Dot's Pretzels. In what world are these worth $6/bag?

For example, the bearded guy in this painfully unfunny clip the algorithm just fed to me. I guess he's the host of whatever show this is?

oooh, that's bad. Worse than Dot's Pretzels.

If Snyder's are $2, Dot's should be $2.25.

Fake laughter used to bother me too. I have arrived at a viewpoint where at least they are attempting to be positive. You know, fake it till you make it. They even say that if you force yourself to smile when you’re not happy you actually start to feel happier.

vendors using "parking lot" during demos or meetings.

I'd never heard this being used to table something until this year.

Annoying!

Not defending it, but we've had paper on the wall of our meetings for decades for a parking lot.

I cannot stand people who talk endlessly. How the fuck do you go on and on for like 5 minutes uninterrupted? It's like they are having a conversation with themselves, and everyone else is just a prisoner.

i don't mind if no one is around to be offended, if you know it isn't coming from a bad place.. same with every other potentially offensive word, context is everything

you know, "jesus fucking christ" is offensive to some people
