    If you’re going to write a power fantasy for the internet at least make it cool. Add some lasers or epic street fights. Add in some part where you outsmart the librul professor who hates god. “I found a job in a shitty industry and only prostitutes will fuck me” is not the flex you think it is.

      You forget prostitute’s go away which means you don’t have to deal with their shenanigans…I learned that from Chef on South Park.

        • Alright, this is my opportunity to write something stupid. If I offer any degree of inanity at all, it will be received at least reasonably well. There are no wrong answers. I just have to write a non sequitur or reference an internet joke from 10 or more years ago and I’m golden, it’s the easiest thing in the world. Maybe even a faux onomatopoeia would work. Yeah, that’s what I’ll do, just write something brief and extremely uninspired. Yeah. It’ll require the least effort for the return. That’s what I should do. Just write out a snippet of stupidity and hit reply. That’s what I should do.

      I am reading your post and thinking about my job at a major US defense contractor where I write software for laser weapon systems…

      It’s not because I was bullied though.

      I used to use high-powered (4KW) lasers at work every day. Now I make 3D models and sit at a desk.

      Guess which job I like more.
