Not invested stock wise, I just really like particular brands and reading headlines like "Blorp Corporation unveils butt-phone as it tries to regain edge on AssCorp"

Oh man I don't even care about whether the product has any point being owned, or even existing, I just so hope they regain that edge on their competitor!

I'm really into CEOs and their lifestyles and their opinions. I heard Swungus now has a female CEO. A stunning victory for feminism!

tbqh I can understand people caring a company if:
- they have used one of their products for years, or even rely on them for their own work and they know that all the competition's products are worthless trash : ie a carpenter that really likes his Phartz (tm) bandsaw and knows that the bandsaws made by Turjid(tm), Jackoff (r) or Pooopypants (c) are all worthless trash that will break down constantly and make a job take twice as long.
- it's one of those last 5 companies on earth that still treat their employees like human beings or their family has worked for said company for generations.
- you live somewhere where that company provides most of the jobs and the economy would be instantly ruined and thousands of people would lose their livelyhood if it went under. I mean obviously the answer is to nationalize that company but still.

aside from that if you're one of those people who care way too much about Apple or Tesla or whatever the gently caress, you will be one of the fir... sec... those that eventually go against the wall when the revolution comes.

I've been wearing the same pajama pants since 2004 and I don't know the brand because they are Kung Fu uniform pants but they're comfy as gently caress. The elastic on the waist is worn out and they don't have pockets but I'll be damned if they aren't the best pajamas. Shout-out to whoever made these really good pants.

Ten minutes before my big presentation to the store owner you encounter me in the employee restroom, staring intensely into the mirror. You witness me slip a finger under my collar and pull out a leather necklace, which holds what appears to be a small gold vial. I hold the vial to one nostril and give a quick sniff. From my dilated pupils and sudden aggressive energy (chest-beating and flexing) you assume the vial contains cocaine or some similar drug. But it is something far more potent: a sample of my favourite genius CEOs blood. I am a motherfucking innovator. I WILL nail this presentation. I WILL be promoted to assistant manager and I WILL be rewarded for upselling the most garlic bread the last two months running.

Just fyi, sick to death of the Swungus fanboyism. Selling some more units doesn't make you right. Everyone knows Molch phones reflect more of the following ideas: freedom, justice, truth. Swungus can't hold a candle.

Have you guys SEEN Bribble (BRBL) corp's Q3 earnings? My wife and I were both on the call. Really good energy. The CEO, Santo Whothefuck, really showed how the change last quarter to outsource IT has gotten rid of that bloated, outdated mess, letting the company soar!

I deal with tesla at my job. Only about 13% of the cars they make are street ready because *gasp* musk is a loving moron and takes it out on the little people. Please stop bootlicking your corporate overlord he’s not going to give you a free ride to space.

Poopins has objectively the best product but the others are just better at marketing. It's a real shame, i can't see them keep this up much longer with sales being the way they are. People should take a stand against Molch's lovely business practices, i for one will never buy one of their widgets again even if the Poopins equivalent is a bit more expensive.
