I've been working on versions of this article for what feels like years now (anyone who follows me on here or FB knows I'm quick to call DM a "worthless vanity metric"). I even pitched it as a presentation at a few conferences only to be told, "I think everyone gets it."

@LeadingReport 🚨BREAKING: No evidence supports claims that GOP poll watchers were blocked in PA or that Dems told people to stay home. One isolated arrest for Disorderly Conduct, that’s all. https://t.co/LuEbg0eA0W

#PPC #GoogleAds folks dealing in #leadgen - are you seeing a higher than usual amount of spam/fake leads in the last week or so? 🤨

Kelce looks like he’s about to get killed jumping out of a helicopter at Deadpool’s encouragement…

Mahomes and Kelce look like the dipshit henchmen in a Jason Statham movie.

@THCapper Interesting theory. Sadly Domain Authority doesn’t align with search rankings - at all. Neither does Brand Authority.

Google might have their own internal metrics, but we have no idea how they work, and they use WAY more variables than we have access to for these studies.

@elonmusk Um, we wanted it to go down. Over population is one of our largest problems.

Just because you’re going to run out of poor people to work low end jobs isn’t a reason for people to crank out more kids.

@JNewellUSArmy @FCB_ACEE @JoeBiden Everybody is wasteful, but trying to say Republicans are not when we have the receipts is a bit silly. 🤣

[Jeff Ferguson @CountXero]

@JNewellUSArmy @FCB_ACEE @JoeBiden I agree - so why are you backing a Republican?

They’re horrible at generating revenue (something key for a business to be good at), they waste money at every turn.

I mean, what kind of businesses are you used to running? 🤣

[Jeff Ferguson @CountXero]

@Kat_Of_9_Lives @TheRISEofROD @JoeBiden Wow… I think you got BINGO on that one!

Good use of the cue cards!

[Jeff Ferguson @CountXero]

@FCB_ACEE @JoeBiden Not on any scale you can imagine.

[Jeff Ferguson @CountXero]

@SeldenGADawgs @JoeBiden You need to update your cue cards.

Maybe watch something else besides Fox?

[Jeff Ferguson @CountXero]

@TheRISEofROD @JoeBiden Gosh, good thing none of that was true.
