OT: 111th Obsequious Banter Thread: If threads were floors, this would be the tallest building in America

[Beef Invictus]

@Beef Invictus Microsoft has announced they're now going by a weather-based categorization of threat actors. I cannot believe they're going to make me say this shit out loud. Here's the first page for example:

They're trying to kill me.

Good news! Some of them would be really cool to say out loud and would be very good band names. On the other hand:

Zigzag Hail. Spandex Tempest (a good 80s metal band name, though).

At least they matched weather events to countries. What happens when they run out of weather events to link to countries? Throw another new system at everyone?

Spandex Tempest was one of my safe words

It is a threat now.

 

[Flybynite]

It is a threat now.

I'd say it always was TBH

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

I don't know what any of this means, but I think you need a SPACE KAREN for Twitter related threats

CAT 5 CHUCK FLETCHER for an extreme mass destruction event..

 

[Kermit the Prog]

I thought these were new Marvel hero names.

Sitting down during work hours to write a resignation letter is the most fun I've had at work in years. Someone make this a cologne scent and I'll buy the shit out of it.

I request that you include the greatest and best adjective available in our lexicon: Execrable

I'm going to have to stand on a stage in front of a thousand people and call a group "Cuboid Sandstorm" while trying to retain credibility. I may die of embarrassment.

"Per Microsoft's definition, a .....". Throw them under the bus every chance you get.

There is a law in the IT industry. We have to rebrand everything and change layouts at a minimum every three years anyway, because reasons or something.

It lets the managers who are in charge but don't really know what they're doing feel like they're contributing something

This is why I work in a science field where everything is based on interpretations of colors in the wild.

Biological color draping. Yep. That sounds like something you'd do.

You anger me at times.

The color draping is actually usually inorganic (soils).

Soil can be organic

I'm aware. But specifically looking at inorganic coloration in the mineral portion.

Gimme a week and my IRL best bud and I could come up with better names for this stuff. Also maybe they're trying to kill you because they know you know too much and are about to escape the simulation. Also also they could've just based it on alcohol and people would get it.

I try to prevent people from breaking into sand we barely understand. I think you're ahead here by a mile.

Why am I not surprised that prick Portnoy would find this acceptable. This fat slob should have been put to sleep by every dude around him. The baby isn't being disruptive by choice, but he is.
