    In reply to Über-Programmer Ditches Yahoo Over 'Lame' Microsoft Deal
    Someone "invented" PHP? I'd always assumed it had plopped out of the collective asses of a thousand webmonkeys. Seriously, if I'd invented PHP, I wouldn't be bragging about it. #yahoo

    Joe Fucking Kernan. He was a rock star back when the market was going up, up, up. Now he is a still happy frat boy talking head who has become CNBC's best symbol of an excessive/crooked Wall Street era that (hopefully) won't return any time soon.

    I haven't watched the video, but was there any mention of the "peanut butter memo", or is she another person oblivious to the problem?

    Despite her seemingly caught off guard on that Fortune reporter's question, I usually find her demeanor to be somewhat refreshing.

    This message is completely content free except to inform you of when more messages can be expected. Is this where Julia Allison interns end up? That's the only population that I can imagine could tolerate this egocentric little brain fart complete with private medical information disclosure to the whole damn company as if it were the f'ing quarterly report.

    Jesus, she's like a David Mamet play, but with women. For an added bonus, insert the word "fucking" as often as grammatically feasible. An example:



    One last fucking thing before I fucking go. I've noticed that since the fucking reorg, people seem like they're fucking waiting for some fucking thing. I'm not sure if it's a fucking sugar-low or fucking what, but we need to fucking stop waiting and get fucking moving. Good fucking things do not come to those who fucking wait, they come to those who fucking make fucking things fucking happen.



    Now scream it, in your best Alec Baldwin voice.

    "I'm not sure if it is low-sugar or what..." Way to appear as leader and also improve employee morale. Not only fail to give them direction, but insult them for looking to you, the CEO, for direction. Bravo, well done.

    we're going to take a new approach to my weekly emails. You'll now hear from me every few weeks, but in-between will hear more from my staff



    HAhaha. That's hilariously stupid. A new approach to weekly emails is to make them by-weekly, and maybe not written by her. Wellllllll that certainly is a new approach alright.

    @Pope John Peeps II: She said "in between", which suggests the mailings will be weekly, but she'll only write alternate weeks...

    @achates: Yes. I understood the email, but upon further analysis found that it was funnier to just write the joke as is than to analyze my answer for boring, technical accuracy.



    I'm glad you were here to prove how right I was.
