when someone tacks their opinion on to your personal post instead of making their own
When someone criticizes you for tacking on the opinion to a post rather than making their own post because the formula in which the opinion was said would be much better done by adding it to the post than making an original post.
I don’t want to live any longer in this world of “the customer is always right.” This is a world that shows the aggressive, the bull-headed, the cruel that they have full license to behave like beasts to get what they want. Half the time, they’re even rewarded for it; “here, ma'am, so sorry for the trouble, please accept this gift card–no charge.”
I want to live in a world that punishes these childish adults as you punish a toddler throwing a tantrum. No candy for you, Jimmy; you’re going home to bed if you can’t mind yourself in public.
Throw a hissy fit because your cashier isn’t moving as fast as you’d like? Find yourself gently escorted from the store until you can show some basic compassion and patience.
Hurl a pen across the table at your signing agent? You’ve just forfeited your right to refinance your mortgage this week. Try again when your temper is managed.
Scream obscenities at the Taco Bell rep because you know it’ll earn you a free soft shell? Here’s your money back; please feel free to play again when you’ve realized fast food is not worth more than the price of human dignity.
I am so sick of accepting–and, in truth, rewarding–these callous behavior patterns in customer service industries. The fact is, the customer is not always right. The customer is often just testing to see what he can get away with. Stop pandering to spoiled children, and show your employees they have more value than their red polo, or how much abuse they can withstand in a 40-hour week.

There’s a post floating around about “my friend who spoke to Toby” saying how the term “genocide run” was coined by an LPer that was “making bad Holocaust jokes”, and that Toby Fox personally discouraged use of the term.
The truth of it being, a genocide run LP that got mass views early on in the fandom had named their Chara “Hitler”. That in itself is in bad taste, and I never watched the LP in question to confirm or deny if there was more to it, but from what I’ve heard that was the only thing.
Toby Fox himself used the term genocide run, predating this LP.
“Genocide run” is not a reference to the Holocaust. The Holocaust was not the only genocide in human history and the word “genocide” is not exclusively referencing it or any kind of a synonymous term for the event.
Genocide means a mass killing, which is exactly what you do in that run. This is a word we have in our language to describe a thing. By censoring this you are taking away from our lexicon, as well as promoting this misconception that it is an offensive term.
You think these words hurt but really you are giving them the power to hurt.
^ yeah watch out, I’ve been misinformed of this too and unfortunately was corrected many times and sought to do so too without knowing that it is a fake thing/not real, do correct the people who have censored Genocide run kindly as they may have been misinformed.
Uhhh there’s another post that has 7k notes and still ongoing that is long explaining about how Toby said its not ok to use this, please do not believe that post or spread that, or any other post saying it’s not okay to call it Genocide.
“I don’t like Jasper because she was rude to Garnet”, “I don’t like Peridot because she was classist to Pearl”, “I don’t like Pearl because she was rude to Greg”, “I don’t like Lapis because she forced Jasper into fusing”, etc. Seriously, why do people hate on characters’ realistic flaws and wrong doings (especially in the cases on villains, who are SUPPOSED to be the bad guys) so much? Can they not appreciate a character for their character? Why do you have to judge them like real people?
