The post defending the Fox News interview is still the most absurd post on this forum….but I’ll be damned if the one about being forced to dye her hair didn’t make a legit run at it.
Aren’t there already many subreddits for fan fiction?
Let me check my ham-handed silly bingo card, while re-reading the “dye hair” post:
Unavoidable condition: CHECK
*BONUS: Physical trait
Shitty, Incompetent, Undeserving Boss: CHECK
*BONUS: Trust-fund bro
*DOUBLE BONUS: Narcissist, Grotesquely Self-entitled
Universal, automatic and unquestionably wrong situation / allegation: CHECK
*BONUS: Misogyny, sexism, ageism
Over-explaining things to make oddities “fit”: CHECK
Poses painfully obvious and unmistakably rhetorical softball question as being sincere: CHECK
I want to quit – and can – but haven’t (so as to further inspire comments, as if the fake situation still remains unresolved): CHECK
*BONUS: Lawyer, HR, BCC’D, lawsuit
I’m still working here, with these imagined monsters, so as to gather evidence / take them down from the inside (stand with me!): CHECK
I absolutely can’t wait for the follow-up post…here’s what I predict:
So, quick update: I told them that I was taking my story to The NY Times, that Dateline had already expressed interest in a tv series about my story, told the boss that I seduced her/his spouse, that his baby was ugly, that he didn’t deserve his dog’s loyalty, and hit him in the face with a cream pie…..and EVERYONE WAS JUST CHEERING, as they also joined me in quitting and walking out. Later, he emailed me to please come back at 50x my salary because they would have to hire 1,000 to replace me! I was too busy combatting capitalism by scribbling socialist-inspired poetry on homemade papyrus at my local park to respond. And when I told everyone at the Park, they also ERUPTED INTO CHEERS, CONGRATULATING ME, and saying how much they loved having a poet in the park.
Are so many of y’all falling for these because you just want to believe it? Wish it were true?
And the “dye hair” post is just the most recent example, there are dozens – many more, than not – that literally pop-up every day.
