    Not my deepest darkest secret, but my mom did pull apart my torn pants to flash an entire wedding party my underwear after I accidentally ripped my pants on a swing set (outdoor wedding). I was trying to quietly leave without drawing attention and she deliberately showed it off to like 50 people who all laughed.

    So yeah, that one haunts me pretty regularly.


  • Yeah. There was a post the other day about a CEO that got a 1.2B payout and then gave her staff a first class ticket and $10k in cash. The cost amount to less than 1% of the payout for selling the company that those same staff helped make successful.

    And everyone was arguing about how the CEO didn’t have to give anything at all, so complaining about any of it was just being greedy. Totally ignoring the fact that there’s no way the CEO represented 99.5% of the effort to make the company successful.

    They don’t even see it as a problem and seem happy with whatever minor crumbs the rich are willing to hand out, totally ignoring that what they’ve been handed is a tiny fraction of what was stolen.
