“TLC is very uncomfortable to watch. It is the modern-day equivalent of a freak show IMO. I routinely feel bad for a lot of the people who’ve been on there, especially kids.” —windwoods “The History Channel should just be renamed the Conspiracy Channel.” —bk27465 “There was a period of time when Facebook was the best way for college students to interact with other college students online…which sounds insane now, but was actually true in its early years.” —Sattorin “I’m in banking, and I’ve never really thought about it that way, but it’s so true.” —lhope9 “OG Craftsman tools were something else. After he died a few years ago, I inherited my father’s tool collection, most of which he had inherited from my grandfather in the ’70s. Those tools are so much better than anything I’ve bought for myself. Superior quality.” —Frozboz “Former Lowe’s employee here: Craftsman is far and away the brand of tools that get returned the most due to them malfunctioning or breaking. It’s crazy, because my dad still has some Craftsman stuff from when it was a Sears brand, and they work great.” —NatrenSR1 “I can’t stand the seemingly mandatory sob stories they make competitors say throughout the episodes. ‘I was super messed up when my rabbit died at age 8. [sad music plays] I found my passion and inspiration through cooking to get through losing him. I’m 57 now, and I entered this competition to win in honor of Fluffy. I hope I made him proud with this here taco.’ [sheds tear]” —Manitoberino “They moved the instructional content to the Cooking Channel so Food Network could be all competition shows and junk. More appealing to the general public, I guess?” —bebe_inferno “So, I stuck with TWD until it officially and finally ended a few months ago. It got so bad I just made it the thing I put on while I was doing other things, but I stuck with it and finished. The ending was god-awful. But that wasn’t what surprised me. What surprised me is that after it ended they advertised an expansion of TWD universe with spin-off shows for multiple characters that no one cares about.” —LOL_N0PE “I remember that, too. I’m old now.” —kinenbi “Honestly, House of Cards showed they could challenge HBO for level of quality. Now, they have a reputation for buying good scripts and pulling the plug before the shows get too expensive.” —Bat-manuel “Definitely. It was all but guaranteed to be amazing television at first, but now, there’s only a hit once in a while.” —jonmonage “You stay loyal to jobs that take care of you. Shit wages, no benefits, and no human decency is where you expect to begin, but if there’s zero progress since the day you started, you need to GTFO unless you can admit you’re not worth more than where you’re at.” —sketchysketchist
