Hey, folks, did you hear how the Wells Fargo CEO explained why each customer had to have eight (and not 7 or 9) accounts? 

Because eight means great! 

I told N but he doesn’t believe me. 

What makes me nauseous is when I see this way of doing things seep into academia.

    I was under the impression that it was because eight rhymes with great. It would, of course, be great if D. J. Trump got only eight Electoral Votes.

      DJ Trump is going on the stump.
      He is so hated that he won’t get elected.

        I very much hope that you are tight about this.

          Of course, I’m so right. This will be a hard fight. But Hillary is bright and Trump will be out of sight.

    Maybe capitalism and academia are both doomed. Wait, that’s too optimistic. We are all doomed.

      Nobody is doomed. Things are getting massively better all the time.
