The people in my business who wear lanyards are hotel housekeepers and if you think you're more working class than that, no you aren't.
But overall, "lanyard class" is *such* a stupid phrase. Hospital porters wear them. Secondary school teachers generally do. Peers of the realm, including Glassman, are meant to wear them around parliament and most are polite enough to do so.

This is such a wonderful post because it generates its own proof
a guy friend asked for advice on how to hit on a woman; obviously I told him leave her alone. but since he kept pressing, I suggested he try to make her laugh. unfortunately this is nearly impossible to pull off, given that men have no sense of humor.

I got to see an actual umarell today supervising concrete sidewalk pouring. He'd even wrangled one of the younger tradies and was confidently gesturing at the work, imparting what I'm sure was invaluable wisdom.

If I had a nickel for every team I support that has horses running around after a score, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that there's two.

Ancient NSW mythology tells us that at the passing of a Premier, their soul was escorted through the underworld and brought before the god Icac, who would weigh their corruption against a bottle of Penfolds
The greatest Australian honour is no medal or ribbon or postnominal set of letters, it is the privilege any one of us can have, to be called before the ICAC, and tell them lies

Is now the time we start to posit that Dutton was a long play, left wing deep cover op to completely hobble the functional right wing for a decade, costing them even the one tightly held public image they kept through any change in popularity?
Peter Dutton is the least liked major party leader in the history of the Australian Election Study back to 1987, “by far”.

Amazing how this new social media/mobile phone attention span effect is now spreading backwards in time
The real and true story of why Police Squad (the TV series Naked Gun was based on and easily the funniest tv show of its time) was canceled is legitimately insane and one of the most egregious examples of TV malpractice I’ve ever heard:

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.
