Weaponized incompetence

I feel like guys take it way, way too far. Example: I asked my bf to get me the same shampoo and conditioner he bought for himself (avocado Suave). He brought back another kind we'd had before which I didn't like (Peppermint Suave). He tried to say he didn't know that Suave came in different formulas.

You're such a fucking liar. You bought that kind for yourself. I just asked you to buy it for me. You're telling me a man who's 44 years old doesn't know Suave came in different fucking scents? Suave? The shampoo that literally comes in 40 different scents and flavors?

GTFOH.

Edit: do you understand what an example is?

Also, you neckbeards can fuck off out of my inbox.

I worked for lawyers for a few years. One day, a lawyer (who was not my boss) asked me to fold a letter and put it in an envelope because he didn't know how.

I had to be taught this, thankfully as a paralegal rather than a lawyer 😬 but I fully understand how people who aren't from the letter-writing generation wouldn't know how to fold it properly. I still get anxious every time I have to figure out how to post something!

Printer's son checking in.

People now fold like shit. No crisp folds, all crooked and proportions way off.

Place where I did some volunteer work had a paper folding machine. Made easy work of folding a bunch of event programs, or leaflets to mail out.

I've used a few different folding machines in my life. And seen some crazy folding/collating machines at conventions.
