Reminds me of this woman I went on a date with.

Picked her up at her place, she smelled like mold. Like if you opened a bag of bread that was obviously moldy and took a big whiff.

On the way to the restaurant, she sighs and goes “I hate white people.” Zero prompting. She and I are both white.

At the restaurant, it was tirade after tirade of how men are ruining everything, straight white men are evil, nothing short of full communism will fix the world, all kinds of alt-left rhetoric too. Finally I blurted out “so am I just the antichrist then since I literally am so many of those things you hate?” No response.

She hated the government despite being on welfare. She hated to work despite not having worked for years. She hated men despite going on a date with one. Every hand that fed her, she sank her teeth into.

Of course my dumb ass still paid for the meal. She had the audacity to ask what I was doing after. I made an excuse of having to work, dropped her off, and sped out of the parking lot.

when I worked at a big company people would be like "this company kinda sucks" and I never once felt the group of people that made the company suck included me.

Is there a reason people feel so personal about generalized frustration?

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 2 points 4 hours ago

Do they say that to the board of directors?

Employees, in a great many cases, don't identify themselves with "the company." If you go off on a rant about a specific race, or a specific gender, you're damn right someone of that race or gender is going to be put off by it and interpret it as at least a bit about them.

Just flip the scenario to one where the man is complaining that "women suck" or that a white person is complaining that "black people suck" to their black date. And they can't even - from the sounds of things - cough up a "present company excepted" - which you might well see doesn't actually make it OK.

There is a line between general frustration and full on hypocrisy. If it was one or two of those things mentioned, whatever. My girlfriend often says men suck and I don’t think she means me.

But if she continued to express disdain for numerous other groups that included me, eventually the overlap would make me question what she even saw in me.

Bwahahaha, this is one of those stories that gets better and better the longer you read it lol

You know it's a good one when you start with rationalizing "Maybe her drying machine broke? Mildewy clothing right before a big date she didn't have time to fix, poor thing..."

to

"What the actual fuck" in the span of two minutes LMAO

Oh man, there’s mildew and then there’s mold. This was no mildew.
