Feels like 8º F outside – did you check your pipes?

GorT settled down enough after his post yesterday morning enough to read his email and found this one from Ghost:

Shiny Robot Lord

I am sick to death of people claiming to speak for Millennials. As one, I can explicitly state, that if you cannot find a job, you are not looking hard enough. I have dug ditches, framed homes, mown lawns, waited tables, and all manner of distasteful jobs.

 My immediate reaction to people who bitch about that is “Butch up, and do something terrible until something better comes along.”

I have a friend who lived with/off me for 2 years because he couldn’t find/keep a job because he wasn’t willing to do something shitty. I blame college for that, it raised his own personal bar so high that he would rather live in his mother’s basement than be productive.

If you guarantee work for everyone, you will have some lazy random who gets a job, and does it badly but then the productive company they work for loses out because they have to employ a mooch. I have that very situation at work right now, with a useless secretary that for some reason my boss will not fire even after doing a sub par job, not showing up for work, and just blatantly disregarding everything that is told her. I foresee that being the case with the vast majority of those “guaranteed” a job.

I don’t even want to touch social security right now, it will give me a stroke.

Don’t agree with your landlord? Work your butt off and buy your own land and rent it out and be the type of landlord you think you should be.

Point 4 is just straight communism.

This guy needs a boot in the gut from the feared yet admired Mandarin.

Hell, I’d be happy to oblige myself, as long as I can borrow some spurs from Czar

You are absolutely right when you say “Or you could just man up and admit what is really at your core: envy, jealousy and laziness.  You don’t feel like working because it’s hard.  But you still want to eat and post selfies to Instagram and live in a nice home and play Candy Crush Saga on your iPhone 5 all day.”

Spot-f*ckin-on.

GorT

GorT is an eight-foot-tall robot from the 51ˢᵗ Century who routinely time-travels to steal expensive technology from the future and return it to the past for retroinvention. The profits from this pay all the Gormogons’ bills, including subsidizing this website. Some of the products he has introduced from the future include oven mitts, the Guinness widget, Oxy-Clean, and Dr. Pepper. Due to his immense cybernetic brain, GorT is able to produce a post in 0.023 seconds and research it in even less time. Only ’Puter spends less time on research. GorT speaks entirely in zeros and ones, but occasionally throws in a ڭ to annoy the Volgi. He is a massive proponent of science, technology, and energy development, and enjoys nothing more than taking the Czar’s more interesting scientific theories, going into the past, publishing them as his own, and then returning to take credit for them. He is the only Gormogon who is capable of doing math. Possessed of incredible strength, he understands the awesome responsibility that follows and only uses it to hurt people.
