Doesn't open for me at the moment, but I'd like to remind you of the best LinkedIn parody, possibly the best parody of a social network in general, the hilarious ShlinkedIn:

... where you can create an account and post stuff!

I would make the text actually be shareable. I just got a brilliant one and I'd love to share it on LinkedIn as a sort of meme.

Here's what I got.

This is actually less cringe than some of the stuff that appeared in my LinkedIn-feed today.

#influencer pushed it over the edge for me.

I got a...uh...similar result

You can copy the text if you're willing to use inspect element and drill down the HTML.

Oh yeah, but what I mean is, he could make it "shareable", have a button to share the text have some hashtag, link, you know, viral market the tool and mock #influencers

>On my first day in this company, I scratched my ass publicly

>Yes, I scratched my ass in front of EVERYONE in the office.

>My managers reaction?

>They stood up for me and supported me. They could have shoved me through the exit door, but they chose not to.

>Today, I finally asked them why.

>Their response:

>"If you can scratch my ass like that, you can also go big"

>I'm crying here.

It is in fact a coherent story and also seems like something you would actually see on LinkedIn. Obviously went with maximum cringe.

Love it:

> It's only 10:47... but I already:

> 1. wiped my own ass

> 2. shared it via livestream

> 3. wrote an E-book about the time I wiped my own ass

> 4. launched a new online course on how to wipe my own ass (pssst... a little secret: my students learn to wipe other things as well)

> 5. Made $80K passive income

> What have YOU done today?

> Do you buy toilet paper?

> Agree? Thoughts?

I got fired!

The ones linked in these comments are hilarious. Sadly it is not working for me right now, probably exceeded some kind of quota.

EDIT: I did some testing; it seems to work fine for me on desktop Firefox, but not on my iPhone.

Here is what I got :) https://imgur.com/a/WwAg901

I love that the control is "cringe", you must of had a blast scraping and rating posts!

I don't know if "I took my clothes off and started a new job." is even cringe as much as its an unintended?

I dont do alot of linkedin - do people actually post things like that?

Can't say I've seen "take off my clothes and started a new job" but I've seen a lot of cringe.

There's always something cringe and quite sad imo.

Just a few days ago we had the crying CEO.

Well this one seems like a miss from the AI, but yes people do post things like this and even way worse.

You can check out /r/LinkedInLunatics on Reddit.

it works

The "AI" of this seems pretty pretty limited, I mean, '90s level AI aka "templating with random sentences from a small set".

The last hashtag on this one, generated from the verb I used, makes me think there may be a little more than that.

It turned out unexpectedly honest: https://imgur.com/a/iQ0QOFO

I have already closed mine but I put "I want a pay raise" and the CEO gave it to me and then I got fired, with the same exact phrasing like another example posted here. (I didn't look at the hashtags carefully, truth be told)

Clearly a meta commentary on how most LinkedIn posts follow the same formula.

Ah, another service that would benefit from being behind a CDN.
