Me: I don’t know. Where?
Interviewer: What?
Me: I thought you were asking for a location, like “where do you catch the bus?” I don’t know where I can see 5 years into the future.

Me: Well, ask a stupid question….
Bulmash says that “years after my job application joke, I’m still feeling the need to smart-ass the job hunting process.”
It’s been more than two decades since my long-time buddy Greg Bulmash wrote one of the first super-viral online posts, his April 1997 McDonald’s Job Application humor piece that someone started forwarding around the Internet as real — and it went viral.
(You may also remember his earlier appearance on this site.)

Randy Cassingham is best known as the creator of This is True®, the oldest entertainment feature on the Internet: it has been running weekly by email subscription since early 1994. It is social commentary using weird news as its vehicle so it’s fun to read. Click here for the site — basic subscriptions are free.
Comments? Sorry: Facebook retired their commenting system (they didn’t even bother to alert me). Just as well, I suppose, but sadly there is no way to recover the many hundreds of comments made on this site. Lesson learned: never rely on someone else’s site for prime functions, especially “social media”!
Since this site is mostly retired now (maximum of one new post per month), I did decide that since all comments are now gone that I would not attempt to install any new commenting system. -rc
