But “made up” doesn’t imply unbelievable, just not real in the specific instance. While based on very believable interaction, it’s pretty likely this specific interaction is indeed made up
Mostly, it just bothers me that the r/thathappened crowd spend so much time trying to get the upper hand on instagram influencers, and so little time actually engaging with the content.
You can make a point about how such and such behavior is just fine, actually, and it glances off their head like it were steel armor because the meme isn’t real.
idk dismantling the pointless notion of boys toys vs girls toys bit by bit at no cost to the interlocutor other than a slight annoyance sounds pretty based
Why be a misandrist when you clearly know the boy isn’t being given a choice because people like you and the mom don’t give a damn about what boys as long as the toy ‘matches’ the kid’s penis?
They’re not being difficult, the customer is pushing a sexist agenda rather than select one of the choices named. It’s perfectly reasonable for boys to want a Barbie-themed rock band figurine, or a girl to want a van for her Barbie rock band to pretend to drive to their next gig.
Why be difficult though when you clearly know what the customer is asking for
Why not pick one of the answers provided when you’re clearly in a made up scenario?
Because I’ve got infinity time to argue when I’m in a made-up scenario.
Okay, this does bother me because embellished? Sure. Made up? This is entirely believable.
Not to mention, this specific meme is ooold as fuuuck.
[briefly checks if this scenario is real]
To clarify: By believable, I don’t mean real. I mean not worthy of suspicion.

It can. You’ve gotta read between people’s words.

You’re right. I don’t think I’m like that, but I do need to be a little more self critical about chiming in with a that happened response.
And then rocks fell and everyone was albert einstein.
Why be difficult , though, when you clearly know what the employee is asking?
If it was the customer telling the story I’d be asking just that

I’m not sure how what I said is either of those things

Because if someone says something sexist/racist/stupid, don’t let them get away with it.
Ma’am, we have hotwheels or barbie, we can move this along as soon as you tell us which one you’d like.
Sir, I demand to receive the toy that contains the XY chromosome and if you don’t provide it immediately I will be speaking with your manager.

Yeah I’m calling you out for being a creep.
Lmao

They definitely are being difficult, even if you think the cause is just. Everyone knows what she wanted to get
Yep. She wanted to get her shitty take validated.
So give her a Barbie and move on
Because you have values and the customer is trying to get you to affirm their being shitty to a kid.
