  • Every line of this post is a gut punch

    Man

    Everything you say upsets me and Knowing you is a burden.

    That is straight up fire. Need to message a buddy of 40+ years.

    This is a guy who of I haven’t talked to them in a while I ask if he’s lying or dying in a ditch somewhere. The one time he answered yes I said “Damn…..can I have your stuff?”

    If you're looking for some fire disses, I highly recommend Homer's Iliad. I was shocked at the amount of smack talk in that 2,500+ year-old story. If you don't want to read through the whole thing "just" for some fire disses, look up Hector's speeches to Paris. (Some limited context: Paris, a prince of Troy, went to Greece and stole a king's wife. That king and his Greeks waged war on Troy, and this story starts after nine years of that war.)

    My favorite, from Book III, this speech from Hector to Paris, his brother (emphasis mine):

    Sinful Paris beautiful to look on, seducer and deceiver of women, I wish you had never been born, or had died before you wed. Such is my wish indeed, far better than disgrace us all, an object of men’s contempt. The long-haired Greeks [their enemies in this war] must laugh out loud, and cry that our champion was chosen only for beauty, devoid of strength and courage. Was it not you who with your close comrades sailed the deep in your sea-going ships, mixed with foreigners and brought back a fair woman from a far-off land, the daughter of fierce spearmen, a source of woe to your father, city, nation; pleasing your enemies, shaming yourself? And dare you not face Menelaus, beloved of Ares, now? You would find what kind of man it is whose fair wife you stole. Your lyre will not help you, nor will those gifts of Aphrodite, your looks and your flowing locks, when he lays you in the dust. But the Trojans [their countrymen] lack spirit or you would have sunk beneath a shower of stones by now, given all your sinful ways.’

    Translation: Your birth was regretful, you are nothing but a burden, our enemies laugh at us, and if our countrymen had just a little bit more ambition, they would have stoned you to death already for the curse of your existence.

    Holy FUCK he cooked him

    Bro, you should have heard the noise I made when I read that part of the story. I figured there would be some smack talk between enemy soldiers, but this verbal disembowelment and disanguination of a brother?? And then multiple times??? Girl, it's my favorite part of Iliad. I get excited when I know one of Hector's diss tracks is coming up. I would pay real money for an album of Andy Serkis reading those speeches.

    I mean he definitely laid into him in the movie Troy but not like THAT lmao ty for this, stealing some of those for sure.

    Its like emotional dodgeball and I keep getting tagged

  • I’m sorry, but dilves as a plural for dilf?

    Only when it's a Tolkien dilf

    Or when the dwarves dilved too deep

    Tolkien Dilf was the best South Park character.

    Though he rather wished he used the historical plural of dillows

    You got me good 😂

    I’m rolling a dilf elf for that +2 cha bonus next campaign.

    Have you heard of the High Dilves?

    That's gonna be me Friday night after my son goes to his mom's

    Oooh, give me some of that dilven goodness 😩

    "I say milves and dilves because of elves and dwarves" - Babycakes

    Stands for Daddies I'd Like to Vore Every Second

  • Oh nooo. You totally got me! I won't be able to say that you are fired with our lips pressed together

    But you should, like, totally show me how you would do it though! You know, as a prank!

    Kidding haha! …Unless 👀

    Officer, this one also ate a comedic amount of ham

  • thicc dilves

  • It's their work husband/wife! Literally...

    Btw, how much trust or many super social skills you have to have to reach that level of intimacy? Like, dude...it's extremely weird watching a boss saying things like "you gave me pink eye" to an employee...

    But I think it looks like a partnership.

    That last line is doing a LOT of heavy lifting here

    "I've known them since we were kids" implies they've been friends since childhood so this kind of shit is a LOT more normal

    Can confirm with a Best Friend who is a General Manager and while I work elsewhere, I do tend to swing by to help and our interactions are about on this par. A lot more screeching though, I love me a good midnight screech.

    I can’t imagine EVER saying shit like this to a boss but I 100% would say this to my childhood best friend of 27 years. I imagine OOP is using ‘boss’ as an exaggeration when really they are probably more like partners in the business just one is a CEO and the other is a CFO type thing.

    Mostly because I couldn’t imagine running a full business with a best friend cause that is emotionally a …lot.

    If they had super social skills they would have realized they love each other twenty years ago instead of... Starting a business together?

    They were roommates business partners!

    look dude i'm just proposing to you for tax reasons, not like i like you or anything, baka!

  • By Talos, this can’t be happening.

  • I can't stop thinking about how the plural of dilf is dilves

    This implies an adjective, dilven.

    "Bolbo Raggins donned his dilven mail shirt, the strongest material ever to man the great and terrible grills of the baleful back yard, and knew in his heart that he was chosen, not by chance or a higher power, but by the kind of blinding necessity that drives men to madness and countries to their graves."

    Or something idk

  • "This is how we operate our business" sounds like it's a two-person business that OOP's friend started lmao

  • Look man, not everyone can handle their ham.

  • relationship goals

  • I don't know if it's just my weird neuroses (it definitely is) but having your childhood friend as your boss seems psychologically... interesting

    I imagine it’s also different vibes depending on the job

    Like… direct manager at a big corporation? Real weird cus there’s a whole team of other people who are on the same official rung as you who will notice the oddness and maybe involve hr

    “Manager” at a small store where half the time it’s just you two on shift? Boss or not they’re your friend and it’s probably chill.

    “Boss” at a startup where every member of the team is basically irreplaceable and a founding member anyway? Practically to be expected

    Etc.

    its probably "Boss" in the sense that its a two-person business one happens to own.

    Imagine Alison Green trying to do an Ask A Manager about this

    To be fair to her and them, she normally and clearly handles cases that are obviously meant to be from companies big enough to have an HR department or have a stake in at least appearing professional. This whole thing is giving either small business or start up, which have very different social and power dynamics... I'm pretty sure she'd essentially go with something along the lines of "Well, she's the boss and you're both fine with this, so technically it's fine? But also, be very prepared for this to mess up your personal relationship down the road, and if you ever want to expand and grow... This is going to hinder that."

    'psychologically interesting' is a wonderful phrase. thank you, it's entering my vocabulary

    I mean they're definitely flirting with each other, all those layers taken together definitely don't seem healthy.

    I'm the boss of my childhood school friends (infact 3 of my current employees are long time friends) and i would say I was lucky to have them as my first employees they were not afraid to call me out when i did something wrong really helped me not become an asshole boss i think

  • This is Alan and Mr Boss from Smooling Fronds

    I love how Alan can handle living the life of a secret agent without being one, but he drops the ball on basic social interactions.

    dude glep this is important we can't mess this up

  • I'm not skilled enough at talking to people to not completely fuck up where the line stands.

  • Homestuck kinda typing goddamn

  • I refuse to believe these are real people

    I know a weirdo like the boss in this chat.

  • I wonder if this is the same friend that spits in OOP's mouth

  • This all scans for things I would say to my best friend when he was my boss.

  • ‘Everything you say upsets me and knowing you is a burden’ is an amazing turn of phrase to use on friends.

    I am going to have to use that!

  • i hate when i want to reblog a post on tumblr and the ops have cleared out their blogs or moved 😡

  • Holy shit, this dynamic is so hot

  • Wild to learn that apparently some humans have gone their whole life without ever having a friend.

    Hey, having friends is hard, okay :(

  • "Good luck trying to say 'Im fired' with our lips pressed together." Yeah Im stealing this, or some variation of it

  • the last screenshot is mr. boss smiling friend

  • I'm not sure how I feel about that pluralisation of 'dilf'

  • This is a level of weird chaos that I would immensely dislike having in my life.

    It's fine. They like it. Good for them. May it never find me 

  • It's fine

    It's fine

    This is normal
