snarky or honest? either way, I agree.

Well, hey, I dig the honesty.

75j | karma 238 | avg karma 2.83 · | 2016-11-23 03:09:19+00:00

Not snide at all, and I agree.

It could be written in a less snarky tone but afaik it is at least factually accurate.

treeman79 | karma 4392 | avg karma 1.78 · | 2020-09-19 00:47:44+00:00

Honest at least.

pjerem | karma 5093 | avg karma 3.43 · | 2023-11-24 03:43:39

Which at least is … honest.

rootusrootus | karma 23619 | avg karma 2.53 · | 2020-02-04 14:56:53

Honesty with tact certainly is.

a_t48 | karma 2051 | avg karma 2.02 · | 2020-01-02 08:31:38

Hey, at least it's honest.

BlackDeath3 | karma 783 | avg karma 1.55 · | 2014-02-21 00:31:39+00:00

Honesty and candidness is refreshing, I think.

arnorhs | karma 1849 | avg karma 3.07 · | 2016-04-21 19:12:20

Did not sound snarky at all to me. Very factual, and had a very minimal, neutral tone to it.

Also informative to people who don't know echo at all.

I love the directness and honesty in that statement.

tmcw | karma 2174 | avg karma 5.08 · | 2011-07-29 12:53:47+00:00

For sure. Though, I was impressed that he got through every paragraph without even a hint of the snark that this deserves.

pcthrowaway | karma 5282 | avg karma 1.88 · | 2023-08-22 04:44:48

That's... surprisingly honest.

kwertyoowiyop | karma 2878 | avg karma 2.36 · | 2024-01-09 17:45:40

Seems like the author knows their stuff, but I’d trust it even more without the snarky tone.

smrtinsert | karma 2231 | avg karma 1.42 · | 2022-03-31 13:26:57

Props to the honesty

Banekin | karma 82 | avg karma 2.93 · | 2011-01-12 00:11:37+00:00

I don't know, I find it (whatever it may be) to be refreshingly honest.

fargle | karma 1165 | avg karma 1.29 · | 2021-08-31 01:22:20

nice. at least, in a way, honest.

porbelm | karma 385 | avg karma 1.96 · | 2021-04-07 08:24:42

At least they're honest and straightforward :)

jpttsn | karma 1028 | avg karma 1.34 · | 2014-01-23 21:54:05+00:00

Direct statements indeed. The honesty is refreshing, even if it will naturally be countered for weeks by PR. It's interesting to gain some insight into how this sort of person views the world.

nostromo | karma 47008 | avg karma 10.15 · | 2013-05-10 17:57:23

I actually liked the blunt honesty. It's so much better than the usual "Your call is very important to us" corporate double speak.
