It's the worst. And you see it all the time on comments sections of popular web sites. Someone complains about something, another user says, "Well, that's business," and gets tons of upvotes.
Haha, yeah, I guess the Rangers stuff was more wishful thinking than fact.
Haha, what's that from?
I don't think that's a fair argument. The word exists. Why does it exist? Isn't it natural to ask questions about why we agree on certain labels? What purpose do they serve? I find myself thinking about this a lot, especially because the word is thrown around so liberally on the Internet. It's not productive to question the nature of words? Kierkegaard said something like, "to label me is to negate me." To be fair, I only know that quote from Wayne's World, but I think it applies nonetheless.
Why is it useless? It's an opinion on Millennial. It's original thought. You don't like it, that's fine. But talk about useless, your comment is useless. All you're doing is putting me down in the most unoriginal way possible.
The first car that I bought was a 1991 Dodge Stealth. It was a stick, and I didn't know how to drive it, but I bought it anyway. My parents both grew up driving standard, and they reluctantly showed me the ropes. I say reluctantly because they were never really comfortable with the idea of me driving a car. But I bought it, and so I needed to drive it. It was a learning curve. I wound up burning through the clutch that first summer. That car lasted me about a year before it fell apart, and then I saved up to buy a new Hyundai Accent for about ten grand. I opted for the stick shift because at this point it was a matter of personal pride. It felt like a super power that I had, to operate a manual transmission. I'm currently driving a Ford Explorer, and although I never thought I'd be driving an automatic, this car was being sold at a heavy discount by a family member, and seeing as how my wife and I just had a baby, I felt like it was the universe's way of telling me it was time to move on. Will I ever get to own a stick shift again? I hope so. There's nothing like driving with that feeling of total control over your car.
I've been out of restaurant work for over a year now, and I still wake up in the middle of the night sometimes, convinced that table 13 is still waiting for a side of mayonnaise.
Haha, that's awesome. We used to do the same stuff at this restaurant I worked at a while ago. For example, we'd wait for a waiter to get super in the weeds, and then we'd make an announcement to the whole restaurant, that it's that waiter's birthday (totally a lie), asking for everyone to help in singing him Happy Birthday. So on top of having to do a million things, he'd have to stand there for ten to fifteen seconds while everyone sang him Happy Birthday. Good times.
