I'm 43. I say I'm old, but I don't actually believe I'm old.
Don't convince me otherwise.
That whole comment is creepy as fuck, but using the word "females" especially sets off my ickometer.
Because old people like me view written correspondence as less disposable. When jotting down personal notes, we don't worry about spelling or punctuation, but writing a letter? You double check that shit so there isn't documentation of how illiterate you are!
Youth grew up with texting. It's designed to be fast and efficient. Sup? OMG 👍 They just need to get the point across, it's not a grammar competition.
Neither is right or wrong, it's just a generational difference.
So far so good, only got a few hours in, and I was VERY frustrated with the game crashing. I've heard other people with the Launch version of the XBox Series X are having similar issues. I was averaging a crash every 30 min or so. Thanks to autosave, I rarely lost much progress, and the game boots quickly, so it wasn't too much down time, but it's annoying as hell.
It's close enough to Skyrim, that I felt like I knew exactly what to do, but it's different enough, that most of the time, I don't actually know what to do. I'm still learning the differences between the leveling and equipment systems and which enemies need to be avoided.
Just this morning: "oh, there's a skeleton outside of town, I'll just pick him off with my bow." 60 seconds later: Kai is dead, there's a rain of arrows falling on me, and the skelemans heal faster than I can kill them. Who knew?
Admit it, you've just been getting down to the DK Rap.
Good eye. You might be on to something here.
It doesn't happen everywhere, but it can happen anywhere.
Usually it's one or two people that set the tone and everyone else pretty much conforms, like you did. The next person to join your team, is probably going to go through the same thing.
I could make some guesses, but I don't know how to fix it.
You'd probably be better off finding a new position and hoping it's better, or until then, pray for major personnel changes.
Typically, automatically. But, you might be an outlier.
TL;DR for Americans: American citizens are the biggest idiots on the fucking planet.
As an American, I can confirm this.
Because no matter what you come up with, it's going to be at least a little bit racist.
I've settled for a mediocre version of myself. Much better ROI.
Or .. If you can't understand it unless they spell it out for you, there may be a deficiency on your end.
