It's a furced meme that I usually hear from Boomers. It's all of a piece with telling someone who's sent out thousands of resumes without so much as a single call back or even an email acknowledging receipt "ya gotta shine ya shoes and go to da plant and insist on talking to da owner. put on ya best suit and look da boss inna eye and give him a firm handshake..." It ain't 1947 any more and the only thing you're going to get is trespassed from the place and maybe, if the receptionist or HR are feeling mean today, arrested, but we all know this. Joining a church to pick up chicks is peak Boomer cringe advice.
"Ya say you ain't religious, but ya believe in God, right?" Yes, Gramps. I believe in Santa Claus too, and I'm sure seeking out an adult woman who still takes the Easter Bunny seriously is the best possible plan in Current Year. Are these people fur real? That's a rhetorical question. They believe what they're saying, I guess. The best way to deal with them is to let the absurdity just kind of wash over you, smile and nod while backing away slowly and making no sudden movements, I have found.
