I feel like a real plumber would look at this, and just say "Now what the hell have you got going on HERE??? NO NO NO NO NO!!!! This is all wrong! Copper pipes aren't meant to be an asthetic! Why are there so many stupidly designed pipes??? And what the hell are you doing to that wrench???? Nooooo, none of this adds up! This isn't real! This has to be a simulation! I'm living in a simulation! A poorly made simulation!"
Then he takes out a gun to kill himself, but it morphs into several tangled copper pipes vaguely resembling a gun and shoots out water.

Electricians are worse. They will loudly complain that whoever the prior work did a terrible job, and it doesn't pass code. Even if they were the elec-chicken that did it. I swear it's a legal requirement.
Was going to mention how my company did a stupid powerpoint slide and filled it with computer generated graphics, and it struck me that the only thing I remember from this presentation is how dumb the graphics were.
You had these melty corporate "people" working on laptops with screens on the wrong side, and that's all I remember; how fucking ugly and shitty it all looked, and how annoyed I was at the waste of time. I don't recall the subject matter at all.
It felt like, if they can't be bothered to put together a proper presentation, and instead just fill it with ugly computer generated bullshit, then why should I put effort into taking that in? My take-away from the entire thing is that I miss clip art. Which is funny because clip art makes everything shit.
Their disgusting over use of AI shows that they don't respect human workers anyway; even many of the current republican voters will understand this, and jump ship.
Their overuse of AI imagery shows that they believe in post truth leadership. Trump posted a fucking picture of himself walking with a star wars aliens and passed it off as real.
Then the official disclosure (also lies) described that species as being like 4 feet tall, rather than taller than Trump, showing he has no attention to detail and doesn't even read his own memos.
Can someone actually fucking deal with this deranged despot? The most expensive thing we can do to the Zionist regime in Israel is force them to buy another president. Get Trump out of the oval office.
Betty, I got no idea how you F up a pipe wrench that bad, but go throw that thing away, and stand in the corner while I rip out these expensive pipes you've installed everywhere pipes don't go.
The pipes and tools are crazy, but I also think we've got some sort of half-hover van in the back? I swear there's a wheel missing, and I don't think the frame is square / straight / structurally sound.
...Nnnot that I want to defend the Soviet Union, but their propaganda poster artists did stuff just like this, except they didn't put absolutely cursed piping things in the illustrations, and this despite the fact the artists were probably hella drunk or something.
You would think a federal department would at least check to make sure the flag patch isn't on backwards. The blue field should be leading in the direction of forward movement, dipshits.
It's in the actual Flag Code, which the federal government should care about. A lot of pop-culture gets it wrong because it looks bad to people that don't really know any better. Of course that's why the AI got it wrong, because it was trained on TV shows instead of the actual regs.
I actually can't find anything in the flag code about that. I find a lot of other organizations citing the flag code, and purporting that same point though.
I'm in the military. In the uniform regs it dictates what you're saying. But that's not the flag code.
This doesn't look like it's depicting the military though... Also, pop culture influence doesn't make it a bad thing IMO. Being lazy and avoiding paying artists to produce slop is. Especially when this is supposedly the party of "hard work" and "bootstraps"
Not shown: the invasive government-mandated genital inspections these slop-generated plumbers had to undergo before they were allowed in the same slop-generated bathroom together.
Yet no skills went into making this poster. No real artist. No real actors. No real plumbers. No real photographer. They say they care about skills but show that they don't.
that doesnt look like plumbing solder nor do they have a solder tool lol
They forgot to take it out of the hover van. In fairness, I would also forget, after crashing through the bathroom wall and having the van tires fly off out of sight.
