Sucks that you had to be a Trump supporting racist, Mr. Scott Adams.

Scott Adams is dead! I didn't know. He died in January of this year. A shitty fucking person with a horrible world view is no longer putting content on the internet. Happy to learn this.

(I liked Dilbert as a kid and owned a couple of his non-Dilbert books. It's sad how he went full-rightwing-nuttter later in life.)

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 14 minutes ago

The non dilbert books spoke to me as an edgy teen who was smarter than most people and dumber than she thought. As an adult though I look back and think about the sheer lack of wisdom and introspection it must take to write such things as a grown adult. He died as he lived, as wise as a 16 year old and angry that everyone else didn't see the light of his brilliance that he so vividly hallucinated. And I think that is how he fell down the right wing rabbit hole, he lacked the self awareness to see through his biases and was deeply drawn to a certain type of men who are overconfident assholes.

But yeah I liked dilbert as a kid too

[–] osanna@lemmy.vg 42 points 4 hours ago

He also noted that “If nearly half of all Blacks are not OK with white people,” then they should be called a “hate group.” His remarks were widely seen as racist—Adams claimed that he was being hyperbolic—and many newspapers dropped Dilbert.

Wow. Scott adams was a cunt. I just searched why y'all are celebrating his death, and I found this. Just........ wow.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 4 hours ago (3 children)

Dilbert was never funny anyway. Fight me about it.

[–] imadethis@fedinsfw.app 12 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Fighting takes too much energy. It was never a witty comic, but it would resonate with you when you were in the office job that had a nepo boss making random decisions. The life of the comic was just the same joke said in a thousand different ways though, which is why we can now look at it and mentally shrug.

[–] Windex007@lemmy.world 2 points 39 minutes ago

Boss: I hav a nu idea

Gilbert: No don't u realize how stoopid that

Boss: oh well I stil say do

Garfeel: oh boy Monday... NOT

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 15 points 3 hours ago

I don’t actually want to fight.

But when it first came out, it fit right in with Dave Barry and Milton, etc. If you were working just to get a paycheck, you could relate. The overuse of sarcasm could be overlooked bc it only happened once a week.

It never grew or evolved with the times, mirroring Adams.

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

The most boring comic in the Sunday paper.

[–] btsax@reddthat.com 9 points 3 hours ago

He also invented a vegan burrito called the Dilberito that was somewhat questionable

"As for Adams, he left the world of food behind, considering the Dilberito a failure, a lesson to be learned. Adams would later describe the nutritional value of the burrito as such: 'Three bites of the Dilberito made you fart so hard your intestines formed a tail.'"

He noted that taking ivermectin and fenbendazole to treat the cancer did not work.

[–] Ceruleum@lemmy.wtf 9 points 5 hours ago

Didn't tried bleach or sunlight?

Wait, why is Kermit here? Is there a dark part to Jim Henson?

[–] vithigar@lemmy.ca 48 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

No, I believe it's just other characters whose original creators are dead offering commiseration.

[–] westingham@sh.itjust.works 9 points 5 hours ago

Oh, phew. I was worried, Henson was awesome.

[–] TallonMetroid@lemmy.world 10 points 5 hours ago

I think it's just that the characters' creators are all dead.

Lol my buddy just married one of those. I don't know the terms of their pre-nup, or if they even did one. Wish we had a remind me bot so I could report back in 2 years!

If shitty person #1 does a shitty thing to shitty person #2, doesn't make shitty person #1 less shitty

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (1 children)

Shit clings to one another until some other shit comes along.

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 35 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Does it need to? I just love it when shitty things happen to shitty people. Its karma.

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 8 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

Absolutely not and it's ok to HA-HA in his face as long as the joke stays fresh, but I wouldn't call the girl "queen": she's just a gold digger that gave a valid argument for even more misoginy from the other side

[–] Hazel@piefed.blahaj.zone 7 points 4 hours ago (3 children)

You think gold digging warrants misogyny? Yikes 🤢

She just played the capitalist patriarchy, good on her. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 12 points 2 hours ago

Don’t hate the player, hate the game.

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 11 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I said think gold digging brings misoginy by consequence, I never said I think it justifies it.
Don't put words in my mouth just to cry for a cause there is no need to fight here.

And as a side, I always found the phrase "don't hate the player, hate the game" as dumb as the culture who coined it: who the hell is playing the game? The spectators? Of course you hate the players, they're the only reason the game is being played!

[–] Hazel@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

You literally called it a valid argument, don't know how else to interpret that.

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

don't know how else to interpret that.

It involves assuming the point of view of a misoginist who feels entitled to be misoginistic. I know it's not a position you thought you'd end up when you woke up this morning, but trying to understand what's going on in other people's head is a first step towards fighting intolerance.

[–] fracture@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 minute ago

"women should behave a certain way to not justify misogyny" comes off about as well as "black people should behave a certain way to not justify racism", imo

i appreciate your intentions, but this is not the way

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 10 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I read their comment in a way 'that stands in the way of eradicating misogyny' not in a way 'it makes misogyny allowed'

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 8 points 3 hours ago

Thank you, you reasonable person

Wait. Scott Adams died in January and I didn't know!? Where is his grave? I have a dance routine I'd love to perform.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 26 points 5 hours ago

Don't forget to hydrate.
