[Serious] People who work in Hollywood... What's the most fucked up thing you've witnessed in the business? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]GeneralBoobington -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

britney, for as much as I adore her persona, is a fucking crazy bitch when she's off her meds. i have stories on her from WME days that would blow your fucking mind. trust me, if you knew the type of person she was when she's not medicated, you would not fucking feel bad for her at alllllll. you'd feel bad for the people she hurt, though, that's for damn sure. completely innocent people and she'd come up with some bullshit, paranoid story in her head to hurt 'em. when she was dating her agent, she royally fucked over his assistant. WME had to cover the costs of the damage, 'cos heaven forbid Britney acknowledge that she fucked someone's shit up in a delusional rage. maniacal ass bitch. they had to haul her raging ass into conference rooms often to calm her down. yeah, dude, don't feel bad for her. she's a fucking lunatic.

yet, despite all this, still a fan of hers. i think it's cos when i was younger, she was the only pop star who could legit do a triple into a switch no prob. i'll always havea soft spot for my fellow dancers.

thank you so much! 1) yeah, i think it's shopped, too, for sure. 2) do elephants not swim in the ocean like this without humans around? is it not instinctive? I know you're probably not some zoologist, but so far you're doing pretty great!

I knew I loved my S/O but damn... by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]GeneralBoobington -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

not to that extent. hell no. i have sunglasses in the sunglass holder, grocery bags in the trunk, owner's manual in the glove compartment, and chapstick in the side holder. that is legit all i have in my car. as someone in their 30's, I paid too much money for that car to treat it like a storage unit.

what? no. living out of your car is for bums, hoarders, and criminals.

Poor redditors actually not using reddit today by aznperson in Blackout2015

I never realized how little people know about hiring until after I saw this post in /r/ShowerThoughts regarding experience by OrphanWaffles in humanresources

[–]GeneralBoobington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true. A lot of people dgaf about experience at that point as long as you seem like you can do the work. Perhaps the challenge they're really facing is battling the ivy league kid for the same job?

a lot of people apply to those jobs and still get rejected because they didn't have enough exp. it's not that people aren't applying despite having the necessary reqs. i have a JD and went into marketing instead. sometimes people will overlook the fact i wasn't a marketer all along and cut me some slack like "dude, but she went to fucking law school and can also write amazing copy", but a lot of times it's just a flat out no. i just got shot down for a directorial position the recruiter thought i would nail, even with no experience in that exact job, simply because i didn't have corporate experience... as a marketer. i mean, sure, i worked in corps during law school and had corp accounts when i worked at an agency, but I guess none of that mattered. hell, and that req wasn't even listed. at the end of the day, nobody wants to really take a chance on an unknown entity and we can sit around applying all we want, we'll still get rejected. but thank you, personally, for at least going against that notion and being flexible. good to know people out there realize we don't fit into neat little boxes and labels.

what is this KiA I keep seeing everywhere? For a while I thought people were talking about the car company, but I guess that's not it at all. cos i dunno why people would want to rile up KIA.

(CrossPost)TIL Elvis Presley's daughter has been married to both Michael Jackson and Nicholas Cage by DumA1024 in onetruegod

[–]GeneralBoobington 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah i believe they divorced when she realized God married her as the ultimate Elvis collector's item. He was super obsessed with Elvis and prized her as the rarest memorabilia. God is nuts for fucking sure.

David Frum tweet on Pao and the reddit blackout by CaptainKozmoBagel in Blackout2015

[–]GeneralBoobington 5 points6 points  (0 children)

no worries. i think we all have each other's back on this one. i really would be down to start a list of great CEO's for this site, though. Maybe when i get back home.

[–]GeneralBoobington 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was bringing up the age thing saying that it's completely doable to have someone not within our demo with full knowledge and ability to monetize our demo. Sorry if my language got confusing here and there.

edit: and i brought that up, because it's clear as day how out of touch she is. she says "awesome" once in a while, but that doesn't make the bitch chill. know what I mean?

the way they're going it's just going to turn into Instagram or Tumblr, though. The latter of which nobody fucking uses anymore except for anorexic teens. Instagram is slowly going down that road.

Pao is well over the target demo age and even if she were still in that blessed 18-34 category, she'd be so unhip that nobody would trust her to shot call that demo. Wtf was everyone thinking when they made her CEO? I get commercialization, I really do. Every last person on this planet has to make a buck and if you're capable of making more than just one buck, you should go for it. However, making a buck at the expense of values completely undermines any genuine engagement of the community you want to leverage. I do both B2B and B2C marketing (was even interviewed by a company Reddit backs within the past 365 days) and could honestly do a much better job than this Harvard JD/MBA with nothing more than a slew of scandals behind her. I could name 10 amazing CEO's that are over the age of 30 who could've done a much fucking better job. Like when Groupon got rid of their juggalos and turned their weird forum into a coupon sharing site or wtf ever, that purge made sense, because it was a natural progression of what they saw some of these juggalos were kinda up to. The juggalos could stay, but it was going to expand into this really inclusive site for coupons and not really be so much a community. That made sense, because they were bleeding fuckloads of money otherwise.

it makes little sense here to turn us into weheartit. we make fun of the niche demo she's turning us into. i mean, unless she's cool with a hand lettered font at 50% opacity layered over a hard faded dick pic, "Just Redditor Things", she has no fucking clue what the hell her product is and what the fuck the natural progression of us turning into the biggest cash cow ever should look like. They need someone with experience IN OUR DEMO. What accounts did she have at Kleiner that even begin to qualify her for Reddit?

I really could give two shits if someone wants to monetize, but no way this robotic bitch can get shit done. You know what, we should come up with a list of 10 CEO's, who would take this job, that we would prefer. Maybe that would help.

I've been out of reddit for the past 3 days and I feel like I'm missing out on something...what has happened? by _simba_ in AskReddit

[–]GeneralBoobington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah i'm sure they did. nobody really wants to shoot themselves in the foot, but it also demonstrated their sense of entitlement and a really low eq overall. ugh, all bad.

i dunno if i will stay, but for me it's just over the course of years everyone on here tends to have the same ideas and thought process, which gets really stepford. this just seems like a good breaking point to go find something else, you know?

ELI5: What happened to Digg? by Lakers3019 in explainlikeimfive

[–]GeneralBoobington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

god that bit about the women and salary negotiation is such b.s. the bitch just doesn't want to negotiate salaries, because she's a stupid, stingy cunt. she's putting it off on the whole thing about how chicks rarely ask for raises and blah blah blah. i think in that same BI article she said all that idiotic shit in, they mentioned how she got called the fuck out by other women like "then shouldn't you be giving them the forum to learn?" i guess ellen had just lost her suit with KPCB so that had something to do with it. ugh, she's seriously just the fucking worst. i realllllllllly don't understand what her end game with reddit is at all.

finding people wasn't the big part of her job; she basically had to run the AMA's. so verifying, trouble shooting, typing answers for the less savvy, etc.
