I must be weird, or maybe it's because I used to date someone like Grey, but the impression I got about green is not that they said that because they didn't want to go out anyway, it was that they were glad grey revealed themselves to be uninterested in them even if it was kind of in a sleazeball way, acting like it was just fine to cancel last minute to go be with someone else.

More like green was happy grey pretty much just sent up a red flag and confirmed that they dodged a bullet.

Gray does not understand the relief of cancelled plans.

Assuming this is not made up obviously grey is in the wrong

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 37 points 6 hours ago

Mmm the ragebait tastes so good though I feel righteous and angered

[–] nightlily@leminal.space 13 points 6 hours ago

See this is the variety of shitpost where it’s just a shit post.

[–] zqps@sh.itjust.works 32 points 7 hours ago

Although rude, I appreciate when people tell me outright I'm not a priority for them. So I can adjust my own.

Who's in the wrong here?

Everyone in this thread who is too stupid to realize this is fake rage bait.

[–] polydactyl@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

As is your comment. Rage bait within rage bait. Meta rage bait. Ragebaitception. Ragebaiturducken. I see you.

[–] MadhuGururajan@programming.dev 9 points 7 hours ago

Have you ever considered that other people are smart enough to realize it's probably a hypothetical scenario?

[–] BeardededSquidward@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Grey didn't value Green's time, even stated someone better came along. Green responded with shade in response for this lack of respect, Grey had a crash out because her lesser choice had teeth.

[–] titanicx@lemmy.zip 7 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

Interesting you feel that was the her. There at no genders stated.

[–] KingOfTheCouch@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I mean, for most of the post they tried not to and a single "her" fell out. Something to consider.

I feel it is an interesting question though. I too assigned genders while reading this the first time so is it naturally ingrained in me? Or is it because of the first person POV of text message exchanges like this?

Are women reading this and assuming the other way around? Would a different format (eg changing the bubbles to other side, or paragraph format like in a novel) change who we think is which gender?

[–] BeardededSquidward@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

I try to be impartial, but each misstep online gets hammered on hard because apparently you need to be perfect for the imperfect themselves. Changing now would just be admitting to something i"m not so you cannot win. Shrugs I do my best and try to not let small mistakes turn into mountains.

As well I see other people posting the grey is female initially so that might have influenced me and I didn't see anyone else calling them out.

[–] blarth@thelemmy.club 8 points 6 hours ago

This is an /r/SipsTea male rage bait post, of course the chuds think it’s about them.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 34 points 11 hours ago

I don't get why people are confused about this.

Grey was horrible human being first. Green's reply was a response that horribleness. It's not like green was genuinely waiting to spring that.

...probably.

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 16 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

I mean its 95% fake but it doesnt really make a difference for discussing it as if it was real.

I think it deoends on the relationship between the two and the kind of meeting they had planned. If its a date and grey bailed for an other date, thats really shitty. If it was a casual meetup between friends and grey bailed for a dating opportunity, its not that shitty and green was a bit rude with the follow-up, but again depends on their relationship and how they usually communicate. In any case, the last few messages are completrly overboard.

[–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 6 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago) (2 children)

Maybe they were pals and Green was saying "thank God" in a good-natured "yay, you finally got a date, happy for you bruh" manner but the response went right over Grey's head and led Grey to make a total ass of themself.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Though if that were the case, I'd figure they'd clear that up rather than no reply and posting the screenshot.

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

Oh I didnt even think of that.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Eh, even taking the must charitable view for the canceller, you could also bee charitable to the other one and say that everyone feels relief at cancelled social plans

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Hm, not sure I understand what you mean? I dont think its common to feel relieved about cancelled plans. If you dont want to meet, why make plans in the first place?

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 hour ago

Didn't mean to universalize but this is a common reaction. Part of my more charitable read
