Every time Amazon has layoffs, remember that all Jeff had to do was give away an insignificant portion of his wealth and save the employees and the company.

You are right, Mr. crescendo.

[-] snek@lemmy.world 39 points 8 months ago

That's Ms. Crescendo, thank you very much.

And fuck Bezos.

lol, I thought about writing it in a "gender neutral way" but it didn't read as funny. Sorry for assuming your gender. ;)

But again with this statement: You are right, Ms. Crescendo.

No worries, I don't really mind but sometimes being f online reminds me too much of how everyone on the internet assumes people are m our of convenience or force of habit. I just thought it would be funny as a reply.

It was. =)

PS: Just to stay on toppic for a second here: Fuck Bezos.

Where can we sign up to fuck Bezos? And will there be lube?

I'll be happy to do my duty and can keep going until he hands over his money so his workers can get paid.

Can I fuck him with something other than myself? I'd like to fuck him out of money.

[-] arandomthought@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

Like... With a cactus?

[-] Shadywack@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Creeping Devil would work fine.

[-] snek@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

I meant fuck him metaphorically

But it reminded me of this

[-] EnderMB@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

While he's still a leading shareholder, it's worth reminding that Jeff Bezos isn't CEO any more. Andy Jassy has been CEO for over two years now.

The fact that few people know/care kinda says it all really...
