Got the feedback on my 'work so far' today and one of the things my instructor wants me to do is to replace my intro with 'Welcome to my slice of the web.'
Don't forget the animated construction gif at the bottom with the visitor counter!
Also, isn't that a mixed metaphor? You don't slice webs. Shouldn't it be something like "my strand of the web" or something?
Don't judge them! You don't know their life! Maybe they slice webs all the time! I bet Wolverine slices webs.

On a more serious note: give the prof what she asks for. Consider it valuable experience in the world of "keeping up with fucked-up client demands". Because your clients will demand more and worse things that will make you grind your bicuspids to powder.
Dont' USE the prof's version as your portfolio. Keep a proper, professional one. Just hand a fake one done the prof's way to the prof.

@WTFE Very, very true. My clients ask me to do all kinds of fucked up stuff, and while you can try guide them towards something more suitable, most of the time, they won't go for it, unfortunately. The worst I've had, is a client asking me to zoom out of a photograph they'd provided me with, so you could see more of the cushions.

@Thenomain Have had this happen, many, many times. And then they complain about their bounce and conversion rates not being that great. I now have the luxury with being a bit more selective with my clients, and try to weed out some of those ahead of time.

No, NVIDIA, I will not create an account for your "GeForce Experience" system just to download the latest driver. I know most corporations are hungry for trackable user information, stop embarrassing yourself. You already have the Shield to embarrass yourselves with, why go this extra mile?
Some people's CEOs...

In PA, there is Yuengling, the beer company, which supports Trump. Boo them.
In PA, there is also Yuengling's (note the 's), a small, privately owned, family-run ice cream company.
Yuengling's has made a Butterbeer ice cream which is freaking awesome.
Unfortunately, a friend is getting reamed a guy who cannot tell the difference between the two companies, despite being repeatedly told and explained and given links. Nope. In his mind, they are one and the same and she is a horrible, evil person.
Some people just need to not.

I find this is true. I will state I am not a Trump supporter, but it's none of my business if anyone is. As well, he is our president, good/bad/or whatever. I don't agree with anyone reaming anyone because of their personal agendas or beliefs. I don't have to take my money places, you are allowed to take your money where you want. I may educate you in the reasons why I don't go there, just in case you do share a belief that's the same and didn't know.
And two different places and still berating? If this is online, there's an awesome block function. If this is RL, there's awesome foot transport.

As a minority in many important ways, I actually find that this is very important to me now. Now, more than ever, I value my own opinion, and, in my own opinion, I must ensure that his Presidency lasts, at the longest, four years.
I don't agree with anyone reaming anyone because of their personal agendas or beliefs.
I generally don't, unless your personal agendas or beliefs have the consequences of forcing me to the leave the country or deny my right to exist for no damn good reason. Personal agendas include voting for people in power, even in ignorance.

It's online and if it were on my 'wall,' I'd block the person. But she's super sweet and it grinds my gears to see awesome people getting treated like that.
Plus it's motherfucking Butterbeer ice cream. Just let people enjoy things!

@Auspice Give me the social media links. I'll make this guy regret he ever even heard the phrase "social media"…

If it wasn't on a friend-locked page, I woulda thrown it up here for y'all.
In exchange, I will be getting some of this Butterbeer ice cream this weekend (it's a regional thing, but a grocery store near where I'm staying for the wedding I'm attending has it) and I will let you know how awesome it is.
... or isn't. We all know what flavor disappointment is like.

Isn't butterbeer just cream soda and butterscotch? It's what it tasted like at Harry Potter in Universal. I could be WAY off though.

Ugh. We are not going to turn in to the old WORA here let's go post autopsy photos and be incredible vile and hateful on people's real life media because the link to their site was shared are we?

Seems unlikely.

Never been my style.
I'd just go onto dude's feed and start feeding him with the information needed to stop being an asshat. At length. With pictures and circles and arrows and an explanation on the back saying what each thing was. Until he learned to stop being a shithead on social media when coming from a position of self-righteous ignorance.
-
I had no need/want of people dogpiling on the guy. My anger was mostly at how he was being shitty towards a friend who was just excited over an ice cream.
I think he finally got the point after my third 'Dude, I know, I am not doubting that Youngling, the beer, supported Trump. But these folks aren't them.'
New kvetch: cat is suddenly obsessed with the roommate's boyfriend and it is causing me no end of embarrassment that she will sit outside the roomie's door when he's in there and scratch at it.

Hahahahhaha
I know that's embarrassing, but I kinda think it's funny. Ceiling cat needs to get back to his ceiling, please open the door.
