How does an average guy in a decidedly below average organization "earn" over $9 million a year? DeMar DeRosan just signed a four-year deal with the NBA Toronto Raptors, a team which has only made the playoffs five times in their 16 year history, only once advancing to the second round; a team with an all-time "winning" percentage of an embarrassing 42%.
How much does the average guy where you work make? Has your company failed miserably for the last 16 years? Of course not--they'd be out of business. So, why is it that this band of losers is not only still making money, but paying huge salaries to everyone responsible for their massive ongoing failure? You know these losers wouldn't be paid so much if you losers out there wouldn't pay to watch a horrible team night after night, year after year, decade after decade. What--you just can't get your fill of failure? We have people homeless and children hungry while assholes pay big bucks to watch bigger assholes paid bigger bucks by bigger assholes to play another squad of assholes who are paid even bigger bucks...

Who said it?
Can anyone guess who said the following? Who can you imagine saying it? If you know the answer, don't spoil it for others.
"The richest one percent of this country owns half our country's wealth, five trillion dollars. One third of that comes from hard work, two thirds comes from inheritance, interest on interest accumulating to widows and idiot sons and what I do, stock and real estate speculation. It's bullshit. You got ninety percent of the American public out there with little or no net worth. I create nothing. I own. We make the rules, pal. The news, war, peace, famine, upheaval, the price per paper clip. We pick that rabbit out of the hat while everybody sits out there wondering how the hell we did it. Now you're not naive enough to think we're living in a democracy, are you buddy?"

New and improved crap
Pizza Hut really struck gold with this idea.
If the lactose in the cheese isn't making you sick enough, the fat and cholesterol in the red meat isn't clogging your arteries enough, and the white flour isn't clogging up your butt enough, throw in some hooves and ears (or beaks and feet if it's a chicken hot dog) into the crust. Oh, there's no time to pick up a phone. You need one right now. Order online! While you're at it, you may as well call the paramedics. The amount of time between suffering a heart attack and receiving treatment is critical for recovery. Invite them in to watch TV with you while you wait for your coronary.
