Another thing about being an adult is understanding that things that may seem trivial to you are not necessarily trivial to others, and that belittling them for having to gall to care about things you don’t kinda makes you look like a dick.
In their game. Their joke.
Lots of people do. No one wants to fuck you. Sorry, bro.
I’m not dictating anything. I’m responding to people who are telling me and others that we have no right to be annoyed (not suicidal, not “triggered,” not threatening to boycott, just annoyed) by a stupid, nasty joke that demeans a group of people who really don’t deserve anyone’s scorn.
