The lasers are still installing patches. Have them downgrade the OS to W7.

You obviously didn't use the search function, to see if our question has already been answered.

For one I hate that they sell applications no-one wrote, and then push you to complete it yesterday...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Whenever you come in contact with them, directly or indirectly, just put your fingers into your ears and sing a little. Don't listen to any of their fantasies and just ignore them. Double experience points if you resist the urge to listen when they actually turn up and try to explain to us how to do our jobs.
Ignoring them is not taken as rude, as they have only a loose grasp of reality anyway.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

Because we're engineers. Engineers and marketing are like dogs and cats. Some snuggle, most war.

marketing drives innovation via necessity being the mother of invention.

Both are necessary roles in business.... you might not like them, but it's hard for a business to keep a constant stream of work/funds without them. They sell the dream, we make it happen.

Marketing is the skin of your code. So if you hate them your code is misunderstood.

Yeah - but look how well that strategy worked out for Bill Gates.

I detest marketing morons because they're so bad at what they do.
They talk about themselves as though they're great persuaders, with silver tongues, who can make customers buy stuff that they don't want; but mainly they're just morons who have no idea how to use words/psychology to convince anyone to do anything, they're just incessant, persistent, un-get-rid-of-able nags, who cling to customers' backs like a sleep-paralysis hag until they sign the bare minimum.
The only thing they seem to be even remotely capable of talking up is themselves.
There are far, far, better ways of doing what they do, and I've lost years of my own lifetime teaching them to do it better (with marked results), only to see them almost immediately fall back into their moronic ways.
Speaking generically, don't waste your time on the bloody morons. Your time is better spent associating with people who have brains in their skulls.

Anyone have any experience with this site?
It seems to be a bit like Quora, but with a "matching" service, theoretically to find people with similar interests or that can be an adviser.

Level 15? What are the requirements? I never thought them to be especially strong, intelligent or wise.

The level rating for marketing executives is scored as 1/level for intelligence and wisdom (hence, the higher you rise, the dumber you become) however their armor class is a multiplier of their level and the corporate share value.

Not very realistic.
Throw a six for "traffic on the M25"? More like "Land on edge (or float and hover, humming gently) for no traffic on M25"

Please roll a saving throw +4 against marketing.
