It's basically just Miss Manners and people love that poo poo because it allows them to feel morally superior to other people.

in case you wondered what the answer was

You’ve urged her to mend her ways, to no avail. At this point, you could tell her that you’ll report her hustle if she doesn’t give it up — but you’d also be justified in reporting her without giving her further notice.

this must absolutely be the case. except miss manners is actually not bad and fulfills a social function.

it actually blows my mind when I meet people who think the rules per se matter, rather than the reasons for the rules

ie: if the rule exists for a good reason then sure, care about it, but caring about the rule simply because it’s the rule .. I can’t sympathise with that mindset whatsoever


in fact.. I hate those people. rule fascists can get hosed

I help people where I can. sometimes I bend the rules to do so. I follow the rules where I have to like fill in the controlled drug register (and every other drat thing) but very little of it are things I’d say I care about.

But giving a poo poo about the rules??? i’d rather break them and have a party

working is the worst . I hate every moment of it and it makes me so depressed
I used to think if I worked a job I gave a poo poo about that’s help but apparently not.

i’ve been a diabetic for 20 years already. some people are younger than that! my blood pressure resembles the bpm of happy hardcore. i’ll never get to retire

it is actually fairly shocking how many people respond to that with "oh so you're just supposed to be free to decide which laws you'll follow and which you wont?!?" and it's just sort of amazing how many people dont have any kind of internal moral compass at all.

absolutely. I never get poo poo done in the weekend but if I have a three day weekend life starts to have colour again

honestly think my ideal job wouldn’t be one job. pharmacist a day or two. consult at the pharmacy software company. busk for a pittance. live at my gfs so life was cheaper. sit in one of those shared office spaces and find desperate people to make websites for and call myself “cool website” or something snazzy.

unfortunately I suppose a lot of laws exist because of the minority that don’t have that compass
