Right, so you show them who's the bigger person by being just as intolerant to them as they were to you...

Well, that's why I asked for clarification, didn't I.

I’m glad I checked which group I was in before deciding to write a derisive comment.

So they fired him without even giving him a warning? Sounds kinda excessive if you ask me. Like, sure, stuff like that doesn’t belong in the company chat app but losing your job over it seems a bit harsh.

Haha, I see. Thanks for explaining.

Adorable, but could probably use some doors. The seats look comfy though.

Goes well with this (well, at least visually):

Okay, well don't share them with people who you KNOW aren't really your friends?

I mean, it's fine to bring them up with people who you don't consider your friends YET (because otherwise, you may never know their opinion and miss out on potential friendships), but if you get shot down or made fun of and it's clear that there is no interest, just switch topics and look for someone else to be friends with.

Okay, I understand that, and that’s fine, everyone has people like that in their lives at some point.

But if you KNOW they aren’t really your friends, why would you complain that they don’t act like they are?

You can just ignore the first part of my advice (about not spending time with them) because it doesn’t apply to this situation, but you should probably still try and find people who you can actually be friends with based on your hobbies and interests.

Well, people you HAVE to see for professional reasons aren't your friends, and you shouldn't really care what they think about your hobbies or interests.

So does your username.
