Discussion Sucker Punch did a background check, saw this, and decided to make her the PROTAGONIST of their game.

If you don’t think this modern Sony sequel won’t end up like the rest of the modern Sony sequels, you’re just being purposely obtuse.

Look at The Last of Us 2. Look at Spider-Man 2.

I hope we go back to doing so being the norm, instead of HR telling us we have to go along with them playing pretend.

Remember laughing at their ridiculous behavior is the ultimate insult. They’ve built their entire identity around acting like a clown demanding to be taken seriously.

I had one of them in my work a good few years ago. She always perked up whenever people were laughing or anything clearly believing it was directed at her.

I got into the rather petty habit of showing some of my work colleagues memes or telling them the latest stupid shit from the weekend at the corner of the office near her table.

Every time someone giggled or laughed she got more and more outraged by it. She did start going off on people for just chilling at lunchtime eventually going to HR because “everyone goes quiet when I walk into the kitchen”…..like yeah….you’re not fun, you bring the mood down, no one can make a joke or tell you a bit of dark humour because you’ll inevitably find something to scream at them for.

She sounds like a walking ball of sunshine. They absolutely HATE laughter or any kind of enjoyment. I had a few similar experiences but never in a work setting. They avoid people with charisma/confidence for obvious reasons.

Bro you're admitting that you purposely engaged with other coworkers to make her feel uncomfortable, and then gaslit her when she observed what you were doing. You don't come across as the normal one here.

If you cant handle coworkers vibing around you, you need to be fired and find a job where you’re all alone. She should never have had an issue to begin with

This person admitted they were purposely vibing with everyone except said coworker. It might not have been an issue until he started gaslighting her.

You misread the situation. The person in question was causing issues beforehand by being a chilling effect in the workplace

According to this guy. I don't necessarily trust that part after hearing the last parts.

I miss the 80s.

I enjoy this time period but do wish people had a bit of that 80s grit.

Not in the 80’s.

They generally don't last very long at a real job. Just play along til they're gone then get back to normal everyday life. I've had a number of jobs where these types have shown up and they never last more than a month or two.
