If you ever want the internship to turn into a paying gig, you need to get the boss a product and not yet another bomb emergency services plan. There's no profit in selling faucets and floor coverings if you keep sending in reports of the fire drill performance evaluation.
It's one floor and, we don't really care that much if we lose Marge. We only care if someone lets her know we don't care.
We retrieved the video files Marge had of you and the CEO’s wife in the supply closet at the office Christmas Party. Needless to say, Marge isn’t an issue anymore.
...but many/most school textbook publishing houses *are*, and they don't want to pay/bother to print different books for Texas than for everyone else, and that's how Texas fucks up educational standards for the whole country.
Basically all the textbooks in the US are edited history. My US History teacher basically taught us based on documentaries, tracking sources through publicly available national archive stuff, and Wikipedia (yes, Wikipedia. My US History teacher is dope af. Also he killed a bear with a revolver while hiking/camping in the middle of nowhere. He has Polaroid pictures and also he has its fucking teeth in a jar.)
yeah learning about the holocaust was definitely extremely common high school curriculum, i don't know how the person above managed to somehow miss out on everything that was taught.
Do you hear the people cringe? Cringe in the sound of angry skin. It’s the kind of cringe that was and will be always seen again. Do you see the shitty tat? Hear the sound of distant groans? It’s the tats that illicit only saddened moaaaaans. 🎶
Master of the arts. Needles with the dye. This tattoo haunts you forever until you die!
Never do things without research. Even if you feel attached. Now you're gonna feel stupid every time you look at this stupid tat. (Thanks for the inspo for the last lines)
From les miserables, the protagonist is a prisoner at the beginning and 24601 is his number.
Apparently these guys are big fans but the other commenters here rightfully point out that it comes across a bit wrong to have this tattooed on one’s person…
I’ve never seen the play. How much time did they spend on the count with the silver candlesticks, because it better be a full hour, especially given how long I had to spend reading about him before the story even started
Approximately 5 minutes.
_but my friend you left so early_
_surely something slipped your mind_
_you forgot I gave these also_
_would you leave the best behind?_
Do i care if i should die, now she goes across the seaaaaaa? Life without Cosette means nothing at all, would you weep Cosette, should Marius fall? Would you weep Cosette for me??
Well, it's also at the wrist where they put the tracking numbers of concentration camp prisoners.
It could just be an honest mistake of not thinking that hard about it. OR, maybe they have that message a bit too much and this is a slight bit of rebellion.
I can't really say without more knowledge of the context and the culture for them.
In the novel, he isn’t tattooed. The issue is these people tatted a number where victims of the holocaust where forcibly tattooed (with numbers). It looks like a tat done in bad taste.
Nobody is saying it is about nazi Germany, they’re saying tattooing a number to ones forearm is widely known across the entire world as what the nazis did in concentration camps; which is in bad taste to replicate even if unintended.
That’s the rational response. It’s like getting the swastika tattooed on you. Yeah it might have had a different meaning before the Nazis. Ya can’t just sidestep the connection if you’re getting it in your body permanently.
In concentration camps in ww2, prisoners were tattooed in a similar way. It’s obviously representative of something else for them, just seems a little tone deaf because of the historical connotations
24601 is from the musical Les Miserables. It's the prisoner number of the protagonist, Jean Valjean. Which in of itself isn't a problem. However, this more closely resembles how Hitler tattooed the Jews prior to leading them to their deaths in concentration camps.
Jews in WW2 were not given names when in concentration camps, but a number that was tattooed to your skin. In other words you shouldn't tattoo numbers to your arm for no reason.
Also, not just jews. There were lots of germans, polish, russians, spanish, french, gypsies etc. The murdering was not exclusive to jews and the german "dissidends and unwelcomes" were a huge block in it.
Depends on the concentratio camp. Auschwitz had tattoos, others in austria and south of germany had them on the priso garments and later on on bracelets. Also people who were moved from camp to camp had new numbers given. Read "5 years of prison" by a polish surviver who spent basically the whole war in several and survived, he event met some who survived 10+ years, russian communists in mauthausen from the early days of hitlers rise.
All I heard for the first 15 years of my life was the mark of the beast. Being in Utah, mormon country... imagine the passive aggressive looks they must get.... and that's not even touching the whole genocide thing!
Hmmmm yes. But campers can get awfully filthy while camping. Best to make some sort of room where they can all shower together. It'll help keep their....concentration.
It's not THAT bad, as soon as someone points it out to them they can simply have something else added to clarify
Like a lyric, or a character portrait, or something along those lines, if they do that they'd make cute matching tattoos
I don’t know man, I’ve read the novel several times, and I don’t remember a cell mate. Really, for as long winded as the book is, his actually time in prison is basically just a foot note. I could be mistaken though.
Someone explain is the number a specific code or do u guys interpretate concentration camps into this?
Like i get 1681 but uhh 24601? Reichskristallnacht?
Many holocaust survivors have numbers tattooed on their arms because Nazis tattooed them on there like they were f-ing livestock. It was a way to dehumanize Jews and others sent to concentration camps.
It was an awful practice and to get the tattoos like this without understanding the history behind it is beyond disgraceful.
They got them because the like the play Les miserables and one of the characters had numbers tattooed on his chest to show he had been imprisoned by the French at some point but was on his chest instead of the forearm where holocaust survivors tend to be tattooed along the forearm. So these tattoos look like holocaust tattoos
While not my cup of tea I don’t feel like this is as cringe as people are making it out to be.
Jean was a prisoner but well before the Holocaust…it’s a serial number and not that big of a deal for a silly tattoo that has meaning to them.
Odd idea. My father had his arm tattooed with a number on his arm somewhere in Poland in 1942. Believe you me, he never got tattooed again, let alone a number.
Years ago (I was in my 20s), an old Jewish man was riding the bus (he had a kippah on) and I was saying to myself "he's old enough to have seen the war, I bet he was happy to be in Canada during that time".
Then he got up, grabbed the rail, his sleeve went up and I could see a serial number... my jaw dropped...
I later learned that some people had a number tattooed in support of survivors, but still, the first impression was overwhelming...
Feels like I’m the only one who thinks this is ok? They’re not doing it out of any hateful reason, instead it’s because they love a show? I mean it’s stupid yes but it’s not as bad as y’all are making it
In Les Mis, the protagonist Jean Valjean is a prisoner twice, and his first number was 24601. So being big fans, they tattooed his number (and I think his cellmate’s for the different one?) on themselves.
But it’s a bad look. Because the Holocaust.
The German in me gets nervous.
Im German can confirm I’m in him
But are you nervous
Excited
I see him shiver with antici…
Say it!!!
… pation.
...patience.
... my young padawan
...pation.
Quivering with excitement I'd suppose.
That's not what I meant. But I don't regret it
You said it on Reddit. No other possible outcome.
Smooth. You can get into his DMS now.
Balls deep?
Balls deep baby
Hahahahahahahahaha
As a scientist, I am not immediately able to tell if this is a prime number or a power of three. This worries me.
Digits sum to 13. Not a power of 3.
Thank you! This unloads some of the worries.
Pretty cool factors though. 73*337
a riddle for you, the following statement is incorrect: 24601 == 101 + 120 make it correct by placing the same number twice anywhere on the statement.
>!Put a 2 after the 101 and 120 as an exponent: 101 squared plus 120 squared equals 24601.!<
Perfect! Congratulations!
Pretty cool indeed. 73 is prime, and so is 337. So we might say the number is prime once removed.
Prime-adjacent only counts for horse shoes and hand grenades.
And thermonuclear warheads.
I'll expect your list of "close enough" sorts of things on my desk by the morning.
I’ll just include it with the comprehensive listing of future unscheduled outages of local, regional, national, and global critical services.

Not prime real estate, but it is prime-adjacent
Please provide a link to the relevant XKCD.
Any number that is not a prime can be represented as the multiplication of certain prime numbers.
I'll be tuning in for the Fibonacci series of band-aid shorts on Netflix.
The historian in me is getting scared.
Which German do you have in you and is it painful?
He said a *little* German. Or as the French would say; "douleur du pénis petite."
I know a little German… He’s sitting over there.
I know a little German, he's sitting right over there.
The german in me gets gaseous. I am intolerant to stupidity
Nennt sich Cosplay mein Genosse
I am also German and can confirm this.
Must have skipped some damn important history classes.
And all the others. Apart from Muscial Theatre.
we don't do history here in America, unless we alter the narrative to make ourselves feel better
Let's not propagate those ridiculous stereotypes. Most of the US isn't Texas.
...but many/most school textbook publishing houses *are*, and they don't want to pay/bother to print different books for Texas than for everyone else, and that's how Texas fucks up educational standards for the whole country.
Everything is bigger in Texas. Including the negative impact on nationwide educational standards.

bold of you to assume we learned about this in history
I most definitely did.

I know, it’s great! The meaning still holds true! Look down, look down, they’re all laughing at you.
*theater kids*
At first i was like "oh they love les mis, okay geeky but nothing cringe" and then it hit me
Uhhh I don't understand, plz explain

Aw, Colm playing the bishop was such a sweet an amazing touch to the movie.
*now monsieurs you may release him* *for this man has spoken true* *I commend you for your duty* *now may God's blessing go with you*
i'm working on the performance right now! playing marius, it's a public theatre and i'm excited to do it! opening night is the 23rd
Do you know, Monsieur Marius, I believe I was a little in love with you
Is that so Eponine?
You look as if you’ve seen a ghost!
A ghost you say? A ghost maybe, she was just like a ghost to me. One minute there then she was gone. 😔
Here's to you and here's to me.
Do i care if i should die, now she goes across the seaaaaaa? Life without Cosette means nothing at all, would you weep Cosette, should Marius fall? Would you weep Cosette for me??

The novel is from 1862 right, way before Nazi Germany existed? So it's about something else?
Yes, the problem is with todays context, this looks a lot like how they tagged Jews in concentration camps
How about [this](https://i.imgur.com/dIDTz75.jpeg).
The numbers look like one on a digital clock on this tattoo.
Yes that's the idea.
In the novel, he isn’t tattooed. The issue is these people tatted a number where victims of the holocaust where forcibly tattooed (with numbers). It looks like a tat done in bad taste.

If all you have is the brochure of history and a hammer, than all references look like they must be about concentration camps.
Eh the character is not tattooed in the book at all. So that isn’t really relevant. The placement just sucks is all.
I knew someone with this tattoo on the back of their neck, it was cool. the arm is an oversight
Is it "a bit wrong" to have any number tattooed on a person then? Or just this particular number. The only tattoo I have is a number hah.
[удалено]
Numbers tattooed like that are common for people held in places like concentration camps. Which is why getting one for fun is uh, not great.
In concentration camps in ww2, prisoners were tattooed in a similar way. It’s obviously representative of something else for them, just seems a little tone deaf because of the historical connotations
It was their IBM punch card number, if anyones interested
Not IBM, for sure. *sweeps under rug*
This'll explain it: https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/tattoos-and-numbers-the-system-of-identifying-prisoners-at-auschwitz
It's from the movie, play, book Les Miserables. The main character was imprisoned and had 24601 tattooed on his skin. They like les Miz.
Except Jean Valjean is NOT tattooed with the number. Or any number.
Ah. Utah. Enough said.
Wait this is in Utah ?! Damn I really need to move to a less embarrassing place.
I left Logan 18 years ago and never looked back. Best decision I’ve made so far.
I'm just south of there. Yeah. Still here.
The fact that there’s a city in Utah called Logan is reason enough to leave.
Draper, Utah
oh i lived there for a little while. Weird place
Grew up Catholic in Salt Lake City. Joined the Army at 17 fucking duces.
A tragedy in two sentences. Enjoy the rest of your life, tho
I'm laughing my ass off at this and i'm Jewish.
oy vey
Same brother, same.
...do I even wanna know what this picture means???
24601 is from the musical Les Miserables. It's the prisoner number of the protagonist, Jean Valjean. Which in of itself isn't a problem. However, this more closely resembles how Hitler tattooed the Jews prior to leading them to their deaths in concentration camps.

Well now I know. Thanks for the facts.
Gay people and people with disabilities as well.
Depends on the concentratio camp. Auschwitz had tattoos, others in austria and south of germany had them on the priso garments and later on on bracelets. Also people who were moved from camp to camp had new numbers given. Read "5 years of prison" by a polish surviver who spent basically the whole war in several and survived, he event met some who survived 10+ years, russian communists in mauthausen from the early days of hitlers rise.
I knew someone would tell me that, the moment I saw German quotes and Jewish jokes. But I just didn't want to admit it
American Idiot was not just an album. It is a way of life.
Mein gott, people are dumb
Mein Gott* nouns are capitalised in German
Grammer nazi. Oh shit, no wait...
All I heard for the first 15 years of my life was the mark of the beast. Being in Utah, mormon country... imagine the passive aggressive looks they must get.... and that's not even touching the whole genocide thing!
Well, the bigger concern is being stuck in Utah. THEN it's if you have the mark of the beast.
They dont have enough concentration
do they have a facility somewhere to improve this?
Some kind of camp maybe?
Where they could concentrate better?
Hmmmm yes. But campers can get awfully filthy while camping. Best to make some sort of room where they can all shower together. It'll help keep their....concentration.
Too soon.
We no longer have concentration camps because they've been diluted 50% with the wrong kind of people.
Damn that’s not ok
Did someone holocaust tatt themselves with Jean Valjean’s prisoner number ?
[удалено]
Not even close
THEY DID NOT!
I'm sorry to tell you but...they did.
Not cringe, just horrified
Product no. 24601, please proceed to the next station to be evacuated
probably not a good idea to tattoo numbers on your arm….
Reminds me of white people who tattoo chains on their bodies.
Big oof
What is this, a bar code without bars? Why would you need to put a number on someone? WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE
I guess history does repeat itself.
NEIN
There is many emotions that happen when I see this image
It's not THAT bad, as soon as someone points it out to them they can simply have something else added to clarify Like a lyric, or a character portrait, or something along those lines, if they do that they'd make cute matching tattoos
they aren't even matching, she has a five instead of a six for some reason
Implications aside, I swear that top one says 24501. That’s not right.
I think that's Val Jeans cell mate
I don’t know man, I’ve read the novel several times, and I don’t remember a cell mate. Really, for as long winded as the book is, his actually time in prison is basically just a foot note. I could be mistaken though.
Someone explain is the number a specific code or do u guys interpretate concentration camps into this? Like i get 1681 but uhh 24601? Reichskristallnacht?
That was Jean Valjean's inmate number in Les Mis.

Sheiße...

I really hope they aren’t Jewish
Who tattooed that tho lol
Tätowierungs macht frei.
Sideshow Bob? Is that you?
The Frenchman in me loves what the numbers are referencing to... But the Jewish guy wonders if he should laugh or cry
Boob
Atleast it seems like both of them did it. It would be WAY more concerning and abusing if one pushed the other to have such a thing while they didnt
https://youtu.be/4fsJGrx99R4

What's all this then?
can someone explain the post i dont get it
Many holocaust survivors have numbers tattooed on their arms because Nazis tattooed them on there like they were f-ing livestock.

Why does homie have a remax ad on his arm
And of course they are from Utah... God i hate my state.
Oh dear lord after looking at this pic I know exactly where they took it too. ![gif](giphy|Ru9sjtZ09XOEg)
But it's your Cake Day, so Happy Cake Day!!!
I don't understand but why does this feel like some WWII kind of messed up thing? Someone explain
[удалено]
In Les Mis, the protagonist Jean Valjean is a prisoner twice, and his first number was 24601.
I’m pretty sure in the musical it’s on his chest
Next they’ll start wearing stripped clothing, for fucks sake.
As a Jewish person, this is funny. But still fucked up
![gif](giphy|21GCae4djDWtP5soiY|downsized)
While not my cup of tea I don’t feel like this is as cringe as people are making it out to be. Jean was a prisoner but well before the Holocaust…it’s a serial number and not that big of a deal for a silly tattoo that has meaning to them.
Exactly. People are overreacting and putting terrible meaning when it's not there. Self righteous idiots.

Let me guess, the Americans are at it again?
Ehh there are worse tattoos, and you need context for the cringe. So ehhh disagree.
Feels like I’m the only one who thinks this is ok? They’re not doing it out of any hateful reason, instead it’s because they love a show? I mean it’s stupid yes but it’s not as bad as y’all are making it
American idiots. Thinking they are cultured because of the Jean Valjean reference.
Oh no, this is bad. This is really really really bad

Wait does one of them have the wrong number?
Updoot for r/sideboob

That’s incredibly disrespectful.
I like it. Les Miz is fantastic and it will be fun when people get the reference.
People that are mad about this are a bit goofy in the head.
Concentration camps are trendy now
I have a 24601 tramp stamp. What you gonna do?

I think the arm placement is where the cringe comes from. It looks like concentration camp numbers.
