Great Moments in Design Job Postings #1

Ad link from Craigslist:

“Flash designer with style HELP ME PLEASE! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !”

The inside of the ad is even better:

Don’t waste my time with “my rate is 50hr”, I don’t care. Show me talent, honesty, and integrity and then I’ll show you the money.

You can just smell the stink rising off this gig from a mile away…

God Help Us All…

I don’t own a Windows box, nor do I use any “popular” messenger, so I can’t really say what goes on with the blinking, whizzing ads and consistent harassment from porn scum over ICQ. This hilarious transcript, of just such an instance, amazes me with the absolute greed under which these assholes operate.

Also, anyone using :-) or LOL should have urine thrown on them.

And while we’re at it: I almost choked to death laughing at this one.

White Hunter, Black Heart

John Wilson: I would like to tell you a little story.
Mrs. MacGregor: Oh, I love stories.
John Wilson: Well, you mustn’t interrupt now, because you’re way too beautiful to interrupt people. When I was in London in the early 40′s, I was dining one evening at the Savoy with a rather select group of people, and sitting next to me was a very beautiful lady, much like yourself.
Mrs. MacGregor: Now you’re pulling my leg.
John Wilson: Now, just listen, dear. Well, we were dining and the bombs were falling, and we were all talking about Hitler and comparing him with Napoleon, and we were all being really brilliant. And then, suddenly, this beautiful lady, she spoke up and said that was the thing she didn’t mind about Hitler, was the way he was treating the Jews. Well, we all started arguing with her, of course. Though, mind you, no one at the table was Jewish. But she persisted. Are you listening, honey?
Mrs. MacGregor: Mustn’t interrupt Daddy.
John Wilson: That’s right. You’re way too beautiful for that. Anyway, she went on to say that that’s how she felt about it, that if she had her way, she would kill them all, burn them in ovens, like Hitler. Well, we all sat there in silence. Then finally, I leaned over to her and I said, “Madam, I have dined with some of the ugliest goddamn bitches in my time. And I have dined with some of the goddamndest ugly bitches in this world. But you, my dear, are the ugliest bitch of them all.” Well, anyway, she got up to leave and she tripped over a chair and fell on the floor. And we all just sat there. No one raised a hand to help her. And finally when she picked herself up I said to her one more time: “You, my dear, are the ugliest goddamn bitch I have ever dined with.” Well, you know what happened? The very next day, she reported me to the American Embassy. And they brought me in for reprimand. And then when they investigated it, they found out she was a German agent. And they locked her up.
[smiles]
John Wilson: Isn’t that amazing?
Mrs. MacGregor: Why did you tell me that story?
John Wilson: Oh, I don’t know. It wasn’t because I thought you were a German agent, honey. But I was tempted tonight to say the very same thing to you. I didn’t want you to think I had never said it before. You, madam, are the – Well, you know the rest.
