Random Rants LXVI: NO, **YOUR** THREAD TITLES SUCK!!

[Snerk]

Don't most guys have little in common with their friends? Because most guys are too lazy in making an effort of making new friends. I know I am.

I recently saw this video on that very topic. It might just be come in hand.

Why did you look that up?

And I guess I sounded way more serious than I was. My close friends are all nice. With the less close I don't hang around necesarily that much, and then it's also most often more a feeling like "my god, he's such a dick/she's such a [apparentlyAutocensored] when he/she is drunk", and not something super serious.
But enough to not hang out more with them.

Yeah, actually true, and not a problem. 2 of my closest friends are very different to me, and that's all good as it is .

Why did you look that up?

I didn't. It was recommended to me (presumably) because Dodie Clark is a friend and former flatmate of Evan Edinger, who I follow on YouTube.

Actually, we share an overwhelming proportion of our genome with practically everybody.

Genetically speaking, we might as well be, given that we also share 50% of our DNA with the humble banana.

I don't understand how people can say with a straight face that Western society is a meritocracy given the emphasis on networking.

Depends on how you define merit, I suppose. In a lot of jobs, shmoozing, flattering and ass-kissing are part of the standard professional tool-kit, so mastering those skills is itself a demonstration of merit. Absurd, yes, but that's "post-industrial" capitalism for you.

For some reason Facebook isn't letting me type in the "reply" box. Normally this wouldn't affect me but I actually need to communicate with someone by facebook now.

Communicate via stickers and gifs instead!

Aji, the same thing happened to me earlier this year. Just type it up on Notepad and paste it in. It's the least troublesome method I could find.

Yeah bro. We cousins.

I have a feeling that this implies my mom.

Beware of that yellow fruit. It's only fake humility.

It's been some eight days and seven and half hours since my last cigarette.

 

[Arakhor]

Keep going, B!

 

[Takhisis]

It's great news, you've stopped poisoning yourself every day! Raves thread is that way ------->

 

[BvBPL]

It doesn't feel great in the least This is not a night out with the lads. I would not recommend this to anyone.

I only accept people into my circle that hold only the exact same views as myself and submit themselves to my divine will. All others are executed when possible for the heretics they are.

 

[Takhisis]

But if they have the exact same views then each considers himself divine. Thus, they cannot submit to your divine will, as they have one of their own.
