Bill Hicks, yo.



Well, that was precisely the joke. There's a branch of comedic theory that not only espouses the importance of surprise and shock, but also of crossing taboos. It's a fine line, and fine lines tend to alienate large sections of people. But as with the theory behind two-percenter jokes (http://www.creatingacomic.com/2009/two-percenter-jokes/), those who find humor in it have the added sensation of feeling like they are doing something illegal.

this is a fixation with you. I'm really not that much into Hicks, there've been quite a few other comics I was hooked on way more.
Please share so I can correct my stereotype of you with more accurate whitewashing.

So I may (very likely) have a clash between these two -

1) a meeting/presentation with my General Manager (that cannot be postponed) - as a fresh grad I think it'll be good opportunity for me to present my work

2) Shell's Recruitment Day (final interview stage) - which I've already postponed once because I was supposed to have that meeting with the GM but that got postponed by him later on. It's Shell, so...

what to do??

Option 1, unless you're planning to leave you current job asap anyway.
