> [@SlackerInc](#): > > **Dibble** , it just occurred to me what’s likely behind this driving need to insist you pity me. It “just occurred to me” that I shouldn’t expect someone so obviously facing the particular mental challenges you do to realize that actual human emotions like pity exist. > [@SlackerInc](#): > > my progressive racial politics Ha ha ha! > [@SlackerInc](#): > > I assumed that I was talking to a white audience Yes, we know. > [@SlackerInc](#): > > So now you have made it your zealous mission to flip the script and insist that _you_ are the one who should pity _me_ . How does that (very on-brand) bit of narcissistic overthinking explain all the non-SubSaharan Africans here who also clearly pity you? Just face it, Slack, it’s your own socially-inept, low-EQ, self-awareness-lacking posts about your own sad life that provoke pity. They would if you were a newbie poster, rather than the vile bigot you’ve shown yourself to be. So you can take your elaborate internet pseudo-analysis and stick it wherever you pull your translations and philosophy skills, because you’re worse at it than those. Man, the autodidact is really showing on you when you try this kind of thing. It’s like you’re _consciously_ trying to evoke pity… ---

Well, it is when I started pitying you. Before that ridiculous post, I just thought you were a run of the mill weirdo. ---

You guys, have you ever tried to take one of Slacker’s better lines and put them on a picture of Michael Scott from the office?

> [@MrDibble](#): > > Truth be told, I mentally picture Slack as more Kevin Malone than Michael Scott… Dwight Schrute. One thing that’s obvious is that he has some kind of memory issue. He’s unable to remember things he’s said, or even positions he’s taken. He’ll ridicule someone for the same kind of remark he made 10 minutes earlier. It does speak to he complete lack of self-awareness. ---

That’s a great line to hone in on @TroutMan, but I think @Colibri has a point, and it’s the exact kind of “women as objects to serve me” kind of way Dwight talks about women. Example: [https://memegenerator.net/img/instances/80199312/birthing-hips-advantage-ashley.jpg](https://memegenerator.net/img/instances/80199312/birthing-hips-advantage-ashley.jpg) Did Dwight Schrute say that, or does Slacker have a “friend” (who may or may not know he exists) named Ashley? ---

I can’t tell if those are Slacker quotes or Office character quotes. ---

Yes, sixteen year olds, I do remember that and stand by it. I have no idea what you’re talking about with the fourteen year old thing, and I’m not out to research your uncited and bogus-sounding claim. ---
