Willow ,'Showtime'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Dana, may the steroid injections be at least as efficacious for you as they were for Harvey. (They got him back on his feet and walking, and a year and a half after the injection his pain level is managed with oral medication)
The Internet of Things weirds me out. I don't want a smart TV, or fridge, or coffee maker....
I have been to the mall to acquire pomade and a Mother's Day gift.
Time for that rockabilly quiff!
blah morning meeting
Not all Internet of Things devices are easily hacked if configured correctly. Stuff that you'd want to be secure like locks and cameras are generally capable of encrypted communication and it would take quite a bit of effort to intercept even unencrypted info over ZWave or Zigbee devices. Where you really run into trouble is a company that creates a device and does a really half-assed job on the app that connects to it.
Man, these meetings are so painful because my manager is terrible at running meetings. If she'd help guide discussion and then make decisions, they would be so much better. Instead, blather.
Whenever I'm in a meeting and I think of a point or, you know, a good humorous riff, I always have to weigh the value of speaking up to the risk of extending the meeting.
FWIW, if you have the FB app on your phone, it's always listening *and* interrogating nearby devices (like, say, your friends' phones). (I do not have the FB app. Or Messenger.)

Would you like to come to my meetings? You could set a good example. My teammate's theory seems to be "If it's a point worth making, it's worth making eighteen times until we all long for the heat death of the universe."
And she's trying to drag me into another meeting. I am pretending to be away from my computer and ignoring her.

I'm just highly motiviated to get out of meetings because, you know, I've got shit to do.
I head that David Schwimmer (of Friends fame) produced s series of videos illustrating sexual harassment so I decided to peek at the first one (don't have time to watch them all right now) and it seems really well done. I mean, holy shit, does it make me feel awkward and uncomfortable just watching it.
