"Well the pope may be French, but Jesus is English. You're on!"

You made a meme using one of my all time favorite movies. If I knew nothing else about you, that would be enough for my upvote.

I have a slightly different experience. I worked in IT in my job before this one and I could totally fix my own problem except they have my workstation locked down behind software restrictions, firewalls and admin access that I'm not granted so that I can't perform the fairly simple fix.

So instead, I call support, wait 20 minutes on hold, and get tier 1 support. I explain the issue and all of the steps I've already taken and what actually needs to be done, and that I only need them to do it simply because they have admin access and I don't. They then tell me, step by step, to do everything that I already said I had done while they mouth breathe at me on the phone. Then, when those things shockingly don't fix the problem when done all over again a second time, they escalate it to teir 2 and tell me I will get a call back.

So I sit on my thumb for 30 minutes to several hours. Then get a call back from a nerd who recognizes a fellow nerd as I explain literally everything all over again (because teir 1's notes are a single 5 word sentence like "user says the thing broke") and says "oh, yeah, you're right. We just need to do that. Here let me remote in and do that real quick. Done." And now my problem is fixed. Thanks, Austin, you're the best. Please can I have your direct line for the future, so I can skip this other nonsense? No? I get it, but damn.

I'm gonna make some tooth brushes in two marginally different styles and sell one in rainbow and various LGBT flag patterns for the left and sell the other in camo, thin blue line flag and gun metal grey patterns for the right. Market the hell out of both of them based solely on being ideologically polarized to those each side hates. Milk everyone on both sides of their cash. And when they finally inevitably find out that they're both produced by the same company, I'll gamify it, posting weekly sales totals for each line and promising 20% of the profits at the end of the year get donated the a non-profit supported by the winning side. Let them fight each other by paying me. Also, no matter how overwhelming one side was actually winning, my posts would always indicate that it is a really close race, so that if just a few more people bought them, it might make a big difference.

That's all bullshit, I'd never do that because I'm not evil. But dozens of Libertarian sociopaths are taking notes right now.

I'm not saying it made sense in the context. The dude is a grade A moron. But he might have been using "co-ed" to mean "young female student," a common phrasing.

Also could have been saying "co-ed"? If it was "colored" he definitely stumbled over his words or uwu'd it into "cowowed"

It sounded like "co-ed" to me.

Sounded like "co-ed" to me. If it was meant to be "colored" he uwu'd it into "cowowed".

How else do you think they hire bands for their biannual child blood sacrifice parties?

Yeah, it came back from hiatus after George Floyd was killed and the police were attacking protestors, particularly the NYPD. They (rightfully) thought it would be in bad taste to make more copoganda at that time.

Right. My implication was that those things are sometimes or even often wrong, but they don't have to be.

Right and a few other captains came in that ruined the culture of the whole precinct
