Want to wade into the snowy surf of the abyss? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid.
Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned so many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)
Cooked. Utterly cooked.

This account is just that sort of shit 24/7, just constant linkedin lunacy that everyone should treat as rage bait and move on.
I know, but thereās just so much to sneer at (especially lately).
I find it very unsatisfactory to sneer at skeets from the above author. Itās just junkfood at this point and not like good junkfood, just like stale off-brand popcorn in a bag that has a picture of a sad clown on it. Why is the clown sad? Because the clown has to constantly look at different variations on the same theme written by people whose brains are melted by LinkedIn.
Oh sure, but when I send a cover letter where claude code told me about serious security issues and I used that knowledge to replace their internal app portal with my face Iāve āviolated the computer fraud and abuse lawsā or whatever.
Every week I learn Iām a n00b when it comes to leveling up with Al.
Iām hiring for facilities maintenance, and specifically seeking a high-agency self-starter who can help us optimize bathroom breaks. An internal candidate sent over multiple Claude Code generated iterations of the š©emoji. One of them had blonde hair and Madonnaās famous cone bra.
I was speechless.
