Sure: A couple of years ago I joined a company doing outsourced system administration. Then it was suggested I should take care of a new client: a manufacturer of weapons with a quite shady reputation. There were already other issues I had noticed. But this was the red flag for me and I left after four weeks. My then team lead was pissed and complained I should have told beforehand that I don’t want to go down that route. But it never occured to me before that to compile a blacklist of things I won’t do. And I had been in business for more than 20 years when that happened.


None. That’s a bad pun.


I love bad puns but this one escapes me. Help?


Garen means cook, bald means soon, I guess a pressure cooker cooks your food quickly (soon)?


Oog. It’s puns like this that make people doubt freedom of speech.


Nothing bad about this pun then.

Edit: and thank you, of course. :)


Ouch!


Definitely my favourite podcast. The only other comparable one Revolutions by Mike Duncan.


Revolutions podcast was too in-depth for me (think, hundreds of episodes for each revolution). But I've been listening to his podcast-closing appendix (12 appendix episodes, that tells you something about being verbose), and it's fun :)


Same experience here. Learned to order "Thai-hot" while working in Frankfurt (Germany) and frequenting a Thai food truck. Nearby was "Best Worscht in Town". Try it when in Germany - http://bestworschtintown.com They sell sausages and fries. You have to choose a flavour and the level of spiciness for the sauce/relish. Latter ranges from A to F. I can manage D (333,000 SCU according to web site). For F (short for FBI or Fking Burning Injection, 1,200,000 SCU) I heard that they require to sign an indemnification agreement.
