That sounds like my time as a computer technician and then a network tech. Always chasing the next cert to stand out from the next tech. Once I switched to compsci I’ve never been pitched any certifications.

Why are you gate keeping people on the internet?

In a shitposting community no less.

Going off my age’ed memory here but I don’t remember Tyler being described quite so fashionable in the book. Yes the movie is an attempt to lampoon toxic masculinity, but compared to other castings nobody else had the I want to be Brad Pitt star power. I think it overpowers that you’re not supposed to agree with Tyler. It’s like how people will subconsciously mimic those they admire.

I actually did study for the CCNA and was primed to certify. I decided not to go that route and found myself in a Java class a couple years later. I now don’t use either of those things.

Not a movie, but the finale of Lost. Everyone one was like “Oh my god! They’re all dead! <crying noises>”. Yeah, no shit, they’re in purgatory. If you pay attention, they didn’t all die at the same time. They’re waiting for each other before moving on. Everything dies, damn.

Was it the movie they misunderstood, or did the movie misrepresent the book. I haven’t watch or read either in years but I feel like it’s similar to how Starship Troopers, misrepresents the book.

Instructions unclear. Which end goes in?

I’d eat the shit out of that and I don’t even like cheesecake.

I scrolled through the whole comments section and not a single Sexy Losers reference? For shame.

Thank you. I saved this years ago and didn’t know the source. I’m going to swap this in.

Am I doing it right, now?

I would eat both of them

Yeah. And?

Why can’t I click the updoot harder?

Umm, the poetry section is over there 👉 Poetry@lemmy.world, but that was lovely.

While I romanticize the idea of running my own community, I’m really too busy to moderate it properly. The mods really do do the gods work.
