Does one set get a break from saying stupid things to get themselves fired, and the other, not? Where do dorks fit in there?

Well, I was still stuck on Freaks and Geeks myself. Didn't contemplate dorks yet.

Obviously, dorks are people who don't know the difference between nerds and geeks.

You have to admit you stepped right into that one.

It's like what's his name said, "I hate it when people assume that just because I'm a dork, that means I'm a loser. Let me tell ya, it's just a coincidence."

Sorry, forgot the comic's name.

Totally different, as different as different can get, especially seeing as how she was telling dick jokes earlier.
And remind me again why we should tolerate cruelty, ever?

Of course this gal has "issues" and maybe a lot of other women would have just let it go by. But these jokers picked the wrong one, and shouldn't everyone be responsible for the consequences of their actions?

BTW, what difference does telling dick jokes have to do with this (and I understand it was just on the internet)? If your wife or girlfriend told a dirty joke among friends in a restaurant, does that entitle some loudmouth stranger to publicly insult her? And what would you do if they did... just tell her to ''suck it up honey, it's a cruel world out there''?
