I hope this doesn't constitute "jump[ing] down your throat," but: try going to an actual pride parade and enjoying yourself rather than judging it by the HR-approved G-rated "celebration" in your workplace.
- local_crmdgeon 3y agoOh, that's what I'm trying to say. Pride parades are a ton of fun, so are gay bars during pride. Go to a rave during Pride, it's awesome. I just don't like the Corporate Memphis enforcement. Feels like state religion.
- clipsy 3y agoFair enough, that sounds unpleasant! I've worked at companies that routinely get accused of being "woke" and Pride rarely entails more than maybe getting some rainbow-washed swag; if your company's dragging you into the breakroom for a store-bought cake with rainbow sprinkles and a lecture on how not to get the company sued, you have my sincere condolences :) Personally, the only corporate holiday celebration I want is a day off.
- local_crmdgeon 3y agoEXACTLY! THANK YOU
