Blatantly shameless in the US. I've seen these telemarketing preachers omfg. "God wants you to plant a little seed!! A seed in the form of 2000(!) dollars. In return, he will make you RICH in a few years!!!" absolutely f*****g disgusting

You can tell pretty quickly by how they speak to you and the other patients, and how they react to you expressing your pain and discomfort.

I personally know two. One is toxic and the other a narcissist. I can’t believe people pay them.

Some "holistic nutritionist" got my mom into eating bitter apricot seeds everyday, claiming to cure cancer and other tumors of any sorts. There was no convincing her otherwise.

It takes a nut to know a nut?

You have to ask what type of person decides they want to get beaten up for a living.

Who cares if it's in any way good for the world? Do you think those a******s think of the repercussions their "innovation" will have?

The joke is you study psych to figure out what's wrong with you

PR people used to be called "spin doctors" for a reason.

I had a man get mad at me for not calling him "Doctor". I had never met him before and I didn't know he was a Dr...Dr. A*****e!

I have lived in three different towns in the U.S. that had slaughter houses and the majority of the workers were immigrants just trying to support their families. As for the kill floor, they use an air gun most of the time to kill the animal, then they hang the animal upside down and cut the throat to bleed them the same as a hunter does when they get whatever they are hunting.

I've met of decent people from the military. My brother is one of them. The ones who are jerks, were jerks before they enlisted. The military never claimed it could cure jerkness.

The military is a cross section of society. Buy your rules you should never date a civilian because of "the level of mental fuckery they try to pull".

Too many people go into the military for the wrong reasons. They’re the ones who are most likely to behave like this.

Hard and fast rule, don't date military.

The only common denominator in this story is the OP. Perhaps they attract oddballs. My theory is that weird people who were in the military stand out and are noteworthy precisely because they were in the military. Someone who served is no more likely to be a wrong 'un than if you'd picked a Javascript developer or Barista at random.

My best friend is a colonel in the army. Based on his stories, this isn't wrong.

When in active conflict, that is. Just think about the many criminals and serial killers that were disgraced servicemen during wars. War experiences would derange any regular person. I reckon this applies only to some countries with active conflicts now. I have seen examples in the Mexican Army and Navy, (dealing with cartels will certainly f**** you up), the Russian Army and the US.

You spoke to 3 different men? 3? You base your theory on speaking to 3 people?

Anyone who gets a job that provides you the opportunity to kill people, while they are trying to kill you should have their head examined.

Disposable ppl who think they're heroic for killing women and children in lands they have no business in

Knowing three people out of thousands is not a really reliable demographic to make judgements on. I also know several people in the military, many of which are friends and family who are the sweetest people ever. I think I have met more terrible human beings in management than I ever had in the military. Sure there are bad ones. But they don't make the majority.

I strongly resent this one. I served in the Army, got damaged but the majority of soldiers I met were and are good people.

British criminologists studied the modus operandi of 36 hitmen operating over the past 40 years, and divided the criminals into four categories. There's the Rookie, who charges barely two hundred euros and is exposed after bragging about the murder to friends. There's the Amateur, who kills out of need for money but usually fails due to being clumsy, or changes his mind when he sees the victim. The third type is the Day Labourer. This one is known in the circuit, but also to the police. Therefore, he alternates work periods with stays in prison. And then there's the Master, who strikes as quickly as he disappears again. A Master often learns his tricks in the army, and commits dozens of murders with impunity.

A whole bunch of cowards and treasonous pieces of human detritus in this comment section. our fighting men and women as well as our veterans deserve respect especially from you weak cowardly sacks of s**t that would turn on your friends and neighbors in a heartbeat in a bad situation and instead get to live in relative peace. you should feel ashamed to talk about those that risk their lives, bodies and sanity so you can be free.

Motivational speakers are the epitome of "Easier said than done."

Tbf I'm starting to think there's a little insanity in all legal/legal-adjacent professionals - myself included lol. I'm not an attorney but I work for a large firm and I actually kind of love the neuroses of my lawyers. It's like herding cats, but they're my cats and and like all cat owners I can watch them do the weirdest s**t and I'll find it so amusing. To be clear, I'm talking day-to-day quirks like how they prefer their documents or write their emails or interact in general.

Despite the popular saying, the three most important words in real estate are not "Location, location, location". They are "Money, money, money".

You have to love money more than your dignity and morals, that's for sure.

I've met some absolute thug property managers when I lived in cheap apartments. But the people working at the mgmt company that runs this block I live in have been really not bad at all. S**t gets done. I've had no bogus accusations. No issues with rent being received. We've been left alone. I hope they remain here for a long time.

So, basically, the Devil Wears Prada is an accurate depiction, which was written by someone who worked for the Editor In Chief of Vogue Magazine, and Miranda Presley was inspired by that EIC.

Yeah....looking at you Mrs. Gregor!

They are always super hyper at 9am. Like wound, pacing, loud, cocky and just in your face, not allowing you to just try to learn what to do without them getting impatient with you. I've suspected some of the most high-strung ones are on coke.

This list basically confirms everyone is nuts.

So true 😂

But it's FUN!

google Sokal Hoax if you want to learn more about why a large proportion of academia is just a wank.

100% can confirm after over 20 years in higher education. F*****g narcissistic asshats who think their stupid waffle will save the world.

no one is saying cops?

I saw one on the bus, just gotten off his shift and still wearing his tool belt and steal toes, start going off on a family with a couple of kids because another lady was harassing them, too, and accusing them of being on welfare. The guy got up and took out his hammer like he was about to assault the family. Everyone was shocked. The bus stayed at the bus stop until police arrived, which wasn't long. This guy was ranting and complaining to the police. Ended up pissing off the cops and getting arrested. The family had already gotten off the bus and walked away. They did absolutely nothing but exist.

Ex high end Chef with 37 years in front of the stove. The job nearly killed me several times - 1 heart attack, 2 mental breakdowns, 1 major fire that I got trapped in and one where a faulty gas cooker (that the owner had known about for 2 years, but had done nothing to get it fixed) basically blew me across the room when I tried to manually light it ; that landed me 3 days in hospital, I then sued the owner sucessfully for a chunk of money. I loved the job and many of my co workers, hated most of my employers and tried my hardest to put out the best food I could within the constraints of budgets, surroundings and staff competence. Would I go back into it ? No, f**k off, what do you think I am, stupid ?

For a funny, and sweet, look at dog shows, watch Christopher Guest's mockumentary "Best in Show".

4th mention 😅
