“When I was young there were beatniks. Hippies. Punks. Gangsters. Now you’re a hacktivist. Which I probably would be if I was 20. Shuttin’ down Mastercard. But there’s no look to that lifestyle! Besides just wearing a bad outfit with bad posture. Has WikiLeaks caused a look? No! I’m mad about that. If your kid comes out of the bedroom and says he just shut down the government, it seems to be he should at least have an outfit for that.”

onstage declared that the era of across-the-board raises was over, and
would never return.
Troy Taylor CEO of the Florida Coke franchise put it succinctly: “It’s
just not going to happen. [A general raise is] absolutely not in my
business.”

Don’t see what all the fuss with corporations and businesses embracing pride is about. I think it’s personally nice that I can walk into any store with a rainbow on it and take whatever I want for free, without consequences, because I am gay
