Fox"news": "Mr Rogers is evil who ruined a generation of kids"

I hear of him before but too imply that a TV show has more impact on your life then your parents and actual environment is a stupid excuse used by parents of the last generation for their failure in parenting.
aka MTV Generation.
 
Yeah, can't have all those damn elementary school kids running around with self-esteem; that would be horrible!

These people are seriously off their meds. The fact people actually watch this shit is what amazes me.
 
It is hard to spot with FOX, but isn't this satire?
 
I've only watched bits of it but Fox and Friends is a morning show so it could be. however knowing how alarmist and crazy foxnews is this wouldnt surprise me if they're playing it straight
 
that's was actually very funny ZT :thumbs:
 
i loved Mr Rogers, he always told me to wear a sweater and own a train set
 
Seriously though, this is something I expect on The Onion.
 
Hey guys it's Fox "news" lol get it, has anyone made that joke before.
 
No one did, Travis honey. Now be a dear and go back to bed.
 
Why is the ****ing weatherman commenting? Why is he... you know... doing anything outside of the weather?
 
Not surprised that O'Reilly is that 'popular'. He's a great guy to watch and loath.
 
Is it just me that sees "hard-working" as a negative term? I mean, ffs, is that the meaning of life? To slave for some corporation for 50 years and then die five years later in a nursing home?

I'm certainly with you. Being a bum all my life has afforded me the opportunity to flesh out my views on work ethic, and I'm of the position that work can go and **** itself! Working hard should only be something attributed to doing things you love to do!

That being said, you typically can't enjoy the things you enjoy without doing shit you don't rightfully care about. This doesn't apply to all careers and people, of course.
 
the only problem with not working hard is that you never advance or get offered lucrative/important positions also extra benefits, respect from peers, the things that go with making a decent living wage. an employee can mire themselves in mediocrity all they want but sooner or later it'll come back to haunt them. or you can be like me and have nowhere to advance to because you're the only one who does your job at the company. the best perk is that no one really understands your job because they're all sales people and managers

"the flux capacitor on the server relay is starting to cascade! The only way to stop it is through transdental electromicide. I'll need a golf cart motor and a thousand volt capacimator, stat."

Boy, you sound like one of them con-serva-tives... yelling at all the hippies to get a damn job and do something corporate with their lives! Oh wait... that's productive.
 
yet I'm often accused of being a hippie/anarchist


this isnt advice, this isnt opinion. it's the reality of the workplace. I see people passed up for promotion all the time and 99% of the time it's their work ethic rather than their work performance

Reverse the polarity of the proton shields!
 
There's a certain zen to doing your job as well as possible.

If you do the bare minimum and dislike what you are doing, you are resisting the moment. To be happy, you must change your situation (quit), or accept it fully without resistance. Then the task becomes a meditative exercise and you can focus on each hand movement, each task and be totally happy. A well performed task becomes a result of this.

No, you say that like it's an entitlement, it's not, it's something you eventually gain through proving yourself.
You should work hard because getting the job done (job, school, whatever) is more important than what you feel, and they're paying you.
You think all your dang crap got made because of lazy people who didn't want to get the job done because it "wasn't something they loved to do"?!

Damn, nothing would get done if everyone had that mentality.

The severity of my post was pretty much a joke. That's why I went ahead and mocked myself in it by calling myself a bum.

My mentality is still roughly against the idea of becoming a worker bee drone... working for the hive and not after myself. That mentality doesn't necessarily get in the way of doing the job well.

this is only achieved through hard work. it's the people who coast through their careers who are the drones. the overachiever/hard worker stands above the rest of the crowd. the overwelming majority of people fall into the drone catagory

Those people who are 'coasting' through their careers may spend all their off time doing amazing things like rock climbing, white water rafting, running with the bulls.

It's a scientific fact that when consumed so much with work, you have very little room left for everything else, and what you choose to fill it with is mundane!

hard work is also about quality and not always quantity. there are days I work pretty hard but I still leave at 5 pm ..33 minutes and counting till I start my long weekend woohoo
 
It's when people decide to work a job that thy get suckered into or if they worship the dollar, that's when they become the drone - when they work a job not because it's what they want to do, but because Mommy & Daddy told them to get the job that makes them the most money irregardless of what they really enjoy (why do you think parents say they want to "amount" to something?).
