The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Sam Altman says

Opinion discarded

I’d like to interject for a moment, but what you’re actually referring as Sam Altman isn’t his actual name, but as I’ve taken to calling him Scam Altman

His friend calls him Clammy Sam

It was singular on purpose

Is there an Origman? Can we go back to him for a bit?

If i force myself to read anything he's said, i make sure i read it in that pre-pubescent voice of his. I can never get past the way it sounds like he's straining to summon enough energy to make sound come out of his mouth. The ideas that couple with that hideous noise just make the situation magnitudes worse 🫩

Got a good laugh from that. Beautifully succinct.
