"You know how we should end veteran homelessness?"

"How?"

"We should force citizens to give them space in their homes!"

"...Did you just propose a violation of the 3rd Amendment? How the hell do you even do that anymore?"

Unfortunate truth: when we've declared war on a negative abstract concept, it has produced more of that condition (poverty, drugs, terrorism, etc.).

If your card game ends after 3 turns or less, you're doing it wrong. The fun is from the playing. Broken quick kill decks are the antithesis of a good game. It's on the designer to make sure that doesn't happen.

Manager: I think we all have a good working relationship here.

Me: [thinking] Actually, most of us hate you and are hoping you die in a freak gym accident, you verbally abusive scumbag.

Not the worst boss I had. In the top 5, though. she was fired later for incompetence - turns out she annoyed the distract manager as much as the employees.

I enjoy pumpkin spice latte unironically. I think it's because I first tried it before it was a meme and decided I liked it. And since I like it, I'm not going to stop liking it just because it's popular.

(It is, interestingly, the only Starbucks item I do enjoy. I don't like their coffee in general.)

At a previous job, the boss gave me a crappy attitude in the morning. Her mistake? Doing it in front of an elderly customer who likes me.

Do you know how it feels to be publicly excoriated and humiliated by a grandma? My boss did.

I gave the grandma an extra discount at check out. That boss was later fired for incompetence.

A powerful motivator is the acceptance and recognition of peers and superiors. Yet too often said recognition is withheld, sometimes out of lack of understanding of good management techniques or, worse, on purpose. The latter can be classified as a form of emotional abuse.

I love guys who just reply, "No, you're wrong" without stating why. I just laugh in their face, post something snarky, and move on. Not worth the time to refute someone who just wants to embarrass themselves.
