When I was at a conference in Saratoga last week, a coworker and I toyed with the idea of seeing a SPAC show. Then we realized the only option while we were there was Nickelback. (We didn't go, in case you weren't sure)
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
I like to raise my hand for way too much, so on Thursday I have my first meeting for a newly formed Performance Evaluation Committee. For those of you in work environments with a fixed performance evaluation process, can you give me any feedback on yours? Do you particularly like or not like any part of the process? The timeline, the way it's submitted, the types of questions or the ways that they are asked, rating scales, its usability across departments, etc. Feel free to PM me or whatever. Thanks!

I try to say goodbye and I choke Try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not here Goodbye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not here

I've never been on reddit. Am I living under a rock?
Reddit is total shiz unless you actively curate your experience. The default subreddits are all worthless.
But there can often be cool communities. im a mod on the grateful dead subreddit and it's mostly just old heads talking about old shows and various side projects of band members. Lots of the science, history, and philosophy subs are actively moderated and highly insightful. And the CFB subreddit is huge, but mostly very informative and fun. The baby elephant gifs sub is literally just gifs of baby elephants.
Sometimes cool things happen like today someone posted a pic of rufio with Dustin Hoffman and Robin Williams at from the hook wrap party and the actor who played rufio showed up to give the backstory.
It is the fourth most visited domain on the internet, so really you could be considered living under a rock, but 95% of the content...you aren't missing much.
I hate that song, but I guess it's better than a fratboy led chant of Sweet Caroline or some lame fn Journey tune. :ugh:
I thought this new Russian Pyramid/Lighthouse Satellite thing was pretty cool. It will be the second brightest object in the night sky for the next 30 days if it passes somewhere you can see it. Probably some light pollution but whatever. It would still be cool to see. I haven't seen any crazy shit like that since the Space Shuttle and Space Station passed overhead 15-20 years ago.

All the people from my hometown who never left have turned into flat earthers and moon landing deniers
People are fucking stupid. Flat earthers, though harmless, are some of the the worst of them all. The inability to discern reality from utter bullshit is dragging on our country. We are stupid and f'n lazy. We get what we deserve. But people you would think aren't that gullible really are. People better get educated or we're fucked. Between anti-vaxxers, flat earthers, Trump voters, moon landing deniers, child slave rings on mars believers, contrail and fluoride in the water conspirists fuck. There's no end. This shit used to all be a joke. Some time recently we became dumb as fucking rocks.

I browse /mu/ quite a bit and I found a lot of albums I really like from there (ITAOTS, American Football, Loveless, etc.) but it's a really niche board. Way better than those shitstains /b/ and /pol/ though
As far as Reddit goes, there are some really good subreddits (DIY, nottheonion, mildlyinteresting) and then there are bad subreddits (the_donald, bonnaroo) and then there are the scum of the earth (incels). Seriously guys. Check out r/incels if you want to get a healthy dose of rage.

I managed to get front row tickets to Ryan Adams and front row tickets to Wilco... back to back... for concerts in the next three months. Something is going to have to go wrong because I am never this lucky.

Reddit is really all about how you curate your experience. For me it's a ton of fun, I don't participate a lot but I follow many communities. Some are hobbyist communities that are specifically interesting to me, like /r/audiophile, /r/headphones, /r/phish, /r/civ, /r/sneakers, /r/wicked_edge. Pretty much if you have a hobby, there is a subreddit for it, with overall subreddit quality dependent upon the quality of moderation (i'm an online authoritarian, I think many internet users are dumb babies and ergo I crave a king or queen to whip us into shape).
But where reddit is most fun is the jokes. I'll follow a subreddit centered around a joke until I get tired of it, but since I like intense long running inside jokes reddit works well for me. Here are some examples:
www.reddit.com/r/SubredditSimulator/ - a personal favorite. It's an AI that scans other subreddits and creates posts that attempt to sound like other subreddits. Zero posts from homo sapiens. Very funny and a little scary.
r/gaming - video game information r/vinyl - vinyl r/nosleep - horror stories r/criterion - movies r/malelivingspace - male ideas for home r/drunkhifi - vinyl + liquor/beer r/audiophile - music r/vinylreleases - new vinyl
