it’s so difficult not being able to use milennial humor in a corporate setting. like i made a mistake today and i wanted to tell my supervisor it’s because i suffer from Dumb Bitch Disease, but do you think that would fly?? fuck no. i gotta say shit like, “sorry for the misunderstanding!” i can’t wait till the workforce is made up entirely of millennials and i can say “sorry i drank idiot juice for breakfast this morning” and my coworkers will be like “oh worm.”
Working in an office with mostly fellow millennials is still hit-or-miss dependent on meme literacy, and it’s so unnecessarily stressful to have to make that split-second decision of what dialect I can use with each person.
That’s what I was thinking, like I didn’t grow up around people my age too much what with being homeschooled so my references are from stuff from the 80s, like the Muppet Show or Mel Brooks movies or Bob and Doug McKenzie OR going even more obscure from British sitcoms from the 70s. So while I kinda know memes I’m more likely to use stuff like “oh geez eh that’s a bummer,” with people I’m comfortable with lol.
Also Jeeves and Wooster but I think even LESS people would understand that.
Yep. That was by me. I fucking hate it. It’s the worst thing I’ve ever posted on Tumblr.
BUT I AM HERE TO RECTIFY THE BULLSHIT ONCE AND FOR ALL:
This is Peaceful Baljeet. He brings you prosperity and joy. He has turned a new leaf on life, abandoning his dark past of giving unsuspecting teenagers test anxiety, and instead gives them hope for the future. Seeing Peaceful Baljeet on your dash guarantees that you will never be cursed by that fucking stupid finals post ever again, no matter how many times you see it for the rest of your lifetime. This end to suffering cannot be undone through any means.
Spread the good word by reblogging this post or making your own Peaceful Baljeet post with the same wholesome message above. I don’t give a fuck about notes at this point; I just want this cure to spread further than the virus that is the original post.
ERADICATE BALJEET, THE FAILED TEST FOR GOOD BY BLESSING THE TIMELINES OF ALL OF YOUR CHERISHED FRIENDS!
