Have you considered employment with HP’s printer division? They could really use someone like you.
I tried to print out their application, but for some reason my printer bricked itself after I bought some 3rd party ink.
Friend of mine said he tried inserting a third party cartridge and his HP printer pulled a gun on him.
I knew this guy whose HP printer shanked the delivery guy as he was delivering third party cartridges.
My hp printer drank my beer
I went to the supply closet today and saw with my own two eyes 3 HP printers had our only Brother printer cornered. I backed away slowly and told no one.
You can’t just leave a Brother behind like that
I really didn’t want to but I’ve had run ins with that HP 5200 in the past and Betty is still covered in toner stains from when he/it dusted her. She was gently cleaning his roller when he suddenly exploded all over her face and hair. Milky white skin, blonde hair, both hands… totally covered in hot black toner… literally forced her to face clients the rest of the day covered in his letter batter. Sorry, not sorry.
I installed third party cartridges and the printer printed out a legally signed document stating that it was now the legal owner of my house.
Is there a free tier where really annoying advertisements are constantly displayed in your field of view?
Yes, and we’re all currently subscribed to it.
Just a second, I think I can hear Keith David and Roddy Piper brawling in an alley.
I love the hell out of that movie, but that scene is like the cinematographic equivalent of trying to pill a cat.
It’s like 6 or 7 minutes as well.
It’s like one of those Family Guy things that’s funny, goes on too long until it isn’t, and then keeps going until it is again.
Yes. Move to a city where billboards are legal and installed with the frequency and density of campaign signs.
That’s functionally how life works if you wear contacts, so 🤷
Or glasses. Or need eye drops. Or glaucoma medication. Or have literally anything other than unchanging 20/20 vision lmao. At least in the US
This has already happened…
No genie though
Any sufficiently advanced technologu
This is why I truly believe letting private companies administer ANY healthcare is a risky proposition.
A replaceable contractor or supplier is fine, but fully relying on a company to not go bankrupt, with something as invaluable as eyesight, is just plain stupid.
Government should have bought-out the company. I feel like society owes it to the people who got the implants. Ideally all healthcare and any critical software should be government owned or maintained so that there is never a risk of going bankrupt.
Private health is such a scam.
When you die:
For only €20.20/m you too can have 20/20 vision.
This was a plot in an iron man comic.
This was a plot in Repo! The Gentic Opera.
Wat
Superior Iron Man! The lead up to the story is: a lot of Marvel heroes were magically turned evil, things happened and they all were returned to normal, EXCEPT for Tony, who somehow managed to avoid being returned to normal AND hide that he was still evil, and went on to do some decidedly “modern billionaire tech bro” horrible shit with his advanced tech.
What a fucked up storyline. Still a good read, though.
Nestle already has that patent.
in reality the genie is like “man who needs a monkey paw when this guys around”
Why does this make me think of Neuralink…
Don’t give them any more ideas.
If vision isn’t free, then seeing isn’t believing!
Twist: Payment is on the form of a text or other short note telling you something memorable they saw, a relative, a friend, a flower, a tree, a cat, a dog, the list goes on. The emotional impact of these notes cause you to weep. Your heart grows. You can’t stop crying. Dehydration sets in. That growth on your heart, it’s a tumor. You die. It looks like the Joker killed you. Genie always wins.
Twist twist: you only charge .20 cents for a subscription cause there’s a shit ton of blind people and you’d still be a millionaire in 3 months.
Twist twist twist: once you’re set for life all future profits go to non-profits and charities, funding millions of dollars for restoring vision.
Twist twist twist twist: in order to continue the overall positive of charity, you start working on ways to cause blindness again so their subscription goes to other charities
Genies don’t do monkey’s paw. They are literalists
In the 1994 Disney classic “Return of Jafar” the thief who finds genie Jafar wishes for treasure so Jafar transports him to a sunken pirate ship full of treasure where he nearly drowns and I think is almost eaten by a shark.
So your can twist literal. In this case I did the same. Lawyered.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone mention Return of Jafar. I watched that movie on VHS so many times
Tony Stark did it first.
I’d pay $20/m for basic vision, I think you’re a little short-sighted, pardon the pun.
Rather than only focusing on the blind and visually impaired, just make everyone have to pay you for the privilege of sight.
