Things That Piss You Off

Maybe ignorance is bliss after all.

I like to think of myself as pretty liberal until I see stuff like this.

I think it’s one of those ā€œblown way out of proportion internet thingsā€. This was the first time I’ve heard anyone do that in real life and it went over like a fart in church.

ā€œAnd he created them, male and female… and about 33 other flavors we don’t talk about.ā€

They were invoicing your company for that time. Not only were they paying all you workers to be there instead of working… then they had to pay that firm cold hard cash on top of it. Let that sink in.

Is that the King James authorised version? I don’t remember that quote.

It’s worse, they’re volunteers that have a passion for the subject.

Insanity. Nobody should ever do something like that. We just have name cards with preferred pronouns on them for exactly that reason.

On a stranger note, I was in a meeting with 3 other people and the guy who called the meeting started by acknowledging that the land we’re on was first occupied by indigenous people. I don’t really have a issue with this but when there are four of us present lol

If I ever get a card on which I’m expected to put my preferred pronoun, I’m putting Krom

I was expected to do this in class, felt so unecessary.

ā€œpolitical correctnessā€ has gone too far IMO: my writing professor felt the need to ask us if we felt like presenting, then proceeded to pull up chairs for US!!!

for sho, and should be mocked at every turn. That’s my approach.

just out of curiosity, were there any who put something you would’ve gotten ā€œwrongā€ had you ā€œassumedā€

no, the entire class was as straight as a linear function

In a previous life I worked with a colleague who was asked his title in his initial hiring. As a joke, he put Lord, not realising that every piece of correspondance from then on would come addressed to ā€œLord so and soā€

Confession here. On my way back from the gym I walk down a fairly crowded sidewalk. There’s some guy puffing on a cigarette blowing smoke towards the middle of the sidewalk, zigzagging around so you can’t avoid inhaling every single second hand puff. Walking like he owned the sidewalk. After about 2 minutes of trying and failing to dodge the smoke I catch up to him, he happens to exhale right in my face before I tell him to go fuck himself infront of around 30 people. I get angrier as I vent and it snowballed from there. Only thing that stopped it from escalating further was that he genuinely seemed scared after being confronted and was trying to play it off as being oblivious to what he was doing. Fuck everyone else right?

I walked right into someone’s cloud of exhale yesterday, and then followed another smoker at a distance. The libertarian in me feels that smoking laws have become draconian in the US, while the disgusted self-identified victim in me wishes for even more stringent rules.

Now that it’s getting cold they’re coming to my office wearing outer clothes that reek, and it takes time for it to clear. My weekly weed smoker is the worst. He smells like he hot-boxes himself in his truck before coming in. It’s definitely still present during my next appointment.

You can socially shame people for stupid behaviour without violating the non aggression principle. Calling someone an inconsiderate ass isn’t initiating force.

I can?? HOOORAAAAYYY!!!

Also, I thought you were from PA? Why are you using the Queen’s English?
