The Insane "Social Justice" Thread pt IV

Just wondering how you knew about omegle? I had to look it up?

Davie504 had a video of him playing base on omegle. So I looked it up too to see just WTF it was. There's some other musicians I follow on Youtube that do the same kind of thing. They'll post videos of themselves on Omegle taking song requests.

Suuuuuure. Music videos.

I don't know what it is

I don't want to.

Gee, who'd have thunk it?

Probably worked out just peachy for the guy, though...

I know she didn’t write the article, but I just wanted to throw out that I would drink Lauren Chen’s bath water, you know, for posterity.

Pentagon issues rules aimed at stopping rise of extremism

The new guidelines come nearly a year after some current and former service members participated in the riot at the U.S. Capitol, triggering a broad department review.

I talked to a family member who is active duty and he said the new rules apply to likes on social media. If he likes. A post that is politically incorrect he can be kicked out for being an extremist now. This is insane!

Okay. Sure. I guess on some level I have to agree with the narrator. He’s an *******. Looked to me like he genuinely wanted to **** ‘em up. Which is why I think he’s an *******. But why did they want to fight him? For concert tickets? It also looked to me like they thought they could win. Reality is a bitch.

So, why do we have "norms" about not hitting women, yet men and women are "the same"?

Also..

This could have went in several different threads, it is long, but funny, and just plain pathetic as well. I am glad I am no longer in the work force.

It is from a Reddit thread in which people ask the group if they are the bad guy. Unfortunately, I can't seem to insert a link to the original without it inserting naughty words.

"We have two workplace cats in one area of our worksite. they add value to the worksite, we all love the cats and the worksite cat presence is not the issue. one of the cats (jean) is a tortoiseshell cat we have had for years. the other cat (jorts) is a large orange cat and a recent addition.

jorts is just… kind of a simple guy. for example, jorts can’t open a door even when it’s ajar— he shoves it whether he is going in or out, so often he closes the door he is trying to go through. this means he is often trapped inside the place he was trying to exit and meows until he is rescue

my colleague pam (not her real name) has been spending a lot of time trying to teach jorts things. the doors thing is the main example — it’s a real issue because the cats are fed in a closet and jorts keeps pushing the door closed. jean can actually open all the other interior doors since they are a lever type knob, but she can’t open this particular door if she is trapped inside the closet

tortie jean is very nice to poor orange jorts, and she is kept busy letting him out of rooms he has trapped himself in, so this seems easy to resolve. i put down a door stop

pam then said i was depriving jorts of the “chance to learn” and kept removing the doorstop. she set up a series of special learning activities for jorts, and tried to put these tasks on the whiteboard of daily team tasks (i erased them). she thinks we need to teach him how to clean himself better and how to get out of minor barriers like when he gets a cup stuck on his head, etc. i love jorts but he’s just dumb af and we can’t change that

don’t get me wrong— watching her try to teach jorts how to walk through a door is hilarious, but jean got locked in the closet twice last week. yesterday i installed a cat cutout thing in the door and pam started getting really huffy. i made a gentle joke about “you can’t expect jean’s tortoiseshell smarts from orange cat jorts” which made pam furious. she started crying and left the hallway, then sent an email to the group (including volunteers) and went home early

in her email pam said i was “perpetuating ethnic stereotypes by saying orange cats are dumb” and is demanding a racial sensitivity training before she will return. i don’t think it’s relevant but just in case, pam is a white person in a mostly minority staff (and no she is not ginger/does not have red hair

tl;dr: aita for ‘enforcing an ethnic stereotype’ by joking that orange cats are often dumb?).y.t.p.t.d.re often dumb?"

... pam said i was “perpetuating ethnic stereotypes by saying orange cats are dumb” and is demanding a racial sensitivity training before she will return...

You can't fix this level of stupid. Sorry, but "Pam" should simply not be allowed to return. She wastes the organization's time each time she tries to teach a cat how to open doors, etc. "Pam's" best use is probably to simply stay out of the productive adults way.

I would have fired her day one.

Dear Pam,

You have the choice to return or not. If you run out of leave time, you will not be paid, but the decision to return or not over the use of company time trying to teach cats to open doors is perhaps best reconsidered.

Sincerely,
Your co-workers.

If I got called in for that, I'd have to ask the boss if he was serious.
Then.. tell him to call me if someone dies.

Is Pam blonde?

On a different subject…



I’m good with that. This ensures that these lefty beta’s don’t accidentally reproduce. That’s a win for all mankind.
