And I can’t even imagine it’s an intentional addition, it’s just become part of boiler plate legal documents here in the deep south.

These are the types of people (Pelosi) that always somehow end up outliving the kids they kept promising they would eventually hand the reins over to next year

I just don’t get why his 75+ old hippie three heart attack having ass feels the need to come into the office to accomplish nothing and cause all kinds of slowdowns.

Dude, you built a successful company. Go to your motherfucking lake house and I don’t know, watch Lawrence Welk reruns?

The boomers destroyed all the old gods, and only now, facing their own mortality, have they begun to realize just how terrifying the ramifications of the world they created truly are where there is no God, no masters, only a narcissistic black hole of a world where monetary instruments have been mistaken for having inherent value rather than serving as a placeholder in a very poorly thought out, completely broken false economy

Oh you’re too good for the exact same (in reality, ludicrously better now than it was before) nursing home you let your own mother rot in for 20 years until she finally died, covered in her own piss? That’s crazy. What a crazy, insane plot twist absolutely no one could have ever foreseen. Ad nauseum.

Edit: you’re confusing his business with a functional company when in reality, like everything else in the lives of these people it’s just yet another monument to his own self worth and ego

To be fair, he did build a decent company. He’s only been coming out of pocket the last couple of years. I’m not trying to defend capital in any way, I’m just saying my wife needs a job, and the product they make isn’t munitions for the war effort. In fact, he’s mostly refused to sell to countries like Saudi Arabia that could feasibly use his product to hurt people in a roundabout way. He even switched to making PPE stuff during pandemic, and gave a lot of it away.

I agree with everything else you said though. I think a lot of boomers start out with decent intentions, but the world they grew up in taught them to be cynical, and it really sets in when the world around them changes, and they refuse to get out of the way of the next generation.
