Sticks and stones can break my bones, but whips and chains excite me.

You'll either creep them out so they leave you alone, or you find a new friend with benefits.

But if you quit then you can leave them a few clues as to why you’re leaving and how they might avoid losing more staff.

The reason I'm quitting is because they didn't pick up the clues that I was looking to leave, and I don't want to help them avoid losing more staff because of it. The people I left behind should take the hint if they were smart.

Yes, and the PS2 was still more expensive than anything else on the market at the time. Plus there were shortages. I didn't even see a PS2 until mid 2002 when a coworker finally got one and invited us over for a party.

You forget how ridiculously difficult and expensive it was to buy a PS2 when it was released.

I think the scarier thing is the part where a user has 66 comments, 77 comment karma, and 109,000 post karma. How are comments not upvoted more when post karma is that high? If you made a good post, the comments you make in that post should be upvoted relatively the same. Why is no one getting comment upvotes when it "appears" to be popular?

Thanks...now I'm acutely aware of the spit in my mouth and when I swallow it.

It’s strange that there’s no comment from the company.

Yeah, that's not so strange.

Don't worry. When I tell someone "Have a nice day.", that means I've blocked them and will no longer engage with them.

I also understand that the advantage of encountering a bear is that they would know to immediately run the fuck away.

You've completely missed the point of picking the bear. It has nothing to do with the bear. Have a nice day.

Individual men were hurt by feeling classified as more dangerous to a random woman than a bear in the woods when their lived experiences place them well below that threat

It's quite obvious which side you've picked. You talk about men's lived experiences while complaining that women talking about their lived experiences "trampled over a lot of innocent men."

There's no point in debating this. If you're really just a spectator, then you wouldn't be actively arguing about it. But I don't have to play along with this. That's my choice...

It's one thing to say that you feel hurt by the idea that a woman would choose a bear over you. It's another to argue that they are wrong to make that choice and that women are just being irrational. You have every right to feel hurt and to express that you feel hurt. You don't have the right to tell anyone else what choice to make. That's the line that was crossed. That's where they were no longer innocent men. Of course you're not going to win an argument when you try to control other people's choices. The entire reason women choose the bear is because of men trying to control them. You don't have to like that choice, but you do have to accept it because it's not your choice to make.

That's the real winning move...accepting women's choices, no matter how "wrong" you think it is.

The choice may have been controversial, but the number of men telling women they are being stupid and irrational for picking the bear was unnecessary. Not to mention that it totally explained why women pick the bear.
