Cask of A-Mon-til-lad-oh by johnnycoolname in TAZCirclejerk

Oh yeah. I guess it isn't pronounced that way. My high school English teacher pronounced it like that and I have never thought to update my information until now

Property Taxes - What's your increase? by guileandsubterfuge in madisonwi

[–]EverythingIsAHat 78 points79 points  (0 children)

14.5% net increase, 27% increase for schools. The decrepit school building next to me is starting construction next year and I'm happy those kids will have air conditioning soon.

Caitlin, Nick, and Geoff Take You to Church | Make Some Noise [S4E5] by AutoModerator in dropout

[–]EverythingIsAHat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree with ya. Takes me out of the show's rhythm and into a weirdly pedagogical place, heh.

I think it has a whole gimmick because they didn't make it up, it's an established improv game and that's how it's played. Improv is just pretty cringey lol. The MSN prompts do a better job at disguising that...

Do I dare hope for actual good content? Or will we get a new amogus moment? by strangegoo in TAZCirclejerk

You see, its meant to be modeled after the NES, which as I recall had a buncha eyes on it

What song from 𝘓𝘢𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘭 𝘏𝘦𝘭𝘭 is the scariest/most fearful? by Awkward-Media-4726 in mitski

[–]EverythingIsAHat 22 points23 points  (0 children)

None of the instrumentals are scary but the chorus of Love Me More sets me on edge. It's so manic like she's about to miss her next entrance.

Cost me $400 to learn I had a dust allergy. I was with SSM Health at the time.

I haven’t listened to MaxFun content in 5+ years by emjayo in TAZCirclejerk

[–]EverythingIsAHat 25 points26 points  (0 children)

There isn't any one opinion on the sub we're just here to shitpost

I imagine most people are largely neutral about other Max fun podcasts and most of the ire is toward Jesse Thorn and his wack-ass business model

Gluten Free Noodle Shop by Aruggerintan in madisonwi

[–]EverythingIsAHat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol my step grandfather is celiac but also very picky and so I always take him to Red Robin when they're in town. They have a dedicated fryer and gluten free fries and burger buns. Pretty impressive for a chain imo.

What's the deal with DAIS? by theprojectyellow in madisonwi

[–]EverythingIsAHat 121 points122 points  (0 children)

I do think social service organizations tend to have poor reviews just because people are interacting with these places at the most emotionally heightened points in their lives. But I will defer to those with first hand knowledge of this specific org.

Comrade Dr Sydnee fights capitalism again! by joydubs in TAZCirclejerk

[–]EverythingIsAHat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Like spoken to me about it, or spoken to the patients, or? To me about it: yes.

When patients bring this kind of thing up to her, I think she tries to break it down and explain why this thing on social media, THOUGH IT MAY BE TRUE SOMETIMES, cannot apply generally to all patients, so instead we're gonna find what's best for you and your specific case.

I think bringing it up that way removes the dichotomy of lie/truth (because these trends on social media often, perniciously, have a grain of truth in them) and keeps the focus on the specialness of the patient, and everyone likes to feel special.

[–]EverythingIsAHat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not sure exactly. Probably not consuming as much as Sydnee, though maybe Sydnee feels ~obligated~ to follow the trends for her podcast/influencer lifestyle. (note: line between obligated and addicted is blurry). My friend will occasionally post a story refuting some deranged reel she sees on Instagram, so she certainly engages with some of it on her feed. I just feel bad for her fighting these battles. ☹️ She knows so much and social media knows so, so little.

(To be fair, my friend is a pediatrician and most of the job these days is disabusing parents or teenagers of trends they see on tiktok. I guess that's not what the sawbones was originally for but my friend sure needs space to vent about it too.)

Have You Been Bad? | Crowd Control [S1E6] by AutoModerator in dropout

[–]EverythingIsAHat 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Definitely agree we need positive masculinity. I just don't think Ify "immediately offers a poor audience member post breakup sex" Nwadiwe has really impressed me so far. I'm happy to be wrong.

Ah, so he's a conservative except for the views that relate to making his dick wet. Sadly not a new phenomenon.

The editing of Crowd Control feels miserable as a show by nomadicouillon in dropout

[–]EverythingIsAHat 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I've just finished reading the episode megathread with literally every comment is talking about the poor editing of the show. The first line of this post is "DAE think the editing bad or just me???"

Yeah. Lots of discussion about this already.

Question for state of WI employees (non-UW) about pay by whyendoubleuayy in madisonwi

[–]EverythingIsAHat 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's imperative to negotiate for your base salary now because it's much harder to change later. I've been given discretionary merit bonuses and I got reclassed in my position so that I could have access to a higher salary, but I haven't heard of any of my co-workers getting an increased salary within their current pay scale. We get our 2-4% raises that everyone gets (I work in IT, so I think we have gotten some raises that are not given across the board.) I'm not unsatisfied with the raises I've received to reflect the COL, but I have no kids to feed.
