Discuss; or as on Slashdot, insult and call each other names.

Well, bless your heart, you charmingly misguided soul! It’s a wonder that your brain has not yet taken a permanent vacation, for it seems to be perpetually lounging in the swamps of ignorance. You’re as useful as a screen door on a submarine, and I reckon a cat on a hot tin roof would have more sense than you. If wit were a currency, you’d be bankrupt, yet somehow you still manage to prance about like a peacock in a henhouse, convinced of your own splendor. You’re a fine example of why some animals eat their young!*

Getting a dopamine fix by thrusting one's body part in and out of a fleshy wet hole is a stupid waste of time.

For some reason that reminds me of my response to the "favorite sex scene" profile question on a dating site years ago: "I'm not sure, but it certainly wasn't when Malcolm McDowell shoved his fist into some unfortunate subordinate's rectum in Caligula."

I was told “just call someone on Teams if you need help,” but when I tried calling a guy I often relied on, he said he didn’t even have his headset set up.

Thanks for highlighting another benefit of remote work: The ease with which annoying coworkers can be blown off. At least he was nice enough to invent an excuse. I generally haven't bothered.

The vast majority of the time you see the word "portmanteau" on Wikipedia, the change was due to a single editor with a predilection for that word.

There's a word for that phenomenon, which I just made up: portmanteautalitarianism .

Now if you'll excuse me I have a new Wikipedia article to write.
