PC Principal VI: What The Fuck Am I Reading Part Deux

[Vandalhart]

Jim Jefferies has a set about him not liking people sharing his jokes or recording, which tells you why the pouch thing is needed a lot of the time. It isn't so much about him saying something bad, as people taking it out of context when they share it to fuck with them.

Rogan has mentioned it a couple of times about when he's working his material out, it sucks for it to hit the internet early before it's fleshed out. I can also see if someone is filming for a special, they would like the viewers on whatever platform it's on to see new material and not stuff that was leaked a few months before it was released.

File it all under super not worth it. I'll die on this hill. If you're so self-important that you don't want people sharing your performance or being so bored by your performance that they are on their phones then whatever, fuck you buddy.

Like, it's incredibly rude to use your phone in a movie, or theater performance, or symphony, but fuck you if I'm gonna let you take it from me. If I want to go to the bathroom and check my texts or make a call or burn energy in a shitty gacha then I'm gonna fucking do it.

It was extremely worth it to see Dave Chapelle and Chris Rock in a club of like 200 people.

(they locked up the phones because Chris Rock was a surprise guest and he was working on his Oscars material)

I saw Pete live, and the warnings were there, but they didnt make us sign anything or hand over our phones. Made it very clear they were watching and anyone seen on their phone was getting the boot.

Honestly, it made it more enjoyable. No one was being distracting with a bright light next to you, no random phone noises mid set. Honestly bring it on I wish all theater shows had these rules.

I'm fine with this. I draw the line at someone fucking collecting my phone and handing it back to me afterwards like a god damn coat check. Or needing a key that i'll get back after, whatever.

[Salodin]

Yeah I've heard of that happening in NY clubs, but hasnt happened to me in FL yet.

Just to clarify.

They put it in a pouch with a magnetic lock. You keep the pouch on you and they unlock it after. They aren't confiscating your phones from my experience.

To be fair, phones are the real chains here, and people are getting free of them for a couple hours and getting entertainment in the process.

Cant overstate how surreal it feels to look at the audience and not see rectangles of white everywhere

Michael Avenatti is found guilty of trying to extort $25M from Nike.

Avenatti, 48, was accused in the Nike case of trying to shake down the company by threatening to go public with alleged evidence that the company had bribed amateur basketball players and their families unless Nike paid him millions of dollars. Avenatti was claiming to represent amateur basketball coach Gary Franklin, who testified at trial that he was unaware of the lawyer’s tactics.

Prosecutors said Avenatti’s audacious bid was spurred by a desperate need to get out from crushing debt of more than $11 million.

“I’m not f---ing around with this, and I’m not continuing to play games,” Avenatti told Nike’s lawyers last year, shortly before his arrest.

“You guys know enough now to know you’ve got a serious problem. And it’s worth more in exposure to me to just blow the lid on this thing. A few million dollars doesn’t move the needle for me.”

The coronavirus is leading to increased racism against Chinese in the U.S.

"Many may be quick to assume that just because someone is Asian or from China that somehow they are more likely to be carriers of the virus," said Robin Toma, executive director of the LA County Human Relations Commission.

A Los Angeles Asian-American schoolboy accused by bullies of having the virus was taken to the hospital after being beaten.

"He went to the hospital originally and went to the emergency room," Mr Toma said. "They were taking MRIs to ensure he didn't have a concussion or other harm."

In the Los Angeles area, flyers with counterfeit seals for the World Health Organization (WHO) have been posted.

They advised residents to avoid Asian-American businesses like Panda Express because of the coronavirus.

And in a now-deleted Instagram post on "managing fears and anxiety", the University of California, Berkeley health services department listed xenophobia as a "normal" reaction amid a virus outbreak.

Not surprised, the closet racists on an Uber driver Facebook group I'm on are bragging about all the rides they cancel on any Asian customer.
