Recently Appointed Brand Ambassador Goes Nuts

Recently Appointed Brand Ambassador Goes Nuts

Derclnimen. fis past is intended to bo @ tangen ia chook pramtion for bo fio

You'll notice that there's a lot foreigners on this network. Who knew the Spanish were so inviting?
I certainly didn't, but I don't speak the language.That fact must have gotten lost in the translation.
At first, I was annoyed by the overwhelming appearance of "buzzes" written in the Spanish language.
I don't speak any foreign languages. I've always expected the world to cater to me.
I'm an American, damn it!
I have, however, found myself hitting the brakes while channel-surfing to check out one of the Spanish-speaking soap operas on my cable system.
The women are drop-dead gorgeous and I really couldn't care less what they're saying.
But, for me, that holds true for most women.
I just turn the down the volume on my television, or tune them out, and listen to music.
I figured I could do something similar with beBee, so decided to check it out.

@hrs ts 3 qratuctons shot of 3 woman tx 3 bikin. It's
intended to sustain interest. 31 pos’re resdisg it, if WorkedThat could explain why I have no female beBuddies, though. That's what I call my followers: beBuddies.
I suppose if I had a female follower, I'd call her a beBudette. But, so far, none have taken the bait. Bummer.
That's right. I admit to being a male-chauvinist pig, so spare me your barbed-tongue comments and don't bother reporting me to the authorities. I've been married and divorced twice, so I've paid the price and earned the right.
However, not all of these foreigners communicate only in Spanish or reside in Spain. They come from all over the world.
Many are bilingual. That means I don't understand half of what they're saying.
I know, I consider it sneaky, too.
They could be plotting to take over the world and I wouldn't know it.  In it's current state, they can have it.
Others appear to be communicating in English, but they can be even more difficult to understand.
For example, I've met two tenured college professors who are deeply involved in research activities. 
One is infatuated with fractions. Its got something to do with similarity and chaos.
I'm horrible at math, so I don't have a clue what he's talking about. What does chaos have to do with fractions? His idea of spicing things up is throwing hydrogen embrittlement into the mix. I don't know if it hurts your teeth, but I had to give up peanut brittle. I do understand one thing he's well-versed in. It's called the complexity theory.
As I said, I've been married and divorced twice. I understand.
The other academic-type creates and then studies drug-dependent rodents when he's not swimming with horses or slipping Bob Dylan into every conversation. I think he was a student of Timothy Leary, but I could be mistaken.
I'm still trying to figure out what language he uses. It sometimes resembles English. It must a hybrid he developed in his bayou-based lab.
If I'd known that I could make a career out of what he does, I wouldn't be wasting my time writing crap like this.
I'm sure you'll agree and wish that I'd known. You've already considered reading this a major waste of time and desperately want to kick me in the nuts. I don't blame you. I get a lot of that.
Then there's the first guy I met. He lives in a rather bland foreign country, but takes great pride in directing a one-man
@hrs ts Bob Miplsn. He's reterred to wits often on this
sctwork. Why sot? B's + Nobel Pesce Prize wisner.campaign against Donald Trump. I guess that's his way of spicing things up.
He's managed to meet Bob Dylan, so he can't be all bad. I'll let you decide.
He's also a bit of a gang leader. More on that later.
Then there's an IT geek who resents not being one of the cool kids.
But, it's not for lack of effort. In his spare time, he's a musician and photographer. He likes to take daily walks in the woods, too. I thought that defined every woman's dream date. They always list those attributes on their dating-site profiles. Not that I would know anything about it.
One of the cool kids told me.
He's a foreigner, too, as is the next guy.
He's about to publish a book.
He sat around taking notes while his poor wife battled cancer. Now, he's going to add insult to injury by peddling a tell-all account of the proceedings. She's the one who should be autographing the book. She did all the heavy lifting.
The nerve of some guys.
There's also a traitor in the midst. He's an American who's joined forces with three of the aforementioned foreigners and formed a self-proclaimed think tank appropriately, if not affectionately, referred to as the "Geezers." 
They've begun to publish a weekly discourse where they all agree on something and expect us to find it insightful and follow along. Nice try, fellas. I read it in the restroom.
Their so-called revolutionary concept can be found published under the heading, "Four Curmudgeonly Windbags."
However, the cast of characters on this island of misfit toys, goes well beyond its rank and file membership.
SbeBee
The co-creators of this network, who have a strange affinity for the color orange, keep butting into our conversations.
Can't they be like all the rest and operate like absentee landlords? It's not like we allow our pets to jump on the furniture.
Don't go away mad, just go away. Your equity is safe with us. It's not like you plan to share it or anything.
Then there's the snake oil salesmen they've hired to promote the network to unsuspecting Americans.
They're traitors, too.
One's so full of it, that they set him up in an office overlooking the bull on Wall Street in New York City.
He tries to promote the network by escorting interested parties from bar to bar, gaining nourishment from the free popcorn. He even broadcasts his adventures live on beBee.
Another one lives in Colorado, which is one of the state's that legally dispenses feel-good candy everyday, not just Halloween.
How difficult can it be to persuade people to join a cult when they're stoned out of their minds?
But, seriously folks, everyone who's a part of this affinity-based network has a professional side, too. I've just introduced you to some of their shared interests, which brought us together. That's the affinity connection.
Each and every one is an expert in their field and truly enjoys sharing their knowledge, even with an idiot like me.
Yes, there are plenty of women, too. I just didn't want to embarrass them in this post by discussing their fine washables.
There's about 11 million more of these characters perusing this budding social network and it's growing larger each day. It's being referred to as the next unicorn. That's cute, but not very manly.
So, take a minute and check us out at https://www.bebee.com/ 
Don't worry, apart from me, there's plenty of intelligent life there.
Anyway, I joined the network and I've enjoyed every minute of it. In fact, they just appointed me a Brand Ambassador.
I'll bet they're regretting that decision right about now, if they haven't already. I could be the first bee to have his stinger forcibly removed. Ouch!

The Google app on my phone has become indispensable, Kevin. #38 In fact, I just used it to spell indispensable. I can ask it anything and it provides me with an answer or a big word. However, it is unable to translate Gerry's language.

Stick around, Paul. You ain't seen nothing, yet. And, since it's Friday and happy hour is just around the corner, I shall drink to your health and highly encourage you to join the party. As Phil always says, "Cheers."

I think Jim and Gerry and rubbing off on me, Praveen. I'm starting to have improper thoughts regarding Bob Dylan. So, I'm making it your responsibility to keep me out of trouble. I don't know what I'll do if you're successful in your campaign to have him knighted?

"An abomination completely lacking in social value..." Thanks, Jim, coming from you that means a lot. The only thing you missed was the part about alimony. I never paid a penny. My "family" of lawyers made her an offer she couldn't refuse.

If your wife lets you, check out a talk show entitled El Gordo La Flaca. I think it translates to fat guy and skinny girl. He's always getting guests to join him in a hot tub that he keeps on the set. It's at the end of the show. That's just damn good television.

Funny you should mention Monty Python. A buddy of mine recently shared a segment featuring the Ministry of Silly Walks on Facebook. I have to chuckle just thinking about it. I believe there's a Canadian office, too.

Thanks, Milos. I took advantage of listening to those wonderful selections of elevator music. But, I kept expecting to hear my floor being announced. You know, cosmetics, shoes and, of course, women's lingerie.

This is the 21rst Century, Don. You can come right out and say "penis." Even the networks are being allowed to say it in the states. Do you have any networks that broadcast to those double-wide igloos up yonder?

I'm anxiously awaiting, Javier. And don't think I didn't notice the flood of Russian buzzes you shared this morning. I especially liked the one that was prefaced in English, but the story was all in Russian. Something about LinkedIn being banned in Russia. Is beBee next?

Floridians are preparing for the annual arrival of the snowbirds, much like they do for a hurricane. Before long, they'll be Canadian droppings blanketing both coasts. And, I'm not talking about those left by the geese. When I lived there, I tried to get insurance to cover it, but it was too damn expensive.#11

Aha...How sometimes something fumes and transform humans into nuts. It is understandable how someone can become annoyed when things pop, with strangeness, giving a jolt and leaving traces of confusion. Yet, with sheer frankness and boldness, you took an initiative to express all that as you felt. Truly, how oftentimes we find people hemming twisted thoughts, with blurring lingo and adding mingled feelings as if they are drifting in the air or flying in the waters. Now and then, they keep snatching ideas from their own virtual castles and create chaos and devise theories of complexities. Reading them or gauging their writings can wobble your mind...mingled realities can only produce mingled inspiration. ..or turn you nuts because you cannot delve into their abstract content and have a glimpse of shapeless empery of chaotic scribbling. Randy relish your post and be a cheery ambassador! :)

Sometime humour (Spelled the CORRECT way) does literally get lost in translation. I do have to ask... Who'd you get to ghost write your polysyllabic comment here? Paul \? There are some mighty big words here.

As a former student of communication, I enjoyed reading all the comments. As usual, there are some who look too deep for a meaning and others not deep enough. As many of you know, I don't have a racist, sexist, or nationalist bone in my body. You also know that I have a penchant for poking fun at everybody and everything. That's just me. Who else can I be? (reminds me of a song) I knew the few bees I singled out would clearly understand that I was not intentionally mocking them or being mean spirited for my own twisted pleasure. . However, wasn't it interesting that each one recognized themselves? I would expect to be clearly identifiable, too, if the tides were turned. I intended to illustrate that a network based on worldwide affinity has the innate ability to promote effective communication, but it requires feedback (two-way communication). However, there are no universal languages available at this time and I'm too stubborn and stupid to learn any my age. Thankfully, Javier beBee, are working on providing us with the tools to accomplish this mission. I, for one, an apparently "pissed off macho Americano with alimony issues," looks forward to employing a variety of translators. I don't want to miss a thing and neither do the millions of my mostly English-speaking counterparts in the United States, who will soon be arriving. Nonetheless, I'll probably keep watching those Spanish-speaking soap operas with the sound turned down while I listen to music and dance the cha-cha.

I really enjoyed reading your "sweet honey" Randy Keho -- no, not that one (lol). You have an admirable sense of humor and a unique personal writing style which is commendable. My wife teaches Spanish so sometime she's watching the telenovelas anyway (lucky me). Anyway, these shows have very high ratings on channels like Univision and Telemundo, both of which commend a very large TV audience similar to the national networks in the USA. Muy bueno!

Mark Blevins beBee is the only real multilanguage professional network. LI is basically dominated by english/USA. We are already enjoying english, spanish, portuguese, italian, german, french and russian..... you will have a translator tool inside beBee very soon ! We believe beBee will generate more opportunities worlwide as our mission is to create a professional world more open and connected ! :)
Randy Keho you will enjoy the translator tool soon. Languages are not a barrier for any smart guy like you! Thanks for your buzz ! Have a great day !

Yes Paul, we do have "authorities". But don't tell Randy that I have to wait until next week when he is back from his vacation in Sarasota... If we didn't have 'authorities' how else to we keep it fair during 'Roll Up the Rim"? (Sorry to all the non Canucks - you may not get the context).

Pay no attention to that Yankee behind the green curtain trying to set up his version of beBeeLeaks.. Don't believe a word he says (types?)….. in fact, I've already reported him to the Canadian authorities.

beBee originated in Spain. Its success in the USA has to do with the dumb down of LinkedIn and the low exposure those writing in their platform get,. beBee fills a vacuum. Still it started in Spain.

Mark Blevins

I'm American and I speak Spanish. As well as some French and Lakota. You shouldn't assume everyone from the US is like you. As far as I can tell beBee is headquartered in Madrid, Spain. That would explain the Spanish writers.
