I am once again begging corporations to run any and all copy past twelve-year-old boys to see if they start snickering uncontrollably before going live with it.
@rharang We need a “12 year old as a service” platform out there.
@philip @rharang That's just every social media site, already :D
@svelmoe @rharang You have a point ;) You could wrap a neat API around submitting a sanitized post, waiting for the online reactions, and then return some result indicating how funny people found it. Use that as a signal before you decide to actually go with it.
@philip @rharang lol, filing this one under "we're already reliving enough of turn of the last century, don't give anyone ideas about reintroducing child labour"
@rharang They clearly aren't watching cultural touchstones like Critical Role either... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RuAsxmppME&t=876s
@rharang This first time I (mis)heard someone mention this company in a meeting, I almost spit out my drink.

@rharang

I'll just leave this right here

@nlarson830 @rharang
That is at least, from a real place, and not something they come up with...

@nixxo @rharang

True, it was indeed taken from that feature of Italy.

@nlarson830 @nixxo @rharang make a pilgrimage almost every year when I go to Mugello. Lovely pass. Fantastic on a bike
@rharang counterpoint: please don't, I need these little gems to get through the week.
@rharang @RainofTerra another one is seeing what it looks like when you install Cloud to Butt Plus. “The most open cloud ever” was a good one from IVM a few years ago
@cartermp @rharang @RainofTerra Careful with that plug-in. The early versions would also change input in forms when you submitted them; I once sent a cover letter in regards to my application for the position of Butt Engineeer.
@karlkatzke @rharang @RainofTerra oh yeah, I had an oopsie involving printed magazines with that one. I owed a coworker his favorite whiskey.
@rharang I'm confused. What's wrong with free announcement proxy? Or is it a no reply mailbox for their founders annual parlay?
@rharang I'm almost 43 and did an immediate double take. SOMEONE knew what they were doing.
@rharang judging from the ratio on video portals, this seems popular
@rharang corporate : "I don't understand the problem. It's getting very good numbers on social media."
@llewelly @rharang We should call this the “Morbius Paradox”
@rharang to be fair, I’m also unlikely to reply whilst fapping.
@rharang uh, can you maybe forward that email to me? I think I need to go yell at someone when I’m back at keyboard. (joseph.holsten@corpdomain). Censor as needed.
@rharang what even was the intention here? Like wow.
@rharang
I am old, and my twelve-year-old boy is 28, but I still heard him laugh on his 12-year-old pitch when I read this.
@rharang TIL
As a non-native speaker 😅

@rharang do the kids still say "fap" these days?

Or is it just my old ass snickering at this? LOL

@rharang @alyssam_infosec I’m in my forties and I snicker uncontrollably when I see Oracle Cloud.

Disclaimer : it may or may not be because I’m still waiting for the free trial account that I opened to learn Kubernetes for a job interview take home exercise three years ago to be activated.
