Honestly, I say we all go like, two weeks without personal grooming and just post our hairy fucking asses. End this retarded 'bussy' shit once and for all.
I mean, there's publicly documented evidence of multiple death threats against her
So many and so well documented threats that FBI... decided to do nothing? /u/HereComesMyDingDong, you know about that FBI documents about Gamergate released a while ago (that sentence felt ridiculous to type)?
Get real dude.
The FBI didn't take much action, if any, but the threats are literally documented in the FBI report itself. It's difficult to say which threats were sent to which people, but they're literally included in the FBI report itself, as well as purportedly more threats sent by Brianna Wu that were not included in the returned FOIA, potentially because they're still under investigation, potentially because they're meritless. I'm not commenting on why or why not that might not have progressed in an FBI investigation, only that they were in fact multiple death threats sent to Wu et al.

So this means nothing but you beating your dick, and they damned well are likely fabricated and exaggerated. Some teenage dickbag with no car threatening to drive 100 mines and beat your ass is not a real fucking threat, not if you've got a dick between your legs, not if you've got a pussy between your legs, not under any circumstance. So stop pretending it is.
FBI Agent "Remember when people thought we orchestrated an assassination of a President, and covered it up and got away with. And that we helped hide the fact that aliens have crashed on Earth and we are learning from their technology. Now some mental tranny wants me to close down a gaming forum because they said something marginally offensive....I am letting the next 20 terrorists into this nation, FUCK AMERICA!".
I mean, orbital rocks are a great weapon, yeah, but the Moon is so far out, and has a gravity well of its own, albeit 1/6 strength. Plus, from the surface, you'd have to build a mass driver, and I don't know that the Moon is rich enough in ferrous material that you could throw it effectively.
Then there's the whole 'things burn up in the atmosphere' factor, so your rock has to be pretty fucking big, which means grabbing one from the Belt and nudging it into Earth orbit with rockets, because you can do it with low thrust and let time and orbital mechanics do their magic. You can't build a rocket big enough to push a rock of the size you would need to do any damage to the Earth.
Women are under attack REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE the threats were credible REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I think the better question here is why you start literally shaking every time some woman has mean words said to her over the internet. Isn't your incessant need to rush to the rescue of the m'ladies a little ... sexist? Can't they defend themselves?
So what qualifies as a death threat? When you have the hair trigger sensitivity of a transsexual 'game' developer who's whole relevance is entirely based upon their victimhood, I get the impression basically anything and everything is a death threat so long as it gets the attention she demands.
Also, he was brought up as an example of everything that was wrong with STEM due to being a hell of a good example. A microaggression being worn proudly on television is a pretty great example of female exclusionary attitude in the field. Which, again, is why he apologized.
A good example of everything wrong with STEM: A microaggression.

A micro-agression made by a female friend of his, which he wore because she asked him to, /u/ZekeCool505
I truly, passionately hate the fucking idiots at SRD.
My only consolation is I know these morons will live out their life as unsuccessful Internet cry babies, shitting their pants and posting about shit like microaggressions and feminism rather than going about living their life doing normal things.
Human beings can go to space, survive in any climate, walk out of a burning car, get shot nine times and live, and hunt fucking lions, but a shirt with Barbarella-like comic women? Nah, that shit kills.
Holy shit, can you ban zekecool and cyanpineapple? These fucks are the ones who make the most retarded smug comments on SRD and part of the reason I stopped visiting SRD.
I personally fucking despise /u/cyanpineapple, he has the stupidest fucking opinions, i thinki just argued with him about the fact he thinks fucking with a grill for an hour is easier than just using a raclette lamp to make grilled cheese...
we were in an alton brown thread where he made grilled cheese on an actual grill, and this kid was all like "unitasker unitasker."
and im trying to say "starting coals, and getting a grill going for a grilled cheese is retarded."
and he just argued for no reason like he was right...
the point of an argument is to settle a dispute, I wanted him to understand that he was fucktarded for thinking playing with a grill is a good way to get grilled cheese, and that what was being done could have been done much easier.
he just wanted to argue for the sake of arguing it seemed like.
I thought SRD had grown past this 'protect our own no matter how bad they make us look to everyone else' shit. But as long as we still have 'laugh at trollX' threads, it is okay.
Trollx threads on srd are shit because the defenders always come crawling out of the woodwork going on about how it's a "safe space for women" and you just aren't woke enough to get it and I'm honestly triggered over people being so lacking in self awareness about a sub that's basically a gender swapped version of /r/incels meets /r/adviceanimals. And then non binary gender identities finally make sense to me because I don't want to be a woman anymore if that's what people think we're like.
The irony to me is that these "safe spaces" for women sound like a female version of redpill half the time, which they viciously decry and at the same time act the same way. But somehow they deserve a pass because oppression or some other bullshit. I say we send all the subs together to an island and see what amusement we get out of it.
What it's become? It's always been a place for the undeserving to feel morally and intellectually superior. This is the just natural progression of them taking themselves far too seriously. They don't realize they're fucked for focusing on pointless internet drama, they think they're the impartial and rightful judges of internet morality.
That's what makes /r/Drama great, we know we're fucked for spending this much time on petty internet drama. Also the bussy and mayocide memes are far less annoying than the constant "muh popcorn hurrr durrr" that constitutes the SRDine mating call.
No, there was a time when SRD was a very different beast. The smugness was always there and it never came close to the pursuit of shitposting perfection that /r/Drama is now, but I do remember a time when SRD wasn't entirely made up of a shower of po-faced cunts. I can understand that this is hard to believe.
3-4 years ago, it was basically Drama-lite. Then there was a weird shift towards the SRS side of the political spectrum and it really went downhill. It used to be a fun place, but now it's a shithole.
I got banned for commenting in linked threads...in threads that I found on my own, in subreddits that I was subscribed to (/r/videos, /r/nottheonion). Showed the mods my comment history in those subreddits and they still said "whatevs, we don't believe you" so I never went back despite that being a few accounts ago.
I used to love SRD. It was the trifecta of SRD, TPS, and drama. You'd get more retarded shit at SRD, more obscure shit at TPS, and more edgelords at drama.
Then SRD started getting all (((tolerant))) and shit so I had to abandon ship, delete my account out of shame, and start lurking here.
Yeah, it's like TPS never really knew what they were about. "We're SRD but we piss in the popcorn but we don't get mean and nasty about it". I stopped checking that sub when it was essentially the same links as SRD but slightly different community.
it's like TPS never really knew what they were about.
Well, it did. It was about having an alternative to SRD that wasn't moderated by syncretic. But then syncretic got booted out of SRD, so it lost it's raison d'etre but for some reason kept going.
I love how /u/TAKEitTOrCIRCLEJERK pretends to be so cool, calm, and levelheaded. But if you can push his buttons just the right way, the facade drops and the spergouts are legendary. The tranny rant is a classic, but my favorite is him bragging about being a reddit mod and how it got him laid.
okay I haven't seen these in such a long time, and forgot how they went. Can someone link me to his story about how being a mod got him laid, as well as the car joke thing?
Yeah, the change to circlebroke v2.0 happened like two to three years back. The mods tried to rein it in with their 'surplus drama' and 'no grandstanding' rules, but the userbase had already changed too much. Judging by what I've seen there recently it looks like it's just as bad as it ever was. Sour humourless fucks rule the roost.
My suspicion is that the userbases for these meta subs follow the "move one over" rule. SRS moved to Circlebroke, pushing the only-moderately-social-justice-obsessed into SRD, which in turn sent its South-Park-neutral refugees to Drama.
And when the SPNs got to Drama, they pushed the hardcore edgelords out to . . . god knows where, but we'll probably all be in that sub in a year once SRDines eventually take over this place.
/r/Drama kind of vacillated. Originally it wasn't too different to SRD, then for a while it went hardcore anti-sjw and gamergate obsessed, then it swung back to roughly where we are now, where anarchists and nazis happily bond over shitposting. Even after the swing though you'd still get these odd gamergate posts where a bunch of people you never saw in any other thread would pop out of nowhere to scream bloody murder about Kotaku and Polygon.
It was fun years ago when it was dedicated to laughing and pointing. Now it's been taken over by feminists who just want to just want to circleshlick about why everything offends them.
The people there have always been smug and self-righteous. Drama is only funny if it's people they don't like being mad about something. Then they proceed to spew salt in the comments about how mad they are that other people disagree with them.
That's complete bollocks. SRD used to hate SRS furiously. They ended up making an SRS megathread because so many SRS threads got submitted. Whatever you think of it now, there's no need to revise history.
When you say SRD hated SRS you need to make sure you present the correct context.
Subscribers largely disliked SRS and their disruptive antics were regularly submitted there. The SRD mods were much more sympathetic to SRS shenanigans and it was intentional changes in their moderation of the subreddit that turned it into the smug, condescending safe space that it is today.
In the time after the SRS megathread, which really accomplished nothing other than hiding SRS drama, the drama submitted to SRD was virtually indistinguishable from the posts in SRS with it being "bigot says something I don't like, look how dramatic, go downvote them" without there being any actual drama. It got so bad that the mods were forced to implement their surplus drama rules to force people to talk about something else other than the shit reddit said that offended their new subscriber base.
The SRD mods were much more sympathetic to SRS shenanigans and it was intentional changes in their moderation of the subreddit that turned it into the smug, condescending safe space that it is today.
I don't think it was intentional. I don't think they knew what SRD would end up looking like nor do I think most of them like it, hence their attempts to try and cut back the worst of it. In retrospect of course they absolutely should've let me say cunt as much as I wanted.
I don't know, they let silvertongue sperg out multiple times a day for years. Dumbshits attract other dumbshits. You start out with her, you end up with mayjay, mrsamsa, etc. And soon you have SRD in its present form.
A valid argument. But then again, at that time they weren't that far away from the whole syncretic debacle, the sub was pretty sensitive to banhammer happy mods.
someone confidently posting their opinion on the internet yet are too oblivious to how retarded it sounds to the normal person
is there a term for this?
It happens to almost every subreddit I can think of; they either go left wing or right wing, but very rarely stabilize somewhere in the middle. That's true for r/drama too, it's basically the 4th Reich right now. Not that I'm complaining...
I guess it's the consequence of reddit's retarded voting system.
a few people saying "hey, it's kinda not cool to sexualize women when you're in charge of a team of scientists in a disproportionately male field" and then millions of people sending death threats to those few people who voiced that completely radical opinion
fucking lol i love how they frame it like a child would after getting caught fighting
They probably did get death threats. It's the internet, death threats from internet tough guys happen all the time. That's where we got the navy seal copypasta from.
The weirdest part is that those things aren't even comparable. Matt Taylor brought a lot of progress to science and, as a direct result, to society as a whole. ZQ never really did anything good, if anything, she only brought more misery to the. I couldn't really give a damn about what happened to her.
Have you played her game? All of the normie options like "be a normal fucking person and have a good time at the party and then go get laid and wake up on Monday and go to your job" are greyed out.
My favorite part about depression quest when I played it was that it was barely a game, it was more of a choose your own adventure book on a website. All the options that you click on are just hyperlinks lmao.
regardless of r/drama hating srd and feminists, i think the shirtgate was warranted. i cannot imagine a job where you could wear a hawaii shirt with naked women and not get fired... except maybe barmen in a tiki bar
It was indeed a horrible shirt, what's even worse, it was apparently designed by one of his friends. Someone actually put thought into it and decided it was a good idea to make it.
i cannot imagine a job where you could wear a hawaii shirt with naked women and not get fired
First of all, they were in bikinis or some shit, not naked. Second, I've worked in IT for about 19 years, and some of the shit these socially awkward turbo nerds wear, or their appearance in general, is on par with that shirt insofar as it would be wholly unacceptable at most places of business.
not get fired
I had a boss whose work email address was in the Ashley Madison hack. So he was using his work email, work resources, etc etc to try and fuck married women while he himself was married. I'd say that's a bit more egregious than a shirt. He didn't get fired and it was widely known that his email address was in the dump.
except maybe barmen in a tiki bar
Naw, tiki barmen are more socially aware than your average turbo nerd.
First of all, they were in bikinis or some shit, not naked
not much better tbh
Second, I've worked in IT for about 19 years, and some of the shit these socially awkward turbo nerds wear, or their appearance in general, is on par with that shirt insofar as it would be wholly unacceptable at most places of business.
and now they face reality which is that people dont take you seriously if you dress like a preteen

that seems more like a company problem...

true. i wore the tackiest shit as a bartender at a festival, it was encouraged lol. i still know better than to do it at work despite being a designer...
and now they face reality which is that people dont take you seriously if you dress like a preteen
Tuchkash li ga? Your nails look like they were plastidipped, your eyebrows were stolen from a Puerto Rican whore, and you have more metal ornaments hanging off your face than a Christmas tree.
The fuck? I've worked in IT for 5 years and I've never seen anyone wear something within a world of that. I also worked at a radio station that lost a hostile workplace sexual harassment lawsuit and nobody there ever wore a shirt that graphic.
surprise surprise, in the real world, when you dress like an edgy preteen, you might get hired
my boss didnt give a flying fuck how i dress, however if i dressed ridiculously enough for clients to complain i imagine he wouldnt be very happy about it
Surprise surprise in the real world people as pathetic as you exist. People who have to ruin the career of someone who achieved more than you and your sjw buddies will ever achieve in your combined lives.
I actually thought that sjws were against dresscodes. Or maybe only when it's a shirt with sexy girls (and not cringey whales like you).
Yes kinda. Why the fuck do you care? Professionality is reflected in other things. It would really be great if we could not give a fuck about dresscodes. I bet you are against not being able to wear a hat indoors right? Is that not disrespectful but that shirt is? What makes it so?
i dont really care, i just think its tacky af and he shouldnt be surprised people were offended. if i tried the same shit at my (former) work my clients would get offended real quick, even tho we have no real dress code besides "dont dress like a toddler"
I bet you are against not being able to wear a hat indoors right?
its disrespectful. im not personally offended, but if you do it it shows youre the sort of a person who doesnt care for etiquette, and business is all about etiquette. traditionally its considered disrespectful because you only wear hats outside, so if you wear it indoors it conveys "i dont want to be here so im gonna leave as soon as humanly possible" and people find it rude
i dont think being an autist who pretends that all social conventions are useless is a good thing. theres a reason why those people tend to not have friends.
...well figures since no one apparently taught you etiquette
you can REEEEEEEEE about social conventions all you want, sometimes in life you gotta dress up to get what you want, and not following social conventions tends to have consequences.
i live in a country thats way less pressed about female nudity. you dont see topless women in public unless you go to the beach, topless men are rather rare until it gets super hot, and women breastfeed in public without much hassle. its simply not a topic of discussion
americans are oddly uptight about nudity while simultaneously being very casual in their dress code
They were skimpy, not naked, but agreed it's fairly tasteless. Still, it was just standard fat dork clothing, your imagination is crap. There are plenty of fattie nerdlingers with bad taste in shirts working happily all around the world in all sorts of lame boring jobs.
It warranted maybe a talking to about what is ok and not ok to wear at work, or at least on national television, and a half hearted Twitter apology. It did not warrant a global piling on undermining his greatest accomplishment in his life because of his shirt, which lead to a tearful and probably only honest national apology followed by job termination. It was a tacky uncle shirt of girls in bikinis, not an actual threat to anyone or anything.
The whole thing was blown way, way out of proportion, and I'd bet my savings the reason any people think otherwise is because of the double standard, knowing there's​ a snowball's chance in hell any woman would be vilified so much over such a tame shirt were she in his place.
The whole thing was blown way, way out of proportion,
true
it still puzzles me... WHO looks at that shirt and thinks "yes, THIS is what is appropriate to wear for a national event"
knowing there's​ a snowball's chance in hell any woman would be vilified so much over such a tame shirt were she in his place.
the shirt wasnt tame by any measure.
have you somehow missed the endless bitching about how hillary dresses? or the backlash rihanna got over that transparent diamond dress?
i know STEM people have a big love for horrendously tacky and embarassing clothes, but when you look at the giants they always dress at least business casual, and not like a teen who blew his allowance on hot topic shirts
it still puzzles me... WHO looks at that shirt and thinks "yes, THIS is what is appropriate to wear for a national event"
People who need social awareness told to them.
the shirt wasnt tame by any measure.
I've seen worse on Spencer's storefront windows. It's the tamest you can get while still technically being inappropriate. It'd be at home in a PG movie on the fat drunk uncle at the party.
have you somehow missed the endless bitching about how hillary dresses? or the backlash rihanna got over that transparent diamond dress?
I'm talking about a woman in his place, a scientist who just accomplished a huge feat in their field. I know women are criticized for their tacky attire as well but I can guarantee if a woman wore that shirt after doing what he did, the backlash would have been barely existent​ and the same people who piled on this guy would have defended the woman and called people sexist for focusing on what she's wearing as if it matters. That was my point.

i sincerely doubt this. she probably wouldnt get accusations of sexism, but there would surely be backlash
i dont understand people who think clothes dont matter. if you went to a bank and all bank tellers were in fursuits, would you be comfortable doing business with them?
i sincerely doubt this. she probably wouldnt get accusations of sexism, but there would surely be backlash
I probably worded that poorly. I mean people who criticized and piled on this man would do a 180 if it was a woman, and call people and articles criticising her shirt sexist for focusing on her clothes rather than her accomplishment, not calling the woman herself sexist.
i dont understand people who think clothes dont matter. if you went to a bank and all bank tellers were in fursuits, would you be comfortable doing business with them?
I'd make sure to read the fine print more carefully on any account or loan I take out. But in all honesty I'd probably go elsewhere, however if they apologized and didn't do it again I'd definitely take a second look. Like I said his attire arguably warranted something, just not nearly as much as what happened.
Like I said his attire arguably warranted something, just not nearly as much as what happened.
i completely agree
theres way more pressure on women to be aware of societal expectations, especially appearance wise, so i doubt there will be a woman in a public position fucking up quite so colossally... but here's hoping :P
If the bankers told me
"It's a huge day for us, we landed a billion-dollar account even though we're a local credit union, and we're having a festive day where people dress all wacky!"
I'd understand.
I still think fursuits are weird and tacky, but the explanation is easy enough. Have you never had a special event at work where normal rules and attitudes were relaxed a bit in celebration?
I know you've probably never been out of your own state let alone your own country, but this happened in Europe, which doesn't have the cultural aversion to boobies like we do here
The shirt was from a friend to promote her art.
Guess he was either too much of a doormat to tell her no or he was really delusional enough to believe the shirt is fitting enough.
SRD is dull dull dull. Every one of them is a sensitive sally with an agenda who see's agendas in everybody else. Boring. I'd rather be here, calling all you losers losers.
I generally turn off custom subreddit styles because most subs suck at making it look decent or they have annoying shit like the fucking gigantic triggered pepe here.
So sometimes when I'm lazily browsing and I see a headline that is obviously a drama thread I'll click on it but forget to check whether it's SRD, in which I avoid the comments like the plague and just click through to the linked drama, or whether it's /r/drama.
Several times I've read the post title, assumed it was /r/drama, started reading the comments and it hits me like a thunderbolt. "Who the fuck is upvoting this smug shit, they all need to be bulli... oh.... oh my god... *hurk* oh god... it's all over my computer... I need to go take a shower and scrub my eyes with soap."
As somebody who cares deeply about representation in STEM, I'd be emotional if I realized that I had done something to accidentally hurt representation.
I think the shitstorm over a crappy shirt painting the physicist as an evil white sexist would have done way more damage to STEM's reputation than the shirt itself.
Also /u/UncleMeat11 I know that as an SRD user you're very emotionally sensitive, but normal functioning people don't cry over women not doing science.
Jesus christ, /u/cyanpineapple, how shit of a person do you have to be to have 0 empathy for someone that was bullied out of their career field over a fucking shirt?!
At the top of the thread, the karma disparity between cyanpineapple and the guy defending shirtgate dude is large but as you go down the thread, cyanpineapple is getting more and more upvoted, which is fucking depressing.
Dude, he said he cried because he felt bad about making a stupid mistake.
He made no mistake /u/cyanpineapple , there were just a bunch of feminist lard elementals that had to make a fuss out of nothing. The real mistake here is women's suffrage.

I personally fucking despise /u/cyanpineapple, he has the stupidest fucking opinions, i thinki just argued with him about the fact he thinks fucking with a grill for an hour is easier than just using a raclette lamp to make grilled cheese...
we were in an alton brown thread where he made grilled cheese on an actual grill, and this kid was all like "unitasker unitasker."
and im trying to say "starting coals, and getting a grill going for a grilled cheese is retarded."
and he just argued for no reason like he was right...

n/a allwordsaredust 2017-06-22
Trollx threads on srd are shit because the defenders always come crawling out of the woodwork going on about how it's a "safe space for women" and you just aren't woke enough to get it and I'm honestly triggered over people being so lacking in self awareness about a sub that's basically a gender swapped version of /r/incels meets /r/adviceanimals. And then non binary gender identities finally make sense to me because I don't want to be a woman anymore if that's what people think we're like.
n/a lifesbrink 2017-06-22
The irony to me is that these "safe spaces" for women sound like a female version of redpill half the time, which they viciously decry and at the same time act the same way. But somehow they deserve a pass because oppression or some other bullshit. I say we send all the subs together to an island and see what amusement we get out of it.

n/a MegaSeedsInYourBum 2017-06-22
What it's become? It's always been a place for the undeserving to feel morally and intellectually superior. This is the just natural progression of them taking themselves far too seriously. They don't realize they're fucked for focusing on pointless internet drama, they think they're the impartial and rightful judges of internet morality.
That's what makes /r/Drama great, we know we're fucked for spending this much time on petty internet drama. Also the bussy and mayocide memes are far less annoying than the constant "muh popcorn hurrr durrr" that constitutes the SRDine mating call.
n/a SamWhite 2017-06-22
No, there was a time when SRD was a very different beast. The smugness was always there and it never came close to the pursuit of shitposting perfection that /r/Drama is now, but I do remember a time when SRD wasn't entirely made up of a shower of po-faced cunts. I can understand that this is hard to believe.

I used to love SRD. It was the trifecta of SRD, TPS, and drama. You'd get more retarded shit at SRD, more obscure shit at TPS, and more edgelords at drama.
Then SRD started getting all (((tolerant))) and shit so I had to abandon ship, delete my account out of shame, and start lurking here.

Oh wow I remember TPS. Damn did that fizzle out quickly.
n/a Butch_Patterson 2017-06-22
Yeah, it's like TPS never really knew what they were about. "We're SRD but we piss in the popcorn but we don't get mean and nasty about it". I stopped checking that sub when it was essentially the same links as SRD but slightly different community.
n/a SamWhite 2017-06-22
Well, it did. It was about having an alternative to SRD that wasn't moderated by syncretic. But then syncretic got booted out of SRD, so it lost it's raison d'etre but for some reason kept going.

A lot of SRS retards migrated there and other leftists in general.
n/a SamWhite 2017-06-22
Yeah, the change to circlebroke v2.0 happened like two to three years back. The mods tried to rein it in with their 'surplus drama' and 'no grandstanding' rules, but the userbase had already changed too much. Judging by what I've seen there recently it looks like it's just as bad as it ever was. Sour humourless fucks rule the roost.
n/a skeetsurfing1984 2017-06-22
My suspicion is that the userbases for these meta subs follow the "move one over" rule. SRS moved to Circlebroke, pushing the only-moderately-social-justice-obsessed into SRD, which in turn sent its South-Park-neutral refugees to Drama.
And when the SPNs got to Drama, they pushed the hardcore edgelords out to . . . god knows where, but we'll probably all be in that sub in a year once SRDines eventually take over this place.
tl;dr: close the borders.
n/a SamWhite 2017-06-22
/r/Drama kind of vacillated. Originally it wasn't too different to SRD, then for a while it went hardcore anti-sjw and gamergate obsessed, then it swung back to roughly where we are now, where anarchists and nazis happily bond over shitposting. Even after the swing though you'd still get these odd gamergate posts where a bunch of people you never saw in any other thread would pop out of nowhere to scream bloody murder about Kotaku and Polygon.

n/a TheCodexx 2017-06-22
It's always been a toilet.
The people there have always been smug and self-righteous. Drama is only funny if it's people they don't like being mad about something. Then they proceed to spew salt in the comments about how mad they are that other people disagree with them.
It was SRS-light before SRS was even a thing.
n/a SamWhite 2017-06-22
That's complete bollocks. SRD used to hate SRS furiously. They ended up making an SRS megathread because so many SRS threads got submitted. Whatever you think of it now, there's no need to revise history.
n/a ReBurnInator 2017-06-22
When you say SRD hated SRS you need to make sure you present the correct context.
Subscribers largely disliked SRS and their disruptive antics were regularly submitted there. The SRD mods were much more sympathetic to SRS shenanigans and it was intentional changes in their moderation of the subreddit that turned it into the smug, condescending safe space that it is today.
In the time after the SRS megathread, which really accomplished nothing other than hiding SRS drama, the drama submitted to SRD was virtually indistinguishable from the posts in SRS with it being "bigot says something I don't like, look how dramatic, go downvote them" without there being any actual drama. It got so bad that the mods were forced to implement their surplus drama rules to force people to talk about something else other than the shit reddit said that offended their new subscriber base.
n/a SamWhite 2017-06-22
I don't think it was intentional. I don't think they knew what SRD would end up looking like nor do I think most of them like it, hence their attempts to try and cut back the worst of it. In retrospect of course they absolutely should've let me say cunt as much as I wanted.
n/a menvaren 2017-06-22

A valid argument. But then again, at that time they weren't that far away from the whole syncretic debacle, the sub was pretty sensitive to banhammer happy mods.

First of all, they were in bikinis or some shit, not naked. Second, I've worked in IT for about 19 years, and some of the shit these socially awkward turbo nerds wear, or their appearance in general, is on par with that shirt insofar as it would be wholly unacceptable at most places of business.
I had a boss whose work email address was in the Ashley Madison hack. So he was using his work email, work resources, etc etc to try and fuck married women while he himself was married. I'd say that's a bit more egregious than a shirt. He didn't get fired and it was widely known that his email address was in the dump.

n/a xxmlgprosniperxx 2017-06-22
Surprise surprise in the real world people as pathetic as you exist. People who have to ruin the career of someone who achieved more than you and your sjw buddies will ever achieve in your combined lives.
I actually thought that sjws were against dresscodes. Or maybe only when it's a shirt with sexy girls (and not cringey whales like you).
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
apparently thinking a bowler shirt with half naked chicks on it is retarded for any work function makes me a sjw lmao
n/a xxmlgprosniperxx 2017-06-22
Yes kinda. Why the fuck do you care? Professionality is reflected in other things. It would really be great if we could not give a fuck about dresscodes. I bet you are against not being able to wear a hat indoors right? Is that not disrespectful but that shirt is? What makes it so?
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
i dont really care, i just think its tacky af and he shouldnt be surprised people were offended. if i tried the same shit at my (former) work my clients would get offended real quick, even tho we have no real dress code besides "dont dress like a toddler"
its disrespectful. im not personally offended, but if you do it it shows youre the sort of a person who doesnt care for etiquette, and business is all about etiquette. traditionally its considered disrespectful because you only wear hats outside, so if you wear it indoors it conveys "i dont want to be here so im gonna leave as soon as humanly possible" and people find it rude
i dont think being an autist who pretends that all social conventions are useless is a good thing. theres a reason why those people tend to not have friends.
n/a xxmlgprosniperxx 2017-06-22
Oh now you dont.
who cares?
Good tautology
Lol i never heard this before
Stop projecting.
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
...well figures since no one apparently taught you etiquette
you can REEEEEEEEE about social conventions all you want, sometimes in life you gotta dress up to get what you want, and not following social conventions tends to have consequences.
n/a xxmlgprosniperxx 2017-06-22
Doesn't make it right. Doesn't make you less of a stupid traditionalist.
Free nipple or not?
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
you keep assuming all sorts of shit about me lmao
i live in a country thats way less pressed about female nudity. you dont see topless women in public unless you go to the beach, topless men are rather rare until it gets super hot, and women breastfeed in public without much hassle. its simply not a topic of discussion
americans are oddly uptight about nudity while simultaneously being very casual in their dress code
n/a xxmlgprosniperxx 2017-06-22
You did not answer. Free nipple or not? (It's not the same as free breastfeeding)
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
no unless its a public space where nudity is explicitly allowed (aka pools and beacher)
n/a xxmlgprosniperxx 2017-06-22
You do seem to have a problem with your ethical reasoning, mr tautology.
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22

The women were not naked.
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
bikinis, whatever
n/a nanonan 2017-06-22
They were skimpy, not naked, but agreed it's fairly tasteless. Still, it was just standard fat dork clothing, your imagination is crap. There are plenty of fattie nerdlingers with bad taste in shirts working happily all around the world in all sorts of lame boring jobs.
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
where i live we dont hate ourselves enough to dress like morons
even the brogrammers i know wouldve just dressed in basic business casual because it doesnt take a genius to wear a single coloured shirt
n/a DrinkProfessionally 2017-06-22
jesus lil, brogrammers?
why do u hate man?
n/a Be_Cool_Bro 2017-06-22
It warranted maybe a talking to about what is ok and not ok to wear at work, or at least on national television, and a half hearted Twitter apology. It did not warrant a global piling on undermining his greatest accomplishment in his life because of his shirt, which lead to a tearful and probably only honest national apology followed by job termination. It was a tacky uncle shirt of girls in bikinis, not an actual threat to anyone or anything.
The whole thing was blown way, way out of proportion, and I'd bet my savings the reason any people think otherwise is because of the double standard, knowing there's​ a snowball's chance in hell any woman would be vilified so much over such a tame shirt were she in his place.
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
true
it still puzzles me... WHO looks at that shirt and thinks "yes, THIS is what is appropriate to wear for a national event"
i know STEM people have a big love for horrendously tacky and embarassing clothes, but when you look at the giants they always dress at least business casual, and not like a teen who blew his allowance on hot topic shirts

People who need social awareness told to them.
I've seen worse on Spencer's storefront windows. It's the tamest you can get while still technically being inappropriate. It'd be at home in a PG movie on the fat drunk uncle at the party.
I'm talking about a woman in his place, a scientist who just accomplished a huge feat in their field. I know women are criticized for their tacky attire as well but I can guarantee if a woman wore that shirt after doing what he did, the backlash would have been barely existent​ and the same people who piled on this guy would have defended the woman and called people sexist for focusing on what she's wearing as if it matters. That was my point.
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
i sincerely doubt this. she probably wouldnt get accusations of sexism, but there would surely be backlash
i dont understand people who think clothes dont matter. if you went to a bank and all bank tellers were in fursuits, would you be comfortable doing business with them?
n/a Be_Cool_Bro 2017-06-22
I probably worded that poorly. I mean people who criticized and piled on this man would do a 180 if it was a woman, and call people and articles criticising her shirt sexist for focusing on her clothes rather than her accomplishment, not calling the woman herself sexist.
I'd make sure to read the fine print more carefully on any account or loan I take out. But in all honesty I'd probably go elsewhere, however if they apologized and didn't do it again I'd definitely take a second look. Like I said his attire arguably warranted something, just not nearly as much as what happened.
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
i completely agree
theres way more pressure on women to be aware of societal expectations, especially appearance wise, so i doubt there will be a woman in a public position fucking up quite so colossally... but here's hoping :P
n/a Unicorn_Abattoir 2017-06-22
If the bankers told me "It's a huge day for us, we landed a billion-dollar account even though we're a local credit union, and we're having a festive day where people dress all wacky!" I'd understand.
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
omg
n/a Unicorn_Abattoir 2017-06-22
I still think fursuits are weird and tacky, but the explanation is easy enough. Have you never had a special event at work where normal rules and attitudes were relaxed a bit in celebration?
n/a _lilPoundcake 2017-06-22
not where clients can see
n/a Unicorn_Abattoir 2017-06-22
fair enough

The shirt was from a friend to promote her art.
Guess he was either too much of a doormat to tell her no or he was really delusional enough to believe the shirt is fitting enough.

I generally turn off custom subreddit styles because most subs suck at making it look decent or they have annoying shit like the fucking gigantic triggered pepe here.
So sometimes when I'm lazily browsing and I see a headline that is obviously a drama thread I'll click on it but forget to check whether it's SRD, in which I avoid the comments like the plague and just click through to the linked drama, or whether it's /r/drama.
Several times I've read the post title, assumed it was /r/drama, started reading the comments and it hits me like a thunderbolt. "Who the fuck is upvoting this smug shit, they all need to be bulli... oh.... oh my god... *hurk* oh god... it's all over my computer... I need to go take a shower and scrub my eyes with soap."
n/a PoorLilMarco 2017-06-22
I think the shitstorm over a crappy shirt painting the physicist as an evil white sexist would have done way more damage to STEM's reputation than the shirt itself.
Also /u/UncleMeat11 I know that as an SRD user you're very emotionally sensitive, but normal functioning people don't cry over women not doing science.
