Itella Posti not renewing my contract

[Upphew]

And the OP is clearly not a person who could draw the correct conclusions out of reading his contract and the relevant laws and collective agreement without help from an expert.

Not saying that this op, but in general, people tend to ask first and research later. And put names on papers that they don't read or understand.

The problem is theres these stupid idiots online, on the street, in a work place, in school, everywhere. Yes, many Finns and foreigners. And if nobody tells them they are stupid, they will continue being stupid and one day something happens, maybe an accident or something worse they will get killed. Like its totally stupid to go happyslapping hairy bikers. And the poor kid dies, just because you didn't tell him it was stupid.

I'm sure that small obstacle could easily be circumvented simply by pointing out that something is "dangerous"? Most people react better to that method than they do to being called an "idiot".

[Pursuivant]

I don't know, does the idiot react better to

a) reading a sign saying "lions are dangerous"
b) someone yelling "don't put your hand there, idiot"
c) RRROOOARRRRRR...chew...gulp

Then again, c) makes the lion happy though, and the character in b) having the time to get the camera ready...

[Upphew]

c)


Although that sword should say chop rather than chew...

This should be new Finnish coat of arms to promote Finnish concept of feminism, and after an embarrassing defeat of Finnish lions in front of home crowd by Russians.

I definitively think it is NEVER OK TO CALL SOMEBODY STUPID!!!
.
As Bambis mother said: if you have nothing nice to say, you'd better not say anything.

Now avoiding the truth if it can hurt is the new "political correctness"?

Stupidity is often not the result of low IQ but of emotional or instinct behavior instead of logical thinking.
Warning against it makes sense.

They say truth has many shades, so naturally there are also many readings from New Scientist.

Why then do they expect to be treated as resourceful and intelligent?

Do they? I thought they merely expected some human decency, and respect for another living creature.

You just get some sick satisfaction of playing the role of a meanie.

Yes, a big blue one. You get some sick satisfaction of "being nice" when thats just a disguise to the fact you know nothing. Ever aspired for a political career?

Haha, that was a good one, me and politics I have a bit of a problem with often being a bit too honest, but I am sure I could create a few big headlines with my big mouth (And pretty soon after I would probably have to flee the country). But thank you any way for your profound analysis. I'll take it with me the next time I'm expected to take part in an aptitude test.

I cuddle the neighbors cat, but I still don't discuss philosophy with it. Neither I discuss philosophy with the neighbor, as its a chav.

So does Pursuivant. He just doesn't sugarcoat it.
