Got the Munchies? Watch & Read This First!
I know, it's Friday and I'm not supposed to be working, writing, offering advice, and commentary. But I was chilling watching some YouTube videos, and this disturbing video caught my attention. The title alone captivated my interest, considering I had a yen for a juicy cheeseburger with a side of fries—something I haven’t done in years. While I may be a slacker, I rarely dine out, preferring to prepare my meals. However
Much to my chagrin, my appetite was dashed after being enlightened to the fact that lunch at an American fast-food outlet of any brand could cause a catastrophic gastronomic disaster in my under shorts. So, in the interest of the public good, I, Slack Slacker, decided to forgo a Friday of lazy leisure to sound the alarm for those planning to order a corporate "Frankenstein Burger" smothered in onions and lies.
Double mystery meat patties that would never pass inspection in most countries will be served up to American customers, salivating for a juicy double-decker WTF sandwich to be washed down with super-sized Coke loaded with enough sugar to add inches to the waist, ass, and thighs. Add fries cooked in boiling grease and so heavily salted that your blood pressure will spike higher than your insulin levels from that Coke you guzzled.
The eight establishments mentioned in this video are as follows: Jack in the Box (Jack in the Crotch) was the joke my college mates called it, primarily due to the sludge that this chain used in their tacos. Wendy’s, supposedly fresh, never frozen, is a lie debunked many times over, especially on the East Coast. Oh yeah, Wendy’s is also known for treating its senior employees like it treats their beef. Like Shit!
Next up, Checkers and Rally’s were inspected and found to have rodent and insect infestations. Not exactly Yummy! But wait, there’s more. This chain was also cited for broken coolers and raw meat sweating under heat lamps. Still hungry? BTW, these franchises also exploit their employees. So, if you complain about the service, these disgruntled workers might serve you a little special secret sauce on your replacement order with a smile.
Despite what’s been revealed above, there are always those who are still gluttons for more. So, let's have Uber Eats deliver something stomach-churning from Carls Jr. and Hardee’s. Their motto is " go big, go bold, go greasy. And Greasy is right. The oil that their fries are cooked in has been used for over a week.
According to this video, in the South and Midwest, inspectors found deep fryers filled with thick, blackened oil that was chemically unstable. Not only is this disgusting, but it becomes a delivery system for acrylamide, an acrylamide carcinogen linked to nerve damage and cancer, and hazardous for aging immune systems. Think about it, the fries are this bad, you know the meat must suck!
Now, in the interest of time, I’m going to cut the shit chat and give you the name of the other mentioned burger joint offenders so I can GTFO of Dodge and press my chill mode button. Burger King (Protein Putty Patties), McDonald’s (Quarter Pounder is only 51% beef), and the rest is binders, water retainers, and fillers. Bon Appétit, suckers.
White Castle: Sliders is a marketing name for a precooked flash-frozen micro burger covered with dehydrated onion flakes, with holes punched in it to increase profit margins. Sonic: In short, it Sucks all around. Burgers taste like rubberized hockey pucks. Enough said, other than stay away from the high-fructose shakes. Your blood glucose monitor will spike so high you’ll go into shock just reading it.
In my humble opinion, and commentary today is simple. Don’t eat that shit!

BTW, have you seen the latest photos of Trump's big, fat, unhealthy ass? He's known to "Scarf Down" Big Macs by the garbage bag loads.
As I promised last week, I mentioned that I'd be providing commentary and advice revolving around the concept of quiet quitting. And this post is the first of many to come shortly to give those hard-working people evidence and ammunition to combat the exploitation that has been taking advantage of their naivete and loyalty to the corporate rat race that has ensnared them in low-paying, dead-end careers with nothing but stress, worry, and debt. The YouTube video above has been posted primarily for older workers who believe that working hard will lead to a certain level of success and happiness. Many of them have lived long enough to realize that the concept was a scam designed to rob them of their youth and vitality.
Fortunately, succeeding generations have realized this early on. However, many Millennials and those of Generation Z are still captivated by the illusion of wealth in a life of ease, if only they made the sacrifice to join the ranks of the corporate zombies that fuel the engines of The Elites that rule the world. Therefore, I implore you to pay attention to this work of fiction that illustrates what could happen to you if you don't heed the experiences of those who came before you.
As a slacker, I spent my life avoiding hard work because I always knew it was a losing proposition as it was presented to me. My philosophy was pleasure over profit. I've always thought life was too short to spend it laboring on a job site, in a cubicle, or driving a vehicle to make ends meet. And on the rare occasion that I found myself in a situation where a company of any size employed me, I always made it my intention to do the bare minimum.
. Now I know that thinking like this won't go over well with supervisors, managers, and business owners. Still, they should know that when they hire employees to grind themselves to death for compensation that will not support a lifestyle of dignity, then they should be aware that those employees will eventually undermine their businesses and their profits.
If you find value in this YouTube video, please share it with anyone you think will benefit from it. And be advised, I will continue with content like this in the future until those who need these messages we'll see changes in the way business is conducted in America.
By the way, I'm going to post this on LinkedIn even though I know it's a possibility. They'll delete it for obvious reasons, but before they do, I'm sure a few people will see it and pass on the seeds of these ideas to others. In closing, it’s nice to be a disrupter since I've retired. Especially when disrupting the status quo is being done for the public’s good. Hell, if not us, who else will?

YouTubers say America is turning into a third-world country.
America is turning into a third-world country! Not my words, these are the sentiments coming from the people. And, faster than you think, because mainstream media outlets ignore the truth concerning John and Jane Public, aka the hard-working poor. This is why many have abandoned legacy media and now rely on independent channels and everyday people sharing their thoughts, observations, stories, and experiences to gain insight into what's really happening around them and why.
YouTubers Say America Is Lying to Us.
America is turning into a third-world country! Not my words, these are the sentiments coming from the people. And, faster than you think, because mainstream media outlets ignore the truth concerning John and Jane Public, aka the hard-working poor. This is why many have abandoned legacy media and now rely on independent channels and everyday people sharing their thoughts, observations, stories, and experiences to gain insight into what's really happening around them and why.
When the likes of Rachel Maddow of MSNBC, Anderson Cooper of CNN, and any of the propagandists at Fox News are pulling down annual incomes in the ten-figure range, how can they possibly understand what it's like to stand in line for weekly handouts at the local food pantries? While they may show up on Thanksgiving or Christmas Eve to serve soup to the working needy for the cameras, everybody knows they can't wait to return to their lairs of luxury. No, the State of this Union is rough, and it's getting tougher to endure every day.
Many are working two and three gigs to put food on the table and keep a roof over their heads, with nothing to show for their labor at the end of the month but a pile of overdue bills to pay. Millennials and the Gen-Z generations literally have nothing to look forward to but stress and dreams they know will never be realized. And that, SUCKS!
This so-called “Empire” is collapsing, and only those with their eyes and minds open are looking for an exit strategy. They know they've been lied to daily by those they elected to do the right thing. And it’s no secret, the rich have bought the majority of elected officials, own mass media, and control the narrative of every message we the people consume.
It’s no wonder the ultra elites have secured their lifestyles behind gated communities, chilling on private islands with servants at their beck and call. The high six, seven, and eight-figure earners don’t know what it’s like to live on the bottom, always looking up, constantly treading water, always trying to avoid drowning in a sea of debt.
The “Well-Heeled” don’t want to see John and Jane Public endlessly struggling in their lives because that’s got to be one Hell of a buzz kill. Well, at the very least, a downer. But most importantly, the “Haves” don’t want the “Have Nots” to see them living the Life of caviar and champagne on private jets, while they work side hustles to make ends meet.
If Joe and Jackie Loser ever realized buying Lottery tickets was for fools, and concluded this SHIT was never going to change in their lifetime, “We the People” might seriously start considering an exit strategy. Yeah, what about getting the FUCK out of Dodge? Open-minded Americans with enough sense to squirrel away some off-the-books hustle “moolah” for a few tickets to travel to places where life is more affordable and less stressful, are finding options to America’s Rat Race to heartbreaks and heart attacks.
And by the way, what America’s oligarchy fears the most is people waking up to the idea of exiting “Stage Left.” They know the best and the brightest will leave first. It’s the best and brightest being strangled in the dwindling middle class. It’s the best and brightest that have seen the collapse coming and know it’s only a matter of time before the final curtain falls on this political theater of lies.

Yo, TGIF I'm in Chill Mode for the foreseeable future 😎
What Do Ass Kissers See When They Look in the Mirror?
Since my retirement, I have more time on my hands to think deeper and with considerably more insight. That said, I realized how much time I've spent haranguing the Trump Administration and its cohorts for its blatant shortcomings and incompetence. However, it might be interesting to delve deeper into the psychology of those who made a conscious decision to remain loyal to a character like Donald Trump.
Being mocked for being ass kissing, booth-licking sycophants, with no self-respect, how do they look at themselves in the mirror and justify their existence? As I examine the White House staff, Donald Trump's Cabinet, and anyone who would remain in his orbit for longer than a minute, I am curious to know how people perceived themselves and what their friends, families, and colleagues thought of them.
As a prideful person, not to a fault, mind you, but I must admit dignity, integrity, and self-respect are high on the list of qualities I’ve embraced to maintain an image of someone to be a model to follow. So, the more I thought about this topic, the more I wondered if these flunky monkeys and career lackeys lived with themselves knowing they were being lambasted in the media, in their communities, or worse, behind their backs by their spouses, children, and other family members. And what about their neighbors?
Imagine the looks, the snickering, and the smirks that they notice when they’re shopping in a market or sitting at their kids' recital. Do they care? Or do they lack self-awareness to the extent that they’re oblivious to the ridicule? Think about it, if the public is laughing out loud about their boss, don’t they realize they too are considered laughing stocks as well. Do they ever quietly consider resigning, or have they reasoned that they’ve stayed too long and would carry a negative moniker like “toady” to their graves?
Short story time:
This weekend, Trump was booed mercilessly and yelled at during the awarding of the trophy to Chelsea Captain James Reese. After presenting the trophy to Reese, rather than allow the winning team to have their moment, Trump lingered amongst the players to bask in their glory. Even when the FIFA President tried to direct the attention hog off the stage respectfully, Trump seemingly ignored the coaxing and smiled for the photo opportunity. Disgracefully awkward and thoroughly disrespectful, to say the least.
I included this tale merely to give the reader another reason to ponder why anyone would allow themselves to be subjugated to a pompous, self-promoting clown like Donald Trump. Could it be Washington’s Flunky class is trading their dignity for the perks and access to power, the invites to the private parties of the privileged, or the networking opportunities that exist at the top of the food chain in the world of the sycophants?
In my view, these are despicable creatures of the lowest order and not individuals I’d permit in my life experience. But that’s easy for me to say, considering I'm an avowed Slacker and have been so since middle school. And it takes a lot of time, energy, effort, ambition, and commitment to be a hard-working “Toady” for some clout and material gain. No way, no how, for no body. No matter who the Hell they are. But hey, that’s just me!
