This just in, people don’t like ads. At all. Most people.

It is time to find a new business model that works. I’m not smart enough to know what that is so that you don’t piss off users, but whoever figures it out will be a billionaire.

I still believe their naming conventions has destroyed the brand.

Grandma that wants to buy a toy for their kids can go to the store and buy the next PlayStation. Xbox… which one do they buy? They don’t, they buy the easy option.

Yet.

Give the porn industry time.

TikTok has been an extremely successful propaganda outlet

Instead of being unresponsive, be a time waster. Be hostile. Keep agreeing until they try to get information out of you. Is your name John but they ask for Greg? Say, yes this is Greg.

I turn these calls in to entertainment opportunities. And it may be confirmation bias but after having done this for a couple months, call volume has dropped dramatically.

Maybe this is a bad idea. But for me, it’s been fun.

My favorite so far was to keep agreeing and saying yes, then to turn on porn silently, then slowly increase the volume and ask if they can hear that. Get mad at them for making you listen to it. Keep turning up the volume until it is deafening. They will hang up.

Israel, continuing to demolish its own international reputation while ensuring a whole new generation is even more angry and more willing to fight.

  1. People on the internet suck. No matter what, there will be someone that is upset with your words for some reason. This opens you up to harassment.

  2. I just don’t want to.

  3. I hesitated replying to this post because you are responding by redundantly @ing the user you are replying to. That is a mega pet peeve of mine and I hate it.

Have a nice day!

Let me guess, they define antisemitism as anything outside of fully supporting Israel’s genocide?

+1 I guess.

As has been repeated repeatedly, the first casualty of war is the truth.

Do not believe either side. Only independent reports.

If I was Hamas, I would absolutely call whatever happened an air strike from Israel.

If I was Israel, I would absolutely call whatever happened a failed rocket explosion from Hamas.

Do not believe either side. They are both lying.

Call me an old geezer, but I can’t stand videos for about 95% of all video game guides. They are either too slow or too fast, and include 10 mins of talking for “and the hot key you are looking for is H”.
