How do you feel about the colonic cleansing coaches? You know, the ones who offer to help you  with a deep colon cleaning and can offer recommendations on the  solutions to use and the insertion of the hose.

I get those for free every 12-18 months on the NHS due to an unfortunate medical condition.

 

Really wish I didn't.

There's always been snake oil salesmen because there's always been folk gullible enough to buy the stuff, always will be, just the commodity that changes.

Are you implying Lewie is getting his cheeky oil massage from ladyboys? Coaching indeed.

There’s an online company that sell Life Coach / hell, ANY Coach certifications. Always makes me smile when I see them advertising. People really do buy this crap!

You say this about all of Lewis’s stories.

Yet you continue to read each new one. 
Why? Why, if you don’t like them, do you keep reading them?

Certainly it isn’t just so you can complain. 

No one in their right mind keeps doing things that they don’t like.

 

I don't read them, don't have to to know they are artificially produced just to create traffic

Thanks for adding to the traffic!
Do you often talk about things you haven’t read?

Good to know. Removes all question about the validity of your posts.
At least we all KNOW  that Lewie is creating AI fiction.

Now we know yours is fiction too! Thanks for the laugh.

Thanks, Lewie!  I love reading your stories over breakfast. Much more entertaining than the world news, that's for sure!
Keep 'em coming!

I love seeing all the "thumb downs" on Lewie's posts. I light a prayer candle for them cuz they must be SOOOO miserable.

 

(This IS "the pub" where we're supposed to be having fun, yes?)

Oh… wait.

 

You assume people are reading the stories. They read the first few phrases, and then move on. Few if any  read the story. I never do. It's the title, and a line or two and then I move on.

I think you'd find many of the thumbs down would stop if lewie actually wrote the stories. 

 

Or maybe engaged with the thread.

Aren't you making the assumption that we want the complaints to stop?
They are as entertaining as the stories. And there are STILL people who think that we don't know they are AI-written. Those are the funniest of all!


Please explain why Lewie's writing by himself vs AI stories is preferable. For all we know, his skill as an author might not be up to snuff. And as many of us are enjoying the stories now, why does he need to change? The rest say they aren't reading it, so no need to change for them, right?


For that matter, why does he need to engage?
Maybe his way of interacting with people is by submitting AI stories. 
Leave him be. If people need to make themselves feel better about themselves by handing out negative emojis, that says far more about them than about Lewie and his stories.

Right, so I’m scrollin’ through me feed down the pub the other day, just killin’ time between me midday nap and a cheeky oil massage up the soi, and up pops this bird I vaguely knew back in school, bit of a wallflower back then yeah, used to cry durin’ maths and once tried to sell bath bombs made of salt and glitter. Fook me, now she’s callin’ herself a life coach. Full-on inspirational quotes, selfie videos in her flat wearin’ skintight activewear with no sign of sweat, but a big bloody camel toe and bangin’ on about “transformational alignment” and “holding space for emotional truth.” I nearly barfed in me chips.

 

And it got me thinkin’, who the fekk is hirin’ these people? Who wakes up one day and thinks, “Y’know what I need? Some random stranger in see-through yoga pants and a minge gap the size of the Grand Canyon to teach me how to live.” 

 

Live? Mate, you’re already doin’ it. You woke up. That’s the assignment. You nailed it, bruv. No one’s forgot how. You don’t see dolphins hiring dolphin coaches or pigeons needin’ motivational pigeons on rooftops shoutin’, “Believe in yourself, mate! Flap bloody harder!”

 

Half of these so-called coaches look like they’re on meth. I reckon they need some help themselves, and are just one stubbed toe away from a complete meltdown. Eyes twitchin’, voices too calm to be normal, and that weird glazed look like they’ve just downed a bottle of Rescue Remedy and a chia smoothie.
 

And they’ve always “just come back” from some retreat in Bali where they sat in a circle with other lost souls bangin’ on drums and cryin’ about their inner child. Newsflash, love: if your biggest trauma is your dad didn’t clap loud enough at your school play, you might not be qualified to guide others through a midlife crisis.

 

And don’t get me started on the “certifications.” You click their link and it says they’ve got a diploma in Sacred Awakening from some online temple that looks like it was designed in Microsoft Paint. That ain’t a qualification, it’s a bloody scam with a pastel colour scheme.

 

Look, I get that people need a bit of help sometimes, yeah. We all hit a rough patch now and then. But you know what used to sort that out? Mates down the pub. A long walk. A good cry in the shower followed by a good chicken choke and a fry-up. Not some muppet on Instagram charging you £100 an hour to tell you “You are enough” while sniffin’ patchouli oil and postin’ selfies in front of a Himalayan salt lamp.

 

Let’s be honest now, “life coach” is just a title people slap on themselves when they’ve burned through every other gainful employment option and can’t even hold down a food delivery job. It’s career karaoke. Doin’ the motions without actually havin’ a voice.

 

Just another reminder that the world’s gone bloody bonkers, lads. And I’m sittin’ here tryin’ to figure out if I can charge for tellin’ people to stop bein’ daft and just go outside once in a while. Maybe I’ll print some business cards. “Lewie London - Unofficial Consultant in Gettin’ On With It.”

 

Innit.

you went to school in Thailand??

Very presumptive of you to know how people engage with these threads.

 

Despite clearly not liking these threads, you look at the title of each one, read a little and then move on.

 

Afraid you might actually enjoy one?

 

Beyond sad.

Innit.

Well, how true.

If you scroll on Facebook all those wonderful ads of using bells, flowers, scents, dances, aso then simple minds would come to the conclusion they are doing something wrong, at least missing a part of life.

Some of those are acting and talking like aliens...not from this world.

I am waiting for Lewie's account of his last interaction with a Personnel Department, although they do call themselves Human Resources nowadays.

 

Come on Lewie, you know you can do it.

You know the saying "Fool me once...." etc? Can you give us an estimate as to how many times you've been fooled?
