throw hundreds of hours of my life away on this bullshit job application process.

how the fuck do I do this? (write a book)

It’s a Tuesday morning, and I’m late for work. I was supposed to work at 10am, now it’s 10:33 am. I got lost in the Palanca Awards application page, followed the rabbit hole to see a bunch of people getting their books published, their essays awarded, and all other things that “aspiring” writers want and “legit” writers have — a published work. Better, a published “body of work.”
