What makes you think I'm okay with it?
By the way, are you taking a shot at people afflicted with Asperger's syndrome by referring to me as an "Aspie"? It seems rather hypocritical of you if that's true.
- sangnoir 10y agoThe way you worded your comment sounds like you were justifying the CEOs behaviour. As for 'Aspie', I wasn't calling you that, but giving an example of a slur (most of HN would be more familiar with) that a hypothetical CEO might drop in an interview. Perhaps my outrage scale is calibrated differently, but why is it to you 'Aspie' is taking a shot, and 'Nigger' is only 'probing'?
- tux1968 10y agoDidn't mean to justify the CEO's behavior, rather try to understand it in the sense of giving someone the benefit of the doubt. What's the best light you could think of other than him just being a straight out racist. I did say I thought it was inappropriate and "twisted". The reason I thought "aspie" was a shot rather than a probe is because you didn't offer me a job afterward ;-)
