Ovid Technologies Puns

Listen up, fellas.Pull up a chair. I'm here to tell you about some smart people shit.

Whenever you see a company with blowout earnings but a market cap of only $300 million you want to take a close look especially when you know the revenue is going to continue in the future.

Here's the deal:

Have you gotten your vaccine yet? Chances are you were stuck with an RVP Retractable Technologies needle. If the needle was retractable, that's the one. Retractable Technologies. That's the ticket.

RVP just had earnings last week, and it blew earnings out of the water.
Why? Because half the country is half-vaccinated, dummies.
That's a shit-ton of needles they went through last quarter. And now the other half of the vaccinations have to get stuck into people. And then the other half of the country needs to get their vaccines too.

But wait, there's more.
"Dumbshits don't want to get vaccinated, man. COVID Vaxxes in the United States are over, moron!"
BOMP! That's where you're wrong, knuckledraggers!
First off, people are getting vaccinated at baseball games and shit now. There are still people out there who need their shot - haven't had the time, don't think it's a priority, whatever - who aren't opposed but it just hasn't been easy or fun. You can literally catch a foul ball, choke on a hotdog, and get vaccinated at the same time now.
Also more importantly the United States isn't the whole world. People seem to forget that when they buy stock in Apple or Nike or whatever other boring-ass companies are stable.
Those companies have high market cap because their shit is available worldwide and people want it.
Well guess what: people in other countries haven't had the chance to call the COVID vaccine passé bullshit the same way we have here. They're still waiting for their shots. The White House has a bunch of pull-up-machine jarhead fuckin' Marine Corps motherfuckers packing boxes of RETRACTIBLE TECHNOLOGIES' NEEDLES inbetween sets of burpees and puking because they ran 5-minute miles in desert heat and then those boxes are getting shipped worldwide.

As a matter of fact, the demand is so damn high worldwide that the feds cut a $27M check to help Retractable increase production capability so that they can keep up with the demand for the worldwide shipment orders that are going to keep coming in from DOD and HHS and so that they can eventually get to the backlog of orders that they still have coming in from the private sector.

Go post NSFW jokes somewhere else. If I can't tell my kids this joke, then it is not a DAD JOKE.

If you feel it's appropriate to share NSFW jokes with your kids, that's on you. But a real, true dad joke should work for anyone's kid.

Mods... If you exist... Please, stop this madness. Rule #6 should simply not allow NSFW or (wtf) NSFL tags. Also, remember that MINORS browse this subreddit too? Why put that in rule #6, then allow NSFW???

Please consider changing rule #6. I love this sub, but the recent influx of NSFW tagged posts that get all the upvotes, just seem wrong when there are good solid DAD jokes being overlooked because of them.

Thank you,

A Dad.

Well, toucan play at that game.

Martin Freeman, and Andy Serkis.

They also play roles in Lord of the Rings.

I guess that makes them the Tolkien white guys.

Happy Friday all, and Ave Venus. This will be a long post.

There has been a lot of discussion of the nature of the ancient Greek myths on the sub recently. We sometimes allow ourselves to be drawn into a false dichotomy when we talk about myth and I wanted to kick around some ideas with you all.

One of the most common questions from beginners and outsiders to the sub is whether Hellenists believe that the ancient Greek myths are real, i.e. literally true. From the castration of Uranus to the sexcapades of Zeus, there are many vivid and technicolour stories of the old gods behaving in often... unrestrained ways that people ancient and modern have struggled to reconcile with contemporary good behaviour. The gods also display a range of supernatural powers which are equally hard to reconcile with a scientific view of the world.

Two of the most common responses to the question from more established members on the sub are that the myths are either a) a metaphor, or b) fiction. These are convenient ways to answer beginners but I am a bit concerned we do not explore what either of these explanations means in practice. I actually think they are both partly wrong and I will explain why below. My argument is that myths are no more or less than myths; they are part of a Greek folklore tradition that we cannot prove and may not believe, but were in their time presented as fact to Hellenists for a range of social and cultural reasons.

Myths as metaphor.

I understand why this argument was made by philosophers in antiquity, and I understand why it is a popular view on this sub today. If myths are a metaphorical exercise designed to demonstrate moral or universal principles, then they are intellectually justifiable and can be reconciled with a rational, scientific view of the world. It is difficult for rational people to believe that a literal woman with bronze wings and snakes for hair once turned men to stone on the island of Gibraltar with no more than a glance. However, if the myths are metaphors then the story of Medusa can be interpreted as a parable about how human ingenuity, in the form of Perseus, can overcome the power of nature, in the form of the Gorgon. Or something.

I do not think this view is entirely without merit because literary criticism does allow us to find psychological themes in the versions of ancient folklore which have come down to us. That analysis can teach us things about the authors and maybe about the societies in which those autho

President Trump signed an executive order on Thursday designed to limit the legal protections that shield social media companies from liability for the content users post on their platforms.

"Currently, social media giants like Twitter receive an unprecedented liability shield based on the theory that they are a neutral platform, which they are not," Trump said in the Oval Office. "We are fed up with it. It is unfair, and it's been very unfair."

The order comes after the president escalated his attacks against Big Tech in recent days — specifically Twitter, which fact-checked him for the first time this week over an unsubstantiated claim that mail-in voting drives voter fraud.

Stock futures opened little changed as the overnight session kicked off Tuesday evening.

Earlier during the regular trading day, Dow set a fresh record closing high, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq touched and then retreated from record intraday levels. Bitcoin prices drifted above $49,000, after breaking above $50,000 for the first time ever earlier in the day.

Markets over the past month have priced in the likelihood that additional, significant fiscal stimulus will help propel the economic recovery and work alongside ongoing monetary stimulus from the Federal Reserve. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note hit a one-year high of about 1.31% on Tuesday, amid hopes of a firming economy.

West Texas intermediate crude oil prices surged to settle above $60 per barrel for the first time since January 2020, as newer supply concerns compounded with optimism over a post-pandemic resurgence in demand for travel and fuel.

That was the punchline

Without missing a beat he asks "Daddy, do you know how much room you need to grow Fungi like that?"

I did not know.

So he tells me "as Mushroom as possible!"

So proud.

Keep in mind, my son is 4 years old, so everything is an original to him.

I had to work late into the evening yesterday, and he was just going to bed when I got home. I had left home for the office nearly 14 hours prior, had a long day, lots of meetings, traffic, etc.

When I walked through the door, I was exhausted, run down, and starving. My wife hugged me and asked how my day was, and I replied, "Done. It was a good day, but has got me exhausted. I just want to grab a bite and go to bed. I'm hungry."

From my son's bedroom, I hear him shout, "Hi Hungry! Nice to meet you!"

Not only did it make me laugh, but I completely forgot about how hungry and tired I was. I went to his bedroom, and we laughed together about it. It was exactly what I needed.

Edit: Thanks for all the awards, kind strangers! I'll let my son know y'all enjoyed his joke too!

He was so brave and even tried to encourage us, the family around him, with his last breaths. He kept whispering to us to Be Positive.

He said, “Change the batteries in your hearing aid”.

So far no one has given me a straight answer.

Alzheimer, Grandma, it's Alzheimer.

The most radical exponent of the Taylorist idea was Aleksei Gastev, the Bolshevik engineer and poet who envisaged the mechanization of virtually every aspect of life in Soviet Russia, from methods of production to the thinking patterns of the common man. A friend of Meyerhold, Gastev may have been the first person to use the term 'biomechanics', sometime around i922. 6!) As a 'proletarian poet' (the 'Ovid of engineers, miners and metalworkers', as he was described by fellow poet Nikolai Aseev), Gastev conjured up the vision of a future communist society in which man and machine merged. His verse reverberates to the thunderous sounds of the blast furnace and the factory siren. It sings its liturgy to an 'iron messiah' who will reveal the brave new world of the fully automated human being.

As head of the Central Institute of Labour, established in 1920, Gastev carried out experiments to train the workers so that they would end up acting like machines. Hundreds of identically dressed trainees would be marched in columns to their benches, and orders would be given out by buzzes from machines. The workers were trained to hammer correctly, for instance, by holding a hammer attached to and moved by a special machine, so that they internalized its mechanical rhythm. The same process was repeated for chiselling, filing and other basic skills. Gastev's aim, by his own admission, was to turn the worker into a sort of 'human robot' - a word, not coincidentally, derived from the Russian (and Czech) verb 'to work': rabotat'. Since Gastev saw machines as superior to human beings, he thought bio-mechanization would represent an improvement in humanity. Indeed, he saw it as the next logical step in human evolution. Gastev envisaged a Utopia where 'people' would be replaced by 'proletarian units' identified by ciphers such as 'A, B, C, or 325, 075, o, and so on'. These automatons would be like machines, 'incapable of individual thought', and would simply obey their controller. A 'mechanized collectivism' would 'take the place of the individual personality in the psychology of the proletariat'.

There would no longer be a need for emotions, and the human soul would no longer be measured 'by a shout or a smile but by a pressure gauge or a speedometer'. 71 This was the Soviet paradise Zamyatin satirized in his novel We, which depicts a futuristic world of rationality and high technology, with robot-like beings who are known by numbers instead of names and whose lives are

Retractable Technologies about to SQUEEZE HAAAAAAAARD on r/WallStreetBets

PICTURES DETECTED: this DD post is better viewed in it's original post

Listen up, fellas.
Pull up a chair. I'm here to tell you about some smart people shit.

Whenever you see a company with $325 million revenue but a market cap of only $300 million (NOT 1.25BILLION, BOT MODERATOR!) you want to take a close look especially when you know the revenue is going to continue in the future. The bot moderator deleted this post at first because the market cap was too large. BOMP! WRONG! It's cap is under its YoY revenue! It's cap is only 300M dammit!

Here's the deal:

Have you gotten your vaccine yet? Chances are you were stuck with an Retractable Technologies needle.
If the needle was retractable, that's the one. Retractable Technologies.
