LinkedIn shitposting is the best kind of shitposting.

I mean... this is very obviously satirical...

LinkedIn's law: you can never tell even when the poster states it is satire. Why? because they could be doing a PR move.

I feel like we need a separate community for the satirical posts. While these are funny, they dilute the absolute unhingedness of the people who would do something like this seriously.

Yeah, putting satirical ones in LinkedInLunatics feels a bit like eating the onion.

Damn and here i am loving a fresh slice of onion

I vote for keeping satirical posts in this community, please. It takes a certain level of "lunacy" even to come up something so hilarious and demented.

Last night I hung my queen against my son on chess.com. I'm rated over 9000 and he's 100.

Why?

To teach my son that to really win at life, you need to eat the rich.

It's a lichess 3000, so really like 1700

Here's hoping the son uses the same login for chess.com long-enough to realize they did that on-purpose.
