This board is a bunch of hypocritical douchebags

So I asked permission to cross post my own thread, but then I decided, that I don’t feel like waiting , fuck you all I don’t care.

98 percent of people who posted are happy to judge someone as unworthy because of stained clothes. A couple said they are ready to fire that person on the spot. But Half the people in that thread would be the first to post their indignation if a kid was judged unworthy to be a cub scout if at the first meeting if his shirt was stained. Then they will post big “like” to a facebook post about anti-bullying

How many of you bitches whine about wasted resources but tell me I should throw away a perfectly serviceable shirt when I said it doesn’t matter? Or bitch about near-slave factories that kill 140 people in fires, so you can not be seen in a stained article.
Barely worth a rag, a shirt with an ink spot is, says the masses, flying their elitism flag high, but they will all be the first to say they don’t judge.
I am better then you. simple matter of fact I don’t care the color of your skin or the stain on your shirt.My boss has given me leave to find and hire the best, and me and my team back it up with extraordinary results. if you are a damn good programmer look me up. If you want to cling to the sad notion that clothes make the man, go sit with the other dinosaurs in the natural history museum. as waste way as humanity passes you by. Hell even CNN had an article about how we are becoming more enlightened, and that “what you own” matters less then “what you know, and what you can do”

In case I need to repeat,

Me and my kind are better than you

Make sure this man has his stapler.

Well, then you’ve come to the right place.

I’m a “damn good programmer” and couldn’t care less if someone has ink on their clothes. But I sure wouldn’t want to work with or for anyone who posts arrogant crap like “Me and my kind are better than you” on a message board. Get over yourself.

Also, if acting like a dick and insulting people you’ve never met is your standard recruitment tactic, I shudder to think what your company culture must be like.

So, you’re pissing on all those who offered stain removal techniques too? :dubious:

This was my first ‘best of the night’ comment.

This was my second.

Hilarious. The both of you.

The most widely accepted standard for determining if one species is “better” than another is survival of the fittest. That is usually demonstrated by the reproductive success of the species.

Generally, geek slobs don’t do too well on that score.

My kind and I are vastly superior to the OP. Not only do we judge people by the content of their characters rather than by the stains on their shirt, we also write with precision, flair, and proper punctuation.

We lead by example, demonstrating levels of tolerance and humor that the OP has yet to master.

So ink blots can be used to analyse personality and emotional functioning!

I don’t have any noble reasons why I dress like this, so maybe I’m just a slob. Yeah. Probably. Oh, well.

Could someone explain the stapler joke to the retard (me)?

We also remain vulnerable to Gaudere’s Law.:stuck_out_tongue:

In the movie “Office Space,” a nebbishy guy really cares about his red Swingline stapler, which he bought with his own money. But the boss believes it’s company property and confiscates it. Milton tries repeatedly to reclaim his beloved office equipment with barely-inaudible threats that if he’s thwarted, that he will burn the whole office down.

Originally inspired by Mike Judge’s original SNL animated shorts.

Untrue, for the simple fact I have never been **STUPID **enough to stick an ink pen in the dryer and ruin $200 worth of **my **clothes.

I am infinitely superior to you, you evolutionary failure[1].

[1] Well, who’s going to want to mate with someone who can’t even tell the difference between fabric clothes and plastic pens, huh?

I went to work dressed as a fountain pen. :frowning:

Sounds hot…

I totally had you called as a useless fat computer programmer. Imagine my lack of shock to find out I was right.

Wolfman, I think you’re confused. Not all of us are moderators or admins. :smiley:

Your outrage is misdirected, let me try to explain.

There is just this cultural taboo on stains. I don’‘t know why, it would be better if it wasn’‘t so, but there it is. Cultural taboos have little rationality to them. But seeing as that is a given, walking around in stains is a sign of disrespect. Breakign a taboo and deliberately shoking poeple is a sign of disresepct, a sign that you don’'t keep to the social contract and that you might do other unexpected of dangerous things. Again, irrational, but there it is.

The tried and true way to deal with such a taboo, other then by buying new clothes, is acknowledging that you break a taboo, and visually apologizing or making up for it. Dying your clothes is one such way, as is stitching a colorful application or a neat fabric patch to a piece of clothing to hide a stain or tear. Or wearing an artful scarf or vest. All of those say: I know my clothing is breaking a taboo, I know you might be insulted, and I have tried a way to prevent that.

For example, if someone went around cussing at work, he would be breaking a taboo, even if he didn’t insult anyone directly and didn’t harm anybody. Cussing is just words, right? But he would insult people, people wouldn’'t understand, would think he is an idiot, would feel insulted, shocked. But if that same person would, upon introducing himself, say: “Sorry, but I have Tourettes syndrome” he would acknowledge he is breaking a taboo, and people would be reassured that him breaking the cussing taboo won’t mean he will do other dangerous things.

As kids’’ clothes are usually cared for by their parents, no-one would judge a that kid cub scout, but everyone would judge his care givers. It’s the same taboo, there is no inconsequense or hypocrisy there.
