HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
My industry is full of stupid fucking people who have money. When they don’t have money anymore, we will kick them out of their offices, throw their branded SWAG into the bonfire and laugh at their misfortunes. Good riddance to people who overstayed their welcome the second they opened their mouths! DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT 200 WHUFFIE

Ok Abe, I’m going to call you out for the ridiculousness of this one. 90% of the article is about things that happened in places other than Joplin, MO. The acts are gruesome and disturbing, and there’s the distinct impression that you’re piling-on. Yet because the article is so wearying to read (and so fucking long and out-of-focus, sequenced like a Tarantino movie), the reader...

The Truth About Generation Entitlement →

goldman:
“They are the future of the workforce, yet they have earned a generational reputation bad enough to send shivers up the spine of mature small-business owners everywhere. They are Generation Entitlement, the ambitious Millennial children of baby boomers who grew up hearing “you can be whatever you want to be because you’re special.” And they are sick of the bad press.

On their favorite SNL skits that never made it on air … Sudeikis: Remember “Tiny Temps”?
Wiig: Basically, we were hired as temps in an office, but we were three inches tall, and didn’t we, like, kidnap Alec Baldwin’s daughter?
Sudeikis: Alec Baldwin was the host, and we talked in little tiny voices, and we became quite devious. I don’t know if there was murder involved, but there was certainly...

Dude, clearly you have never read an issue of Inc.
Oh, I know what they’re made of, I’m just reciting the material for the incoming freshmen. And for the 6th-year seniors who look like they’re well on their way to year 7.
“As a kid, David Karp, the founder of Tumblr, taught himself to code and dropped out of high school. Now 24 years old, Karp runs his company his way—and refuses to keep a schedule.”
That’s a great lede and a great intro picture. Does Inc. typically offer flattering coverage to Internet companies with zero profits and extended downtime? And would they be interested covering...

nickdouglas:
A related phenomenon is the transformation, courtesy of Facebook, of the verb “to like” from a state of mind to an action that you perform with your computer mouse, from a feeling to an assertion of consumer choice. And liking, in general, is commercial culture’s substitute for loving. The striking thing about all consumer products — and none more so than electronic devices and...

“More than a few New York City entrepreneurs were quick to point out that the babe situation in New York City trumps San Francisco’s any day. On this topic, one former New Yorker now happily married Silicon Valley VC said, “If you’re moving to San Francisco, just make sure to pack a sandwich.”” —Why New York City’s tech scene is thriving - TNW Industry

What I Learned In Joplin →
Holy moly. Talk about “reporting it harder”. I told u Stelter was a rock star.
This is the sort of initiative we’re losing in the world of journalism at a rapid rate, as we continue to fail to subsidize it on even a basic level while we make millionaires out of… Oprah.

theblueprint replied to your post: About a dozen people wrote articles yesterday…
isn’t UO’s entire hustle stealing “street culture” and selling it to midwestern mallternative kids? there’s a demand for “the look” without “the life”, and UO (or someone else) will always supply it, and the originators will always be mad.
Well, it’s fine for them to create “inspired work”...

New trend: everyone’s at the mall beer garden!
About a dozen people wrote articles yesterday saying that “Twitter put the smackdown on Urban Outfitters” for you-know-what. (Want to read? Don’t worry, Soup retweeted all of them!)
Your Bubble Bursted: UO has done this before and has never apologized or stopped doing it. People have gone viral with it before and it’s had no effect on the company’s practices. They...

David Roth: By the way, I KNOW A LOT ABOUT NICKELODEON APPARENTLY.
David Raposa: I’d agree, but I don’t want to show how much I know.
David Roth: I have neither kids nor excuse. A lot of cultural junk gets caught in my brain. It’s like that Pacific Garbage Gyre in here.
I relate to that statement in an uncanny way.

Blogging is stupid.
Blogs affect an unhealthy narcissistic attitude. One can spend a lifetime listing all of the blogs that happily remain focused on their topic, but our complaint is about how the blog culture focuses on the use of blogs as a personal extension. Finding avenues to express yourself is healthy, but the contemporary view of blogs make the blog author the focus, not...
