Something had to fill the void after Chasing The Dragon went broke.

I feel like it's a positive that I don't recognize this reference at all.

It was pretty popular in the oilfield, the "dragon" being a reference to oil I guess rather than opium where the phrase originated. It was especially popular among people who like to pat themselves on the back for supposedly working harder than people they look down upon, similar to the dirty hands clean money crowd does now.

You were better off not knowing.

There's some 107.7FM station that started in Vancouver and it's a spray of shit. That enhances the suck of not being able to listen to 107.7 The End from Seattle.
Choke on my balls!

Choosing to listen to local radio is the musical equivalent of pressing the "View Post" button on a yolo post.

It's from Seattle, you bell-end!! That ain't local.
You should be mocking how terrible my photo of that Aprilia in Acid Gold turned out. There's a wide variety of angles you could take on that. I'd go for the Ryobi/DeWalt colour thing, but you'd likely start more along the lines of poor focus.
Pick a lane!

When I say local radio I mean any radio station anywhere. I wonder though, do you turn it on before or after you read your newspaper?

Being yelled at on a Monday morning by a customer who is requesting immediate field support to come fix something that they broke, the field is busy, no one is available and its my fault apparently

When you have to piss, and your boss shows up in your office, since he's back from China unannounced, and then he spends an hour and a half jabbering on about a bunch of shit that you don't believe and can barely focus because you are concentrating on keeping your pants dry.

Everyone who has anything that says "Dirty hands clean money" on it. What, did you finally run out of "No Fear" clothes/stickers you fucking loser?

While I certainly agree.
Company is local and supports veterans which is a positive.

Edit: Car for sale ads, typically classic cars. First picture is "what it could look like when restored". Followed by actual pictures of the vehicle.

Just list your shit as it is.

When people say "Don't get me wrong, but..."

Well then speak more clearly.

Yes that. I personally think it's the responsibility of the person sending the message to make sure it can be understood.

THree versions of the same thing:
1) When someone tells you that they've already bought some parts to go together, and they don't go together, and you have to either pretend you don't know so that they leave you alone, or spend hours explaining that the parts they bought can never be compatible.
2) Being brought into a project when it's already fucked.
3) Your company spends vast R&D budget creating a product that does not meet the needs of the customers or address any unmet need.
