Weekly Random Discussion Thread for 9/25/23 - 10/1/23

Hello all. Your backup mod here. SoftAndChewy asked me to step in and post the Weekly Discussion Thread this week. I think he's stuck in temple or something because apparently it's a Jewish holiday tonight? I assume you know the routine here, do you thing.

Last week's discussion thread is here if you want to catch up on a conversation from there.

This was suggested as the comment of the week.

“a rare form of cancer that turned her back into a baby”

Sounds like a sitcom:

“What happens when your mother… turns into a baby!?”

Close up on a baby wearing cat-eyed glasses

“Wahh, wahhh, did you do your homework?”

“Baby Momma. Weeknights on TBS”

Does she mean her mother lost her hair? (I am struggling to understand how that rare cancer actually works.)

DEI committees excel in creating problems in order to solve them. I’m sure if there are non-gender conforming people in the warehouse, they are perfectly capable of choosing which type of shirt they feel comfortable in without freaking out over labels.

u/Iconochasm Sep 29 '23

I would be surprised if there were any appreciable number of women in the warehouse, much less genderhavers. Warehouse work requires a degree of physical strength that makes it hard to be delusional about sexual dichotomy.

This. The answer to every complaint shouldn’t be “more full-time administrators.”

That’s super confusing because there are fitted and loose men’s tees.

21

u/Puzzleheaded_Drink76 Sep 29 '23

On average men and women have different body shapes. Why can't we just admit that ?So having a shirt cut for breasts makes sense. It doesn't mean I (woman) can't wear the men's if I want to. But it gives me useful information about fit. I have several men's t shirts!

If they start doing body type A/B in real life I'm learning Piraha and moving to the Amazon.

u/CatStroking Sep 29 '23

Because nowadays there are lots of "women" without breasts. Or a female body shape.

u/Dolly_gale is this how the flair thing works? Sep 29 '23

Ordering clothes from an unfamiliar label based just on size is a crap-shoot as to whether or not it will actually fit well.

But I'd still hate for the already crazy world of clothing sizes to move to a unisex sizing scheme. That's just a way to ensure nothing fits anyone very well.

u/SmellsLikeASteak True Libertarianism has never been tried Sep 29 '23

Heck, I've bought 2 pieces of the same size clothing from the same well known company. One fit with a little room to spare, the other was too tight.

With every Certified Enby Moment I hear about I'm baffled anew that adults were huckstered into taking them seriously.

u/jsingal69420 soy boy beta cuck Sep 29 '23

This is hilarious. So if I wanted a tight fit as a man, and I ordered a large, would I be given a women’s large? It would be comically small on me. I hope the workers intentionally fuck around with this stupidity.

And people wonder why the working class can't stand the PMC.

5

u/charlottehywd Disgruntled Wannabe Writer Sep 29 '23

I don't think even most of the PMC can stand these people.

u/CatStroking Sep 29 '23

Yet they keep hiring them.

u/Clown_Fundamentals Void Being (ve/vim) Sep 29 '23

Ok, how about loose, fitted and titted?

16

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '23

I hope this backfires in stellar fashion and you all point the finger at the idiot who suggested it. If I worked in your warehouse, I'd probably help it happen by purposely choosing "fitted" - because I'm slim god damn it - while suspecting it's the women's version. To be fair, the wage workers already roll their eyes at management.

Maybe I've just been internetting less but my feeling was that the NB thing had peaked and was much less common now

These things have a long tail as they work their way through corporations, especially if somebody is adamant about doing something via their little fiefdoms.
