When you think about it, the internet is a democracy. Whether you're the President, an award-winning scientist, or just a spiteful troll, you can create a Twitter account and go from one thread to another, explaining to other users why they're stupid. However, if you're actually doing it, that's precisely what you need to keep in mind. It's just a matter of time before you run into someone who can call out your BS. And when that happens, you're going to end up on the subreddit r/DontYouKnowWhoIam. Like the name suggests, this online community is dedicated to those spicy moments when people were oblivious to who they were talking to, and has collected quite a lot of them since its inception in 2015. Here are some of the best ones.

A friend's sister is a surgeon and at a conference some male twat said "do you have coffee" and she said "yes thank you" and she got a real funny look. That's when she realized that this twat thought she was a server. She's also a very tall slim blonde so men tend to think she has no brain. Maaaaaan

Friend of ours had a similar experience. Her name is Michele but goes by Mitch and she used to be some kind of manager at at oilfield. Guy comes in and asks her to make him coffee as he has a meeting with Mitch. She calmly makes him coffee, then sits down at her desk and says, Hi, I'm Mitch. Always love hearing that story.

Why does this stuff still happen? In the U.S., at least, this crappy idea that any woman in an office should get the coffee for you should have gone away by the mid 1980s.

    Even though there's a line between self- and over-confidence, trusting in your judgment can help you become successful in life.

    Both verbal and nonverbal communication can be extremely effective at garnering positive attention and influence in groups. According to one hypothesis (the presumption of calibration hypothesis), people generally assume others have the self-knowledge to know how confident they should be, and we also assume they will truthfully communicate this confidence to us (the so-called truth bias), unless extenuating circumstances suggest otherwise.

    So whenever we see confidence, we tend to find it compelling, and we expect it to be justified.

He was asked to show several forms of ID even after he showed them his school employee ID on a lanyard around his neck. He finally said I guess you won't be asking me this when I'm at the podium!

    Interestingly, some research has reported that being overconfident while participating in a group activity did not damage the person’s reputation — individuals who trusted their task performance (but were later revealed to be worse at the task than they had claimed) did not suffer a severe drop in their social status in the group relative to someone who had been well-calibrated.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    The researchers concluded that "the status benefits of overconfidence outweighed any possible status costs."

    So extreme cases aside, being featured on r/DontYouKnowWhoIam might not be the worst thing that can happen to you.

I can see having them edit them, sure, they should know the legalistic restrictions and so forth. But instead of the person who knows what the job requires, having HR write ignorant, crazy job posts from scratch and then wonder why you can't get anyone to apply? Is everyone at these companies completely without any reasoning abilities whatsoever?

    Wow! Always apply for jobs you want no matter what the requirements say. The people who write the job ads usually have no idea what that position actually does. I got turned down for a small raise by my supervisor, he said the owner said no. My stubborn ass went to the owner with a mini resume of my duties and experience to ask why. The owner was never actually approached and my supervisor apologized and gave me the tiny raise. Both men had a better respect for me after. The other lady in the department who was told I was basically her equal, not so much.

    HR being responsible for the hiring process of things they don't understand has led to so many companies not being able to find talent. I'm a drafter and once had an interview where I was asked "how close" I can tolerance. Did not want that job after that question. That same company required 5 years of experience SPECIFICALLY with AutoCAD 2018 - posted the job in 2019.

Sure it's better if they apologize but he at least didn't try to fight it and make it worse. Maybe he apologized later. We just know what she's saying.

    Nice 👍 Once in college we had a project about mental health. We were a group of 5 people. Since we all lived far from each other we decided to do the project online. Using Skype and emails. One of the group members, the lazy one , decided to copy and paste something she found online. The rest of the group were unaware about that. On the due date our professor seemed pretty displeased with us. She said “ I believe you guys copied this essay from somewhere online. “ We denied the plagiarism. Then our professor reaches out into her bag and gets her paper, she even made sure she highlighted all the bits that were copied. It was our professor’s work. Our lazy friend copied our professor’s paper 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

    Remember when we first saw Rubio on TV, making a statement about something? Sweating bullets and so dry mouthed all he could do was constantly—-and awkwardly—-pause to drink from the water bottle they gave him. Body language indicating extreme nervousness. Sometimes it’s just stage fright. But in his case, it’s more like the kind of nervousness from knowing that what you’re about to say is an enormous pile of lies and bullshit, but you already met Beelzebub at the crossroads and sold him your soul, so you’re committed now, and can’t back out. Yeah, nothing’s changed, except he’s probably now on hyperhydrosis meds to dry up the flop sweat.

    Especially US americans often think that all north african, middle eastern and south european/american people aren't white. Whilst in reality most are. The thing is, that racism against a different colour is easy to understand for them, but racism that's against another culture of the same colour isn't. It's easy to say "all whites are bad and all PoC a victims" but that's simply pathetically wrong.

The whole shop was looking at her, i said its fine you take the position i can wait, she got more angry and demanded to see the manager and that she would get me kicked out of the Store, i said go ahead lets see what he says. The young till girl called for the manager who came out of his office and tried to reason with the irate customer that i wasnt disputing anything even though she had clearly pushed in. Her reply was, i want her removed from the Store as she makes me uncomfortable saying i was accusing her. The manager turned to me and said loudly.... Mum see what you've done and we both burst out laughing!! The womans face was worth the hassle! even the young till girl laughed.

    Unthinkable in most of Europe. If you act like that towards an employee, you'll get asked to stop nicely once. Then it's not so nice and it can get you thrown out rather easily. Or even banned. You can't just be impolite to a customer for nothing. But you don't have to take unreasonable sh!t from them either.

    I worked for a screw machine manufacturer for 23 years. I would constantly get calls from men with questions. When I tried to help they would want to someone technical. Each and every time I would say "Just give me a shot" Almost every time the question was so basic (what is an outside diameter?") I had all I could do not to laugh. I'd answer their questions and then quite often get "Oh, I guess you do know".

    3 years ago Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    So... the minimum wage was increased when Republicans ran the House and Senate, but not when Democrats ran both houses and the presidency? OK, this is one of the silliest cases of not knowing who you're talking to, but still... maybe Reich's choice to simply become a hyper-partisan social-media rager wasn't such a great idea? (Don't misunderstand me, folks: the Republicans are far more likely to oppose raising the minimum wage. I support doing so. But I get frustrated that the Democrats seem to like having it around as a campaign issue than actually doing something about it.)

    A minimum wage that is so low that people on it still qualify for social assistance from the government amounts to the government subsidizing businesses to pay unreasonably low wages. That's a policy which is so insane that no-one in their right mind would ever vote for directly.

    There are people in my country who believe that Ivermektin (actualy horse pill to get them rid of tapeworms) can cure covid. Eventhougt, there is no study to prove that, some people eat this, they overdose on it and end up in hospital with covid and also kidney failure...

    It's amazing that people are afraid of a vaccine but will pump their bodies with any animal de-wormer or bleach instead.

    I work.in an ICU. 98% of our COVID patients for the last 6 months have been unvaccinated, and many of them have died. The vaccinated don't even come to us unless they gave severe comorbidities (cancer being the most common), while the unvaccjnated get desperately ill or die. It's that simple.

    For the curious: That drug is an antihistamine. So unless that's the worst hay fever ever, no, it won't do a da*n thing for the patient with that chest. Jesus wept...

    The scary thought is , if people can be convinced to strongly oppose vaccines in-spite of the overwhelming evidence and research, these people can be made to believe any lies that suits those that perpetuate them :(

    It’s the law of short words, repetitive phrases that sound good, and telling people it’s not their fault- it’s other people, they don’t have to take responsibility for their own actions or lack of action. Do it often enough, people vote against their own best interest, they don’t vaccinate to save against major diseases, but they’ll rush to the hospital to demand to be saved when Covid hits them because then it’s real and they want to live. If you don’t want the vaccine, save the bed for those who need it- cancer patients, heart attacks, dying children, and others. Yes, I’m tired of their c**p after them trying to remove my mask and wishing me to die.

    Literature teacher brings out an anthology of poetry and passes it around telling us to pick a poem and analyze it. I'm leafing through and see a familiar name; my mom's maiden name. Turns out the inclusion in the book was first prize in a poetry contest she entered as a high schooler. So, I did exactly what anyone would do in this situation; asked her what the poem meant, wrote it up and turned it in. Teacher handed it back: it had a huge red "D" on it and notes as to the "real" meaning behind the poem. When mom saw it, she came to school the next day DURING CLASS and told the teacher SHE had written it and what I turned in was exactly what the poem meant. I just sat there looking at the teacher with a smirk on my face

    Wrote a poem in 8th grade. Pretty advanced poem for a 14 year old, about all the emotions I felt while listening to a particular piece of classical music. But I was a rather deep-thinking child, and the words just flowed out of me as I listened to the piece. My English teacher, familiar with my work over the semester, submitted it to the school district, for them to put in a yearly book of student achievements. They returned it, saying I didn’t write it. They said I cheated, and that some adult wrote it for me. My English teacher tried to stand up for my work, but they decided to publish one of my classmates’ poems instead. It was about the Ice Cream Man.

    A similar thing happened to me in 8th grade. I wrote a short story and my teacher accused me of having my parent write it. My parent was my 89 year old great grandmother who only had a second grade education and was barely literate. I was so upset and angry because I worked so hard and failed. This teacher had met my great grandmother several times and knew I was in the gifted program and advanced literature classes and still accused me of plagiarism. Some people shouldn't be educators.

    Teacher in India slapped the crap out of me for several minutes, made me do 100 situps as punishment for not submitting my notebook for monthly checking and for lying to her about submitting it already. Next morning, she opened her overhead cupboard and my notebook fell on her head. She took it, read my name, smirked, handed me the notebook and went back to teaching. Can’t make this shyt up! I have earned a forever right to call her a fat-biyach! I hate you “kavita” (her name means poem in eng).

    I had an English teacher in 10th grade accuse me of plagiarizing a writing assignment I did which was stupid because where would I even get a prewritten assignment on writing a letter to the mistress of the main character in A Good Earth? She called me up in front of the entire class and demanded I tell her who I copied the letter from because it was beyond my "reading level". I said I wrote it and then she tried to insinuate that it was impossible because I'm first generation Chinese-American and no one in my family could have taught me. When a friend asked me what that was about, I said she accused me of plagiarizing and this bitch of a teacher made a class announcement alluding to me misunderstanding her intentions.

    My mother is Chinese and my 8th grade Advanced English teacher kept saying that I should be in Advanced MATH instead of English. When I told her I was in both (as were many of my classmates) she tried her best to fail me out. This was just outside Philadelphia in the early 1980s.

    As a college freshman, I was short on time, so turned in some drawings I had done as a senior in HS. The prof accused me of stealing them from someone else, as I was obviously a talentless hack. I had already gotten A's on them from my HS teacher.

    I was the Program Director of a successful child care center and had a really nice office. One day, we had the Fire Department visit the kids on Friends in Our Community Day, complete with the firefighters in their gear and, of course, their truck. While the classes were outside exploring the truck, the HR Director came over for a visit. I’m brown-skinned and was pretty young, and she was Caucasian, in her early sixties. While we were chatting in my office, standing at the window watching the kids, a firefighter came in and joined the chat, sat in the “executive” chair, and then asked “Mary” if it was ok if he sat in her chair as he spun around in it. Mary looked at him, looked at me, and laughed. I very casually told him that this was my office, but, sure, he could sit in my chair. He jumped up, apologized profusely, hugged me and turned redder than his fire truck. He said he would never judge a book by its cover again. 😉

    My ex boyfriend was a police officer. We were sitting in a cafe when a guy came in, trying to hawk counterfeit dvds. My ex told him to "take that s**t out of here." Guy got in his face and said "What are you going to do? Call the police?" One warrant card later and he picked up his s**t and left. Amazing what happens when you call their bluff.

    Had the opposite once - man driving cut my husband up in an illegal move on the road and then tried to claim he knew it was legal because he was a police officer. Nope! Didn't fit anything in the highway code at all. Many requests for proof and his number so that my husband could take it further did not get anywhere. He might well have been an officer but he was certainly not in the right.

    I feel that if people are prepared to gamble with their health, let them. Did the store specify that they wanted masks worn? Otherwise, I don't think it's fair for someone to use their job/position to bully someone into what should be a personal choice.

    Yeah, cops unless under direct order can't force you to wear a mask either so "mall cops" - cops who are employed or security employed for specific stores or functions for stores - would really be the ones allowed to even try to implement these things. Wearing a mask isn't in the law, therefore it is not in their rights not job description to locally enforce and mandate. Too bad there are unfortunately police out there on a power trip.

    The health and safety of the public isn't left or right wing. It just IS. Masks have been proven to help. It's ok if you don't want to wear one, but it's also ok if others do.

    Exactly! A sauna doesn't have to be uncomfortable to be 'good for you' at all! It should be something relaxing, that's all. It might be good for your hearth health, but there's not that much evidence that saunas have health benefits. Still, getting uncomfortably hot is not good.

    It's this stupid "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger". No, what doesn't kill you weakens you, so the next thing maybe gets you... Or do you think it's coincidence when malnourished children die of diarrhea? Or the traumatized have problems years later?

    Well, malnourishment actually KILLS you, so it doesn't apply as an example. As for trauma, some people do go depressive, others build defenses and get out of it stronger...

    To be fairrrrrrrr.... I think Joe Rogan is referencing when they use saunas to sweat out extra water weight, so they can cut weight to make a certain weight class in MMA fighting. (Not that it's a good or healthy method, but it's a method)

    Physical discomfort is the body's warning that the water is too hot therefore unsafe for you. Get out of saunas that are too hot for you. A sauna should be calming, soothing, with no more than the very minor discomfort of sweating a little. One should be drinking water to prevent dehydration.

    Reading his book will actually show how rich people's charity not only does not change the world meaningfully, it also is done in many cases to avoid paying taxes. Anand's interviews and book have been enlightening. Unless we stop the extreme disparity in wealth and allow a small percentage of people to hoard endless amount of resouces, even billions of dollars of charity cannot get rid of poverty.

    It is so true that you CAN'T just assume that all people who look even mildly Asian are Chinese. Example: Me and my friend coming back from the park where we had been walking our dogs. We walked past two babies in a twin pram and they looked like they/their parents were from somewhere in Asia. My friend then said, "Look at the pretty Chinese babies!". Safe to say we aren't really friends anymore. Kinda hard to tell her this though, as our sisters and parents are friends...

    Unrelated but funny story. I traveled down from Northern California to Southern for a cousin's funeral. When asked about my relationship I informed my family that my boyfriend was a sommelier. Hours later a cousin finally asked what that meant. When I told her it was a wine expert she was silent for a moment, then said "Oh, we all thought it was someone from Somalia, and we all thought you were so progressive." We all got a good laugh about that!

    I've never found them to be aggressive, but when I've encountered them up close I just leave them be -- unless they're daubing where I don't want mud. Then I gently shoe them off (with something other than my bare hands!) and scrape away their constructions. AND they're beautiful to see, engineered by a master craftsman, blue black iridescence, raven rainbows, like carborundum.

    the "rock fandom" (I'm pretty sure there are better words for this but english is not my first language so I dont know them) is really so annoying, even more when you are a woman, you cant walk 3 steps with a band t-shirt without being questioned if you actually like the band, their songs or stuff like who is the owner of the mother of the dog of the 1st bassist's cousin, and don't you even try to play a song and post it online because you will always be "kinda good for a girl", doesn't matter how well you play... they always complain rock is dying but if you create a new band even if you are a man, you will never be good for them (thanks god, since they can only like people who are already dead)

    my dad(retired lawyer, now he’s in to architecture) went to law school for quite a while and he just loves to ramble on and on whenever me or my siblings have questions about law or smth. i think his favorite story was when he was taking a test or whatever it was to finalize it. the test was meant to be very hard and specified to put you under high pressure with little amount of time to solve the problems. someone stood up towards the end and threw their computer at the f*****g wall and stormed out. i don’t know about you, but i think it’s pretty funny. anyway, case and point, four months isn’t even close to enough experience nor education on the topic. take what i say with a grain of salt, though, because i don’t know everything about constitutional lawyers and i sometimes read things wrong, but like, four months just doesn’t sound right to me lol

    Hopefully people who can't be pushed to turn on their camera are allowed to just keep it off. You never know who is having issues with stalkers, a toxic family, hyperreligious parents, etc who don't want to risk their image getting out of them attending something. From the account, I'm guessing the show related to activism, possibly LGBT or BLM. Some people could be disowned by family, attacked by members of their community, shamed by their church, or have a difficult time in their workplace if the wrong person was on the call to see them.

    I get the impression that YouTube management only thinks that major corporations should control content, and constantly attacks, shuts down, and is complicit in allowing corporations to steal from small creators. It's time for a different platform to be used that is small-creator-friendly, and abandon YouTube.

    I know people make jokes to the contrary but people don't actually think with their genitals. If someone identifies as a woman and they are solely attracted to other women, they're a lesbian.

    You calling people weird, but then saying people should connect in whatever why is right for them. You can't pretend to be inclusive but then attack People who don't agree with you or have the same opinion. Being transphoobic or a terf is about not treating people with the respect, dignity and the kindness they are entitled to. Not wanting to have a sexual relationship with someone becuase they have body parts you are not attracted to its called personal choice. You might think itas limiting to exclude sexual partners based on their genitals but if someone feels uncomfortable they have every right to express that and not be called transphobic.

    Oh for heaven's sake, what is wrong with you people? Is there ANY other category of identity where we're supposed to pretend people are whatever they say they are? Penis is male. Males aren't lesbians. Men aren't women. Words mean things. Acting like a rightwinger's absurdist stereotype of a leftwing nutbag makes you look like a nutbag, but more importantly gives male predators *free reign*. Male rapists in women's prisons. Men shutting down women's shelters unless they let men walk around with their boners out. AT A RAPE SHELTER. I could go on but it's all listed here. https://thenewbacklash.blogspot.com/p/new-10-documented-harms.html Seriously. What is wrong with you all? You're THAT invested in the idea that feminine or feminized men aren't *really* men? You'll put women & girls at risk and make yourself look like an idiot rather than challenging the age old, sexist idea of *brainsex*?

    The women being raped and tormented in prisons with violent male offenders care. The women and girls being forced to have their boundaries violated in restrooms and locker rooms, hospitals, crisis shelters, and other places care. The women and girls losing sporting opportunities care. The women I work with personally who are often forced to choose between sleeping on the streets or in the WOMENS shelter with a male who harasses and openly masturbates and intimidates them unchecked, and staff who tells them to “check their transphobia” when they complain, care. The women showing up on porn hub in the background of the videos of trans identified males masturbating in female spaces care. Women and girls all over the world are effected by this legal and social erasure, violation of boundaries, and the placing of males subjective sense of self, or mental illness, or fetish above the safety needs and well being of women and girls. And reality itself.

And I want to tell all those people that by doing this YOU are not achieving anything. And YOU have plenty of faults YOURSELF. So since there are nice people in the world that have not pointed YOUR faults to YOU then be nice enough and follow the example. Also we dont choose how we look and its god who does.

    I don’t understand the hate. It’s not logical. We are all in this together. We are all one race, the human race. We ALL have different colored skin, that’s what makes us beautiful. Why hate on someone because their skin has a different color? And hate even within a race? Crazy. I bet if the hater did their genealogy, they’d find that other race in their own history. We need to move past this illogical, hurtful, and destructive prejudice.

    Skin tone prejudice is a real thing and not "racial nonsense" at all. A lot of the successful black models and actresses are lighter skinned. Rich black men have a tendency to marry women of a much lighter skin tone than themselves. Around the world, preference is still shown for black women with lighter skin tones, including in black majority countries. I get that in this case, the pictures are all of one woman, but the question about light skin is part of a bigger issue.

We are all mixed in someway here. We have a lot of african-decendents here, as well native americans. We have the largest japanese population outside of Japan and more italian decendents than Italy itself!

    Does anyone realise that to stop the masses ganging up together to fight oppression, the 'powers that be' practice a policy of 'DIVIDE AND CONQUER'. So while you are all mouthing off about different skin tones and oppressing each other the powers that be are in the clear. STOP IT. Forget skin and join together. Your oppression will NEVER END if you start in against each other. Choose your own battles and don't get carried away with white talk sh*t.

    This is a good algorithm. There is 1 person out of 7.7 billion who wrote this article. Twitter created this so that the other 7.7 billion would actually read something before claiming what it says. TL:DR is the essence of spreading misinformation. They will link to Merk's page for Ivermectin as proof that it cures COVID without actually reading it and see its a dewormer contraindicated for things that don't involve worms because it can kill you.

Or looking through a crack in their bedroom door while they're sleeping. I don't need a degree to know that you shouldnt overdo keeping your kid safe. Dont be a helicopter, you might think you're doing what's right by being a helicopter parent, but you're not.

    Just because you have spent all that time studying Child Development and 7 years working with them doesn't naturally make you an expert on parenting. Parenting is a FULL TIME JOB, 24/7. You don't get to clock off at the end of the day you have to be there for them all the time or if you work, make sure they are safe with someone you trust or at school. A friend of mine is a teacher and she has always said that looking after 30 kids in the classroom every day is way easier than being a parent to just 3 children and she is more qualified than this guy and has way more experience. These so called "experts". Shouldn't use their college degree to patronise and belittle people. Just because you have a fancy piece of paper saying you are an expert doesn't make you an expert in real life.

    My best friend is an engineer at NASA. My son had received a mobile as a birthday gift and she was attempting to help him assemble it. It was frustratingly difficult. My husband had a friend over, who also gave up on assembling it. He said, “I give up! I think you need to be a rocket scientist to put this stupid thing together!” To which my BFF replied, “But I AM a rocket scientist and I can’t put it together.” Everyone cracked up!

    My boss told me that they weren't getting the vaccine because we don't know what MRNA technology will do to us in the long-term, since we only developed it in the last year. I told them that wasn't true because we have been developing MRNA applications since, at least, the 90's. He told me I shouldn't believe what I read on "liberal websites". I told him I didn't read that online; I distinctly remember reading a research paper about MRNAs around 2000, which means it must have been developed before then. But he read that it had only been out for less than a year, and nothing could change his mind about that.

    Having been a player of MTG and a good friend to the creator of it's most popular card, Black Lotus, I can tell you it was never designed to be a children's game. As far as how the shops sell it, that's due to lack of an alternate description of the game. A game is a toy..but there is nothing that says toys are strictly for children. I miss Chris Rush. RIP

But I'm a fan of some painters and writers and I don't know what they look like. Doesn't matter either. I love their work, I don't need to Google their private life and see what they look like, etc.

    I've bumped into several musicians without recognizing them. Some of them were insufferable. Two young men in a bar rudely snapped at me about not giving autographs when I politely asked them to let me pass. I visibly destroyed their egos when I said, "I don't want your sloppy signature, I'm asking you to step aside so I can get back to my table." My friends promptly informed me that the guys were a famous drummer and lead singer. They aren't all bad, though. I bumped into a very chill group of guys in a service station once. They were asking the clerk where the best coffee house was. I directed them to a shop a couple of blocks away, and, since I was going that way, we walked and talked. I mention that I was in town to catch a concert that night, and they said they were that band. I was like, "Oh, cool!" and we parted ways at the coffee house.

    I'm glad you were able to get help. I hope you are in a better place now. People who have never been there, just don't undertsand. I was homeless before the time of cellphones. I couldn't get a job because potential employers could not contact me.... because I didn't have a phone. I put myself into an abusive relationship just so I could get back on my feet. Maybe if I had a cellphone, I wouldn't have had to choose between eating and not being beaten. Cell service in American costs $30-$50 a month, rent is $800 for one room with no utilities, no groceries, no phone - just a room. People need to stop comparing the two.

What good does that do her? she is protecting a company that is looking for free advertisement by TEMPORARILY housing refugees while neglecting homeless people.

    Some people are just not as famous as they think they are.

    why do you keep commenting such stupid things? The coach obviously isnt the issue here. The ass clown, similar to yourself, that wants to judge people attending a soccer game for not being "real" soccer fans is the asshole. jesus f**k man. this s**t isnt hard.

    how could they know one of the most well known people in the sport? while simultaneously acting as a gatekeeper judging 'real' fans from fake..... its ok just to say you have no idea about the subject matter. there is nothing wrong with ignorance...

    I see no issue on either side. It really depends on the tone. The first person could have been making polite conversation, and the coach could have had an a-hole attitude. Or the first person could have been being condescending, and the coach was simply snapping back. Or they both could have been making polite conversation in good humor. Who knows?

    How nice that your ego is so big that you expect everyone in the entire world to recognize your face. There was zero need to be a d**k about it!

    How is not condescending to ask a person, at a sport event, if they are a fan or if they are they attending because it’s ‘the place to be’? You have to be a ‘real’ sports fan to attend an event? Do you have to pass a test or something to meet a random someone’s idea of a fan?

    The CEO of a company that is having issues says that there is no need to worry? What a relief! I think we can totally trust him. He would have no reason to make light of a serious issue, right? (Sarcasm)
