In much the same way that I can't see "Do you wish to process [Y/N]" without thinking of "You bet your ass I wish to proceed" from Die Hard, I can't see "PC Load Letter" without thinking "PC Load Letter? What the fuck does that mean?" (even though I sort-of know what it means)

It means Paper Cartridge Load Letter, which means fill the cartridge that holds letter sized paper.

Yeeaaah, Semi-Hemi-Demigod... What's happening. Listen, did you get that memo about working from home? We discourage that again. Yeah, let me get you another copy of that memo, mmmkay?

Yeah, I’m gonna need you to go ahead and login on Saturday. So if you could login around 7 that’d be great, mmmk…

Oh and I almost forgot, I’m gonna need you to login on Sunday too, k?

It’s an annual religious pilgrimage for me to rewatch this movie each year.

It’s about that time…

I recommended it to my Gen z hires and they started quoting it. Which is great.

What do you mean by satire, it's a documentary.
