Parasites. They're not just deplorable, they're fucking parasites killing their host. Many of my loved ones are in that camp but they're a part of an existential problem.

That's what I don't get though, these people seem to be delusional in that they think that they're a hard worker and looooove in person, so therefore every hard worker loves in person and the chaff will quit. Then they act shocked when their high performers largely leave to pursue remote or hybrid options. It's such a glaring inability to see people different from them as having any value.

Apparently I stumbled into Facebook somehow.

Well a couple things, if possible I call ahead and see if anything can be modified, and if not I find some reason to bail. If it's spontaneous, I benefit from, frankly, being a pretty heteronormative man so I can always manage to get beer and a large side. I really only have to let people know ahead of time if it's some kind of work event, in which case the staff member in charge of us attending the event handles it but I'm not in that situation a lot. Of course, most of the time I'm eating it with people who already know me well so they already know I'm vegan.

I realize the irony in this opening statement, but as someone who's been vegan a long time and never brings it up unless directly asked I can say that this people who are vocal about it tend to be the new vegans who are gonna drop out in six months because they just so happened to have a 1 in 6,000,000,000 person medical condition that makes it literally impossible for them to be vegan, which they discovered for the first time right after bbq season started back up. Definitely not just because they have a different outlook now, no sir.

Also the use of "sent posts" makes it extremely clear that they aren't even American.

Hey that's not fair, Trois Pistoles is also great.

It's almost like the test implicitly advantages people similar to the ones who made and maintain it, anr shouldn't br used as an objective measure of intelligence.

Well, it all ended so suddenly, mid scroll through the comments. After a dozen long years RIF, and for me reddit along with it, is finally dead. Thanks for all the entertainment RIF team, sincerely.
