HIPSTER RUNOFF

Sometimes I wonder what I would do if I were a minority/poor/unskilled/uneducated? Seems like it is hard out there 2 find a job in our economie. I think that I would probably try to work at a place that treated me with respect, like a human.   Just want to make sure I 'get health benefits.'  Not sure if poor people are 'smart enough to work at Starbucks', though.

What would u do if u were in a no-win situation and 'needed a good job'?

Might move 2 LA and work at the American Apparel factory.

Pros:

• They will teach me English
• They will give me stock in the company
• They will teach me how to make t-shirts
• Can probably get a lot of free kewl merchandise

Cons:

• My family probs won't realize that I am wearing Am Appy, and will just think I am a 'fggt' wearing 'bright shit' that I got for free at work from my employer

Might also work at the Envelope Stuffing Centre at Netflix Inc.

Pros:

• Access to 'bad ass' movies: action films for black people, romantic comedies, movies about step teams, and movies about minorities who learn to excel in the classroom
• Won't have to wait for a day or two for the movies I want
• Probably could take my computer into work and rip movies on to my compy
• Probably get to 'watch movies' while I work in Windows Media Player
• Employee Snack Rooms

Cons:

• Could probably just get all of the same movies on youtube/hulu/pirate bay without having 2 stuff envelopes with DVDs

Might also be Chili's Waiter

Pros:

• People will think that I am a bro working on his Associate's Degree at a local community college for up to 8 years
• Will get to learn how to cook some bad ass party foods
• Get to interact with 'hot, mildly thick' desperate broads

Cons:

• 40 lb weight gain and getting into a relationship with a fellow employee who is as sad as u, then living in a local apartment with him/her, then building ur whole social life around ur Chili's franchise co-workers.  Also getting tempted 2 work for TGIFriday's/Applebee's.

Might just settle for McDonalds bro.

Pros:

• Free meals
• Free McGriddles
• Free Hot Cakes
• Free Sundaes
• Free bluetooth headset
• Get to 'poop in the ball pit'
• Getting 2 interact with children 4 birthday parties

Cons:

• Having 2 work in the mornings 2 eat McDonalds breakfast.

I feel lucky 2 b me. Glad that I got to go to design school and live out my dreams working for an advertising firm behind some of the world's most recognized viral marketing campaigns and strategically created memes.

However, not every1 has it as lucky as me.

Where would u work if u were 'poor' and 'trapped in ur life'?  What would ur 'career goals be' besides 'putting food on the dinner table'?

[meme hijack via tumblrdore]

This is a list of countries that I would want to live/study abroad in. U can learn a lot about 'the world' based on how many computers every1 has.

More computers = more wifi
More computers = more bros on social networks
More computers = less poors (at least for now while good computers are >$999)
More computers = more 'culture'
More computers = more 'educated people' to have relevant conversations with
More computers = more coffee shops
More computers = more people who go out in public with the hope of 'being street fashion blggd abt'
More computers = more people 'being productive' with their time
More computers = more tolerance
More computers = more people who voted for Obama at change.gov
More computers = less people watching the local news.
More computers = less 'h8 crimes'
More computers = less 'brown-ish ppl'?
More computers = more jobs for the coffee shop economy
More computers = more digi cams 2 'capture life'
More computers = a thriving economy
More computers = a thriving meme economy

Are these assumptions true? Can yall think of n e more? (Just using logic. srry if u don't 'get' why I think that, but I am positive that all of these are true.)

Before I move to a new country, I will make sure that I am aware of the computer-to-ppl ratio, and the wifi network-per-100ppl ratio. It's important 2 do research b4 u go somewhere. Even if you are just booking a hotel. Make sure you call the hotel to ask if their internet solution is stable enough to meet your day-to-day needs.

Kinda weird how Israel is #1 on that chart. Kinda makes u think 2k9 might be the year of the JewAlt/AltJew. Just don't want 2 live in any country with less than 100 computers per 100 ppl. Am I being unreasonable? (h8 u Japan, USA, 3rd World, Brown countries, the Land of the Poors, etc)

Should I plan a pilgrimage to 'chill at the home of Jesus', and smoke a bowl/do a line with him [off my iPhone nano] while we chill on our Macbooks and have the TV on in the background?

Needless 2 say, I am NOT looking forward 2 the Third World getting computers for free on the cheap. I always see commercials about how I need 2 give my hard earned paycheck [via wasting time on the internet at work] to African kids to give them a handful of rice/mush/ cream-of-wheat/gritz/porridge/go-gurt/ecto-coolers so that they can stay nourished. Now yall r telling me that they need social networks + Microsoft Word + Solitaire?

I had to 'grow' into my laptop, spending most of my childhood on a desktop (without portability)...kinda wish they had 2 go through the same 'trials and tribulations' that defined my childhood.

This is a post about computers/technology/the internet/U.
This is a poem about technology/consumerism written by the pop rock band The Daft Punks

Buy it, use it, break it, fix it,
trash it, change it, melt - upgrade it,
charge it, pawn it, zoom it, press it,
snap it, work it, quick - erase it,
write it, get it, paste it, save it,
load it, check it, quick - rewrite it,
plug it, play it, burn it, rip it,
drag and drop it, zip - unzip it,
lock it, fill it, curl it, find it,
view it, curl it, jam - unlock it,
surf it, scroll it, pose it, click it,
cross it, crack it, twitch - update it,
name it, read it, tune it, print it,
scan it, send it, fax - rename it,
touch it, bring it, obey it, watch it,
turn it, leave it, stop - format it.

Take some time 2 think about what exactly that means b4 yall go2 bed 2nite. There's more 2 it than 'just being a dancey song.' This is a post about trying to get yall to 'reach a higher thinking level' and be able to pick up on stuff like this without going 2 a blog every day that teaches u how 2 look at the world. Sometimes I feel like a progressive History/English Teacher who is challenging my students' perception of reality by using 'deep' Literature and discussing a lot of societal injustices+transgressions. One day, I will release yall like a 'mother bird' knocking it's babies out of the next so that they learn 2 fly [via the foo fighters song].
