OK seriously, the other day at work we were talking about a coworker and one of my other coworkers said, oh you mean Sam Elliot because the first coworker looks like Sam Elliot from Roadhouse. Then there was a 15 minute discussion about the film Roadhouse. I went home and on my youtube recommended videos to watch was one about the movie Roadhouse. I only had my phone on my desk and my work desktop has no internet access. Is this just coincidence¿
Just yesterday i watched Running Man on my Plex Player running on my raspberry pi. Again I now have multiple Running Man videos in my youtube queue.
I hate it but feel so helpless about it. Maybe it is all coincidence and i am just that lucky and should buy a lottery ticket. Does anyone else have this stuff happen?
That's your issue, You have regret.
Here is some sage advise from Sam Elliot in the movie Roadhouse. Cut it the fuck loose!
The world is full of whiners and loosers. Which are you?
look where nobody else is and go there. Then when the world wakes up you have already been there done that and have years of experience. What makes you tick? What interests you? You have stated you want to write parsers, compilers and other great software. Is that what's really bothering you? You haven't made a great piece of software and you feel that you are a failure? I think you need to write parsers, compilers and other great software.
See you are your own best psychiatrist.
Discussions like this remind me of my favorite scene from "Roadhouse", the best bad movie ever. Discussion forums are kinda like bars and hackers are kinda like coolers...
All you have to do is follow three simple rules. One: never underestimate your opponent. Expect the unexpected. Two: take it outside. Never start anything inside the bar unless it's absolutely necessary. And three: be nice. Come on. If somebody gets in your face and calls you a cocksucker, I want you to be nice. OK. Ask him to walk, be nice. If he won't walk, walk him. But be nice. If you can't walk him, one of the others will help you. And you'll both be nice. I want you to remember that it's a job. - It's nothing personal. - Uh-huh. Being called a cocksucker isn't personal? No. It's two nouns combined to elicit a prescribed response. What if somebody calls my mama a whore? Is she? (laughter) I want you to be nice... ..until it's time to not be nice. Well, how're we supposed to know when that is? You won't. I'll let you know.
Sometimes we hackers work too hard to make things more complicated than they need to be.
Be nice.
(Oh, and by the way, I'm letting you know now when it's time to not be nice here: never.)
