DØUBLE IDENTITY

Many thanks to our dear friends for the tune! Find more from them here and get The Mess You Make Me here. Tell em Pat sent you!

A visit to HR

Shout to Lock Jaw for sharing this story. I get that the new manager had to make an impression, but having a conversation with your employee seems way easier than doing the whole HR dance. Come on, here!

School mascots

The Internet is a weird place. You used to have to go to the local watering hole or the diner after church to hear people complain about how "things have changed, man." But now? Any dope can jump on Instagram and claim the school they went to decades ago went woke for changing their logo. We need to hear less of each other, honestly.

Social media videos

Maybe it's me being different, but I do not care for this style of social media video. I do not need so much stimulation. Please just present the information and give me time to read it.

Home run ball etiquette

Here are the rules for catching a foul ball or a home run at a baseball game: If you miss it, you have no claim to it. And do not take the ball from a kid. I don't know who didn't teach this woman in Miami that when she was a youngster, but someone definitely failed her.

And that, as we say, is that! Thanks for coming along this week! Next time, we'll have some stuff to discuss: kid-free weekend, movie premiere, and the 9/9/9 challenge. Come on back! Until then, don't do anything I wouldn't do!

Crap open a cold one!
