From relationships, to job interviews, to startup fundraising, you name it, and if there's a chance for someone to turn me down, I'm sure I have experience. 

You might be thinking, "Why would I ever want the advice of an experienced reject?". That is a very good question, and you're absolutely right, you shouldn't take advice from an experienced reject. That's why the blog post ends here.

Hardware Is Hard

 When looking for startup advice, you are usually given standard advice, like "Focus on your strengths", or "Start in a field you currently work in". These are both solid pieces of advice, given that you actually have these strengths and you are able to notice what's inefficient in your line of work. However, I took the initiative to decide to completely disregard that advice and go into a field that I had no experience and limited knowledge of.

Scientists Find Break Room Coffee and Jet Fuel are 99% Similar

 Scientists from The Disreputable Institution have made a breakthrough discovery and found that break room coffee shares a 99% chemical composition with jet fuel. Scientists had theorized that the coffee was terrible, but they didn't realize the extent to which it truly sucked.  To get some insight on the matter, the research team decided to interview employees at various companies to see what they thought of this news. One stated, "I really am not surprised at all by this. I could feel my insides rotting almost instantly after drinking that awful coffee." Another employee stated, "Really? Maybe I can get some worker's comp for this." and then proceeded to chug the remaining pot of coffee.  Only minutes later, the employee realized this mistake and was immediately transported to the hospital. Unfortunately, they are in critical condition and the doctors estimate it's a 50/50 chance of survival. Our thoughts and prayers are with him at this time.
