Sucks that you had to be a Trump supporting racist, Mr. Scott Adams.

      If shitty person #1 does a shitty thing to shitty person #2, doesn’t make shitty person #1 less shitty

          Absolutely not and it’s ok to HA-HA in his face as long as the joke stays fresh, but I wouldn’t call the girl “queen”: she’s just a gold digger that gave a valid argument for even more misoginy from the other side

            You think gold digging warrants misogyny? Yikes 🤢

            She just played the capitalist patriarchy, good on her. Don’t hate the player, hate the game.

      I used to like his comics as a kid but now, having worked as a software developer for years… I’m starting to look at them different. He was always so fucking demeaning about the pointy haired bald boss, made him an absolute idiot. The constant joke was that the chad Dilbert was smarter than the idiot manager who never understood a thing about technology.

      I bet Scott was an absolute fucking asshole in the office and hated having to be told what to do by people he saw as less than him.

        I had a boss in a development job once, post dot com that made the pointy haired boss look like a genius. He wasn’t just uneducated, he was mean and sometimes awful.

        One of his favorite games was three options. For every task he wanted three options to do it. Once you gave him three, he would pick what he deemed the worst of the three just to watch people squirm.

        One day after a particularly uninspired rant, one of the devs waited till he went to lunch and threw his keys into the recycling shredder box. I never went that far myself, but I fully understood it.

    Dilbert would have hated Adams. PHB is basically Trump and somehow he completely missed it. Every a shame.

      No no no. PHB is Elon Musk, 100%. (Doesn’t know shit about anything and is dumber than a bag of rocks, but is still very enthusiastic about going forth and fucking things up.) Trump is like the CEO of Dilbert’s company (a lot dumber than the PHB, but fortunately too stupid to function most of the time, so his direct subordinates have to do the actual day-to-day fuck-ups, leaving only the most gigantic massive fuck-ups for him to handle personally).

      Edit: And of course it comes as no surprise that when Adams went into the deep end, he worked to “rehabilitate” PHB and other dumb manager characters and made them look better. He was no man of principle, you see.

      Adams made Dilbert pretty insufferable and (right wing) political in his later years.

    Well damn, I totally missed that Scott Adams died!

    Its late but I still feel like something celebratory is deserved… Maybe a bowl of ice cream with a birthday candle? Yeah I’m gonna go with that.
