(Twitch chat reads: "Hi! what color is your thong today?")
(The subtitles read:)
*deepest sigh*
"What color is your thong today?"
Respect women- you just- absolute infant of a human.
So what did you expect? Did you expect that I was gonna be like:
"Blue, oh my god, why did you want to find out? *Indiscriminant giggles* Here's my number!"
Like what do you think people are gonna do, my dude? How do you see this going any other way than how it went?
(Twitch chat reads
"you can't take a joke lmao
What color is is?")
"You can't take a joke"? What do you think a joke IS? Can you imagine- John Mulaney getting up on a stage and pointing at a woman in the audience, and going like: "what color is your thong?" And then she goes "excuse me, that's fucked up." And he goes "you can't take a joke!"
You haven't gotten to the joke yet. We got to the part where you were being a dick. You haven't told the joke yet.
Google "Mike Birbiglia: I'm Joking". He has a really great, uh, bit where he talks about how jokes have been ruined by people like yourself who say shitty, misogynistic things and then when someone calls them out on it they say "I'm joking."
Because then people say: "oh, we just can't joke around in the workplace anymore."
No. The REST of us can still joke. You can't because you were never joking in the first place. You were just being a misogynistic sexist piece of shit.
AND THEN you don't like hearing that, because someone's holding a mirror up to you and it makes you uncomfortable. Because you know you, and you know the parts of you that are good. So in your heart, you have to come up with a narrative that makes you feel better about the fact that somebody's asking you to confront the parts about yourself that you hate the most.
And me telling you: "you're not joking" is me asking for you to hold yourself accountable, to be a better person, because you're not right now.
And I'm sorry if that's hard for you to hear, 'cause you think you're the hero of your own story, but you are a footnote in everyone else's.
*anxiety motorboat*
I need a beer.
