Things can only get better.

Outrageous things are happening in New York. Okay, so I can't say much. But here's the skinny. One day last week I pick up the phone and I hear B's frigtard voice and I'm 90% tempted to do that thing where you pretend you're the voice mail system, and say, "Sorry but I'm either away from my desk or on the other line, but if you leave a message I'll call you right back." Instead, like a bonehead, I go, Hey B., what's up. And he says he wants me to come meet.

Lot of people don't know this but B. really has a very silly and sometimes sick sense of humor. He totally loves to pull practical jokes and make prank phone calls. Especially when he's blitzed.

B., you're fun to hang out with, but I think you are getting stoned too much. Too much sun down there in San Jose. Maybe you need a new challenge. I dunno. Take up karate. Or merge with Mickey Mouse.

It´s like with S. Now that D. is living in a loony bin in Southern India, S. thinks he is Da Man. The only thing constant in life is change. You cannot accept and adapt to change, you inevitably end up in a loony bin in Southern India, after working for C.


B. I mean seriously. Can you imagine a world where someone with no experience in finance, business or engineering could become CEO of a huge publicly traded corporation just because they're charismatic, look good on stage and know how to stab people in the back? It makes me shiver when I think about it. Thank God Getty is a meritocracy, that's all I'm gonna say.


While on the topic of C. Do you realize S. now has a company called "SnapAsshole" ???? Seriously. Totally missed that. Check it out.

And come on. Do you mean to tell me of all the possible names in the world, they couldn't come up with something that every teenage boy in the world wouldn't immediately make into a joke?

Like did nobody on the team kinda look at the name and go, like, Uh, hey, dudes, we might have like a problem here or something.

My theory is that they hired a consultant to develop the name and actually paid a boatload of money for it, and that the consultant was somebody who got burned by F. on some other deal. And now that old cow with a disastrous career runs around betraying the ones who once trusted her, and still trust.


Anyhoo. Only five days to go. And then THANKGODITSFRIDAY again, Jesus.
