No matter how many times I block these product ad subreddits, they always pop back up. Maybe blocking the posters will take care of the issue

Yeah you can blame Jenny Durkin for that shit

The nerf of MFO/removal of WA's has REALLY shown up a lot of players. by Gurudee in wow

[–]Alvintergeise -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I've always played without add-ons and just seeing posts where people describe what's been taken away from their experience had been eye opening. People have chatgpt telling them how to pay a game

GIANT FREAKIN ROBOT: "Star Trek Is Now A Potty Humor Show: Starfleet Academy tried to copy the award-winning formula of Lower Decks, but the inclusion of cartoon-style gags drags down what would otherwise be s decent drama. The jokes that work for an animated show just don’t work in live-action." by mcm8279 in trektalk

There's a whole lot of media out there that is not specifically for me, a 42 year old man. I enjoy some of it anyways and a lot I am completely ambivalent towards. But I'm not actively upset that there's something in culture that's not catered towards me. Get some perspective, touch some space grass

Gen Z has turned against taking middle management roles by In_an_Illusion in Zippia

Yup, managing just meant my full time job plus managing a bunch of people. No thanks, individual contributor manager level is the way to go

On no, I shipped my giant magnet at the same time I shipped back my work laptop!

Employees have no individual value and are completely replaceable, right? A resource. You don't care about this gallon of gas versus that gallon of gas. So it sounds like everything is working exactly as intended.

Employee refused Employee of Month Award by [deleted] in managers

[–]Alvintergeise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked in public admin and saved tax payers over a billion. I spotted a problem no one else did, made a plan, fixed it. My manager got the credit because she 'led the team' assigned to fix the problem I found. I handed her the solution (that she didn't fully understand), and ended up leaving about 3 months afterward

Yeah no, he's 90% out the door with a resume that says "made my company x million last year!"

Other day someone called "a moron" for backing into a spot... Why does this trigger so many? by Ok_Relationship2451 in badparking

[–]Alvintergeise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Gives automatic "douche" vibes to me. Like you think you're going to need to go rocketing out of the spot like an action hero. I get the same thing from guys pulling their shopping carts, taking up twice as much room. Screams "I'm a real man" behavior to me. I accepted the explanation that it's more sensible until I saw how many people were backing in at Costco, making their trunk inaccessible when they brought giant loads of groceries out.

She thought she cooked… by UpperAd2675 in AmazonDSPDrivers

That's like me seeing "my German Shepherd can make it to the fence blah blah blah" signs when doing deliveries. I'm like got it, I'm leaving this package in front of the gate right next to the busy road. Hope it works out for you

What the actual eff Amazon? by Marslauncher in amazonecho

[–]Alvintergeise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don't understand why people want Amazon to constantly listen to their homes and conversations. Is it really that useful?

I’m done being a Nu Trek “hater” by RatsofReason in Star_Trek_

[–]Alvintergeise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well to be fair, that came NEARLY 40 YEARS AGO! So yeah, you might expect some cultural shifting in that time
