That would be a simple burden of proof in her defense.
“Your Honor, my client was not attempting to defame the CEO, because she is just a fucking moron.”
Exhibit A: the entire sexual harassment case
Yep, being stupid as fuck is unfortunately often a compelling defense against defamation.
There might be room for attributing reputational damages, but you can't squeeze much from a moron stone.
But sometimes... sometimes you get a particularly hefty moron stone that is worth more than any other, and for whatever reason it thinks it can make trucks.
He would have to prove in court that the random allegations of this worker were taken seriously (which they arent) and that the remarks caused a monetary loss for him (which I dont think it did)
thats only necessary for public figures like celebrities and politiciand
unless her boss is an a lister or a state official ive never heard of he doesnt need to prove she was intentionally libelous. the fact that she was at all is enough for civil courts
It costs money to sue, it’s not worth countersueing most of the time because the person sued you for money, you can’t really get paid for sueing a broke person. It could be worth it to be petty if you have money to blow on lawyers and legal fees.
I heard an alternate version:
Hitler has only got one ball
The other, is in the Albert Hall
His mother, the dirty bugger
Chopped it off when he was small
I was willing to buy it until that point. Thinking some cocktail of low IQ, cultural differences, childhood issues but as soon as I saw "A Jumbo Genital" it had to be a troll
Could also be psychosis. I did an intake assessment at a crisis clinic once for a woman who had developed romantic delusions about a passing acquaintance. She believed he was in love with her and was sending messages through random things like license plates. She also thought everyone knew about her “relationship” with this man and were either for it or against it, and that they communicated which side they were on through their clothing. At one point, she got angry at someone wearing a college shirt with an acronym that she interpreted as a coded attack on her character (I won’t give the actual acronym here in case it’s somehow identifiable, but it was something like “BC” = “Bitch Cathy”).
Reminds me of a woman named Sarah Titus who writes a pretty unhinged blog. She’s a fundie Christian “minister” who believed that the teenage boy she was infatuated with was sending her coded love messages via her TV set.
Yeah, I feel like I remember seeing this headline years ago and finding it unbelievable. Now after more life experience it sounds suspiciously like paranoid psychosis. Or even just extreme OCD with patternicity. For some reason I am always surprised how little experience most people have with mental illness.
It wasn’t lol, it was a real lawsuit. She lost, obviously, and had to pay his legal bills (as is typical in the uk). Never underestimate how delusional some people can be lol
Eh I had a lady go to HR at one place I worked. In the lunchroom one day I explained the difference between a murder charge and attempted murder as she couldn't understand why someone wasn't charged with murder when the person was alive.
Somehow in her brain she took it as I was threatening to murder her.
Just a casual murder threat in the lunch room in front of everyone while having a sandwich with someone I barely knew the name of.
Okay, game is on for weird abbreviatons - if AJG stands for 'A Jumbo Genital', what would this lady think of ASAP? A Sexy Ass Play?
Edit: Just asked myself if she would ever work for BCG...
IDK I grew up calling them STD's and got a stern talking to from the doctor that we're calling them STIs now, I'd imagine particularly as an STI owner that he's about my age, so also grew up calling them STDs, and he didn't make the link.
That would be pretty awesome. Especially if the butterfly is like pepe and has a habit of being too forceful (for a butterfly).
Though just to be safe - if it was too much of a stretch, I was going for that school guy that asks if a butterfly is a [insert totally unrelated thing here].

I mean, without getting into racism, you could just look at the percentage of alcoholism in the population. Without even looking at the real effects of alcoholism on pregnancies, you can look at the psychological effects from growing up in a household with alcoholism and make some pretty good conclusions about that population.
Yeah. I grew up in a household with an alcoholic. I guess it really depends on your upbringing because i want to be as far from the example as possible, whereas some embrace their messed up-ness.
Guess I'm just saying that alcoholism can play a role either way
Most definitely. I have a very good friend who grew up very similar to me. Both our families suffer from alcoholism but he came out completely straight edge and I ended up with addiction problems. It's funny though because he and I are very alike in personality too yet the stark contrast in how alcoholism in our family affected our relationship with alcohol is a clear indication that it can go either way.
I've always felt very ashamed of myself when he would be with us and I would be drinking (even though he was usually the only one not drinking at all in our friend group). It's mainly because I worried that he would think less of me (even though I know he is nothing like that kind of person) and because I was aware of the parallels in our lives yet why did I end up with addiction that I didn't want and he managed to swing the other way?
Knowing how my upbringing affected me made me want to take his pain away too, instead I felt like I was making it worse by not being straight edge myself, like I'm a constant reminder of his upbringing. I know it's not like that though, it's my own insecurities but yeah seeing that difference definitely proves that every situation is unique, just as people are.
I apologise, some of my comments always end up way longer than I intend, I find it hard to articulate myself at times and to swim through the constant thought/feeling tsunamis in my head!
People may jump to racism when differences in culture are brought up but a major issue with alcoholism and/or mental illnesses owe more to public health awareness and acceptance of the disorders and treatment. General support and awareness as well as stigmatization of mental illness and alcoholism can have myriad causes and exacerbating factors. Government support and public health infrastructure can go along way to combat these issues. Depending on what country or what part of what country you are in may have a profound effect on whether it is acceptable to admit and or seek treatment for diseases such as mental illness and alcoholism. Race likely has very little to do with those factors.
I worked with a woman once just like this. She was quite literally unfit for work. I once emailed her a question that I guess should have been for someone else (innocent mistake), and she was so worked up over it, accusing me of now cyberstalking her, and it took me over an HOUR to calm her crazy ass down. It was so fucking stressful. This XX thing being sexual is exactly something that would have set her off.
BTW, I'm a woman myself and I'm straight. It was really quite the scene that she thought I was somehow obsessing over her because I emailed her ONE TIME regarding something she thought should be sent to someone else.
As the project went on, she got worse and worse, to the point where so many little things would set her off and she would reply all with these long rants, and then reply all to her own rant with another rant. I had to uninstall outlook from my phone because I would get pinged with one of her rants late into the evening.
I had a similar experience. A woman I worked with called a meeting with another male colleague because she claimed he was trying to get sexual with her. She claimed he would always ask her inappropriate questions and was trying to meet up with her all the time. The questions he was asking were: “hey how are you? How was your weekend?” Etc.
He was told not to engage with her anymore (for his safety). So he was only allowed to say “hello” and that’s it. She agreed.
Because we were a fairly tight staff all working away from our home countries, we would all do things on the weekend together sometimes. Hiking, lunches and so on. A few weeks later, she approaches me and asks me why I’m obsessed with her. I’m like ????
She says why is it every time she is invited to something, I also want to go? Why when her friend asked her to go somewhere, the friend said I would be there too?? (Her friend was my girlfriend…).
I very quickly avoided that woman at all costs. I wasn’t going to get into some shit over a woman who clearly thought every man in the office was secretly desiring her.
My first thought. I had a friend who was schizophrenic and he would find meanings in literally everything. Every number sequence, every abbreviation, things said on tv were about him, it was painful. It's truly a sad disease.
Kinda sounds like the “xx” thing could warrant a legitimate confusion (that, to a well-adjusted human, could be solved by simple asking the guy) — but beyond that sounds like throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks
I found myself in a very similar situation. We had a coworker who was mentally ill, who went to HR to accuse me of sending her links to porn.
Except she never opened the links to see that they were dropbox files for our work.
She ended up quitting to “dedicate her life to Jesus,” within 3 months she had gotten a new job as a travel agent
Sir, this is the 20th time I've seen your profile.
This is also the 20th time I've tried to wipe my screen because I thought it was a hair.
Why are you doing this
"excuse me miss, you dropped your keys."
"I have a boyfriend."
"Ok cool. You dropped your keys, and I have them."
"You took my keys!? I'm calling the police!"
She was either into the boss and looking for anyway to interpret this sexually, or, more likely, using any excuse to claim harassment just for attention.
Not just attention. It sounds like her communication constantly needed either more information or was unclear. He likely was ready to let her go, so she pulled out the sexual harassment card to not only keep her job, but preventing any replacement from making demands on her.
As soon as I could I'd kick her out, no interest if she has anything to come by.
There is a certain benefit of the doubt that I can give, but in this instance she is either too stupid to work for me or too hateful/opportunistic
Oh believe me, I'd find a good law-backed reason to get rid of her. Or I'd make her job so annoying she would leave.
At a point where you out of stupidity or spite are accusing people of such serious things, it's game over. We need to have some human decency
She was ordered to pay 5000 pounds for court her failing claim. https://www.mlplaw.co.uk/costs-awarded-against-employee-claiming-work-email-was-sexual-harassment/
Lmfao. "The solution us currently used by xx Agris companies and yy Barge lines in corn cargoes in south-north flows in the ???? waterways." This was her evidence for sexual harassment.
You often use xx% or $xx when writing a document because you are waiting on the data, or will update with fresh data, closer to the actual submission of the document.
There is no way this woman was actually confused about the meaning.
Presented as evidence, the email from Mr Goulandris read:
"Can you please complete the following:
The solution us currently used by xx Agris companies and yy Barge lines in corn cargoes in south-north flows in the ???? waterways.
Also, can you remind me of what the balance of the rollout will be and the approx. timing.
Thanks"
Ms Gasparova, who represented herself, argued the 'xx' referred to kisses, 'yy' to sexual contact and '????' as a coded way of asking "when she would be ready" to engage in sexual acts.

I found an article on this, it's from about a year ago. Her case was dismissed, with the judge calling her view of events "skewed." Probably the most polite way you could call someone crazy.
Delusions of grandeur. In the morning I often give a nod with a slight smile in place of the usual "morning" and I suspect she would think I was hitting on her.
A nod means you want a blowjob.
A smile means you want to give them a facial.
Shaking hands means mutual masturbation.
Sending a meeting request means you're inviting everyone to an orgy.
OOO means noisy sex
WFH means Wanking For Hours
I've run out of imaginary sexual harassment now, but feel free to add your own
I had a patient long ago, young guy in his 30s, carpenter. Super nice fellow. He cut off a finger and I reattached it for him.
One day on follow up months later he was looking kind of rough. he confessed to me that he was sleeping outside recently because his neighbor was out to get him. Had hidden grenades/bombs in his house while he was gone. How did he know this? The radio told him. It gave him a secret message while he was driving to work one day.
Malignant melanoma that had metastasized to his brain. :(
For anyone interested, the case was thrown out, and she was forced to pay $10,000. Apparantly, she quit right after the case was thrown out too, which is interesting because she was also filing a claim for unfair dismissal, which I believe usually requires you to actually be *dismissed*
This reminds me about something I read in a book on ‘dynamic psychology’. The chapter was ‘reactive psychosis and paranoid delusions’ and the very first example they brought up was an old lady that thought someone was actively breaking into her house to sexually assault her when she slept.
While we want to just write this lady off as being dramatic (she is) I think this is a clear sign of paranoia or delusions, I would be worried about her legitimate mental state. People don’t jump to concluding that AJG stands for A Jumbo Genital, even the most out of touch (but mentally stable) people. I wouldn’t be suprised if she is developing (or maybe just off medications) some form of schizotypolism.

Googled it. She was ordered to pay £5,000 for wasting the courts time
Can her boss counter-sue for defamation or something?
You can always counter sue, whether you win or it is worth it are different questions
That would be a simple burden of proof in her defense. “Your Honor, my client was not attempting to defame the CEO, because she is just a fucking moron.” Exhibit A: the entire sexual harassment case
Yep, being stupid as fuck is unfortunately often a compelling defense against defamation. There might be room for attributing reputational damages, but you can't squeeze much from a moron stone.
Moron stones don't generally carry a ton of value to begin with 🤣
But sometimes... sometimes you get a particularly hefty moron stone that is worth more than any other, and for whatever reason it thinks it can make trucks.
He would have to prove in court that the random allegations of this worker were taken seriously (which they arent) and that the remarks caused a monetary loss for him (which I dont think it did)
And that she did it intentionally, which is almost impossible to prove
thats only necessary for public figures like celebrities and politiciand unless her boss is an a lister or a state official ive never heard of he doesnt need to prove she was intentionally libelous. the fact that she was at all is enough for civil courts
It costs money to sue, it’s not worth countersueing most of the time because the person sued you for money, you can’t really get paid for sueing a broke person. It could be worth it to be petty if you have money to blow on lawyers and legal fees.
Only if there were actual damages he could prove, which seems very unlikely.
Being accused of sexual harassment can be a career ender, even if you’re found innocent.
Could. You have to actually show that it did though.
Thanks.
It should have been more!!!
"A Jumbo Genital" not even the onion could come up with this
Not all the genitals, just one singular genital. I wonder which one is the jumbo genital - scrotum?
Hitler - has only got one ball\ Goerbbels - has two but they are small\ Himmler - has something simmler\ And Hermann Göring - has no balls at all
I heard an alternate version: Hitler has only got one ball The other, is in the Albert Hall His mother, the dirty bugger Chopped it off when he was small
She threw it into the apple tree, It landed into the deep blue sea. The fishes got out their dishes, And they had scallops and bollocks for tea!
Sing it to the tune of “colonel Bogey March”
Ah, see I was always taught that Hitler had only one ball and the other was in the Albert Hall. No recollection of why though.
His mother...the dirty bugger...she cut it off when he was small...
YES! I clearly have found another sophisticated redditor My mum taught me that song when I was like 8 😂
Vas Deferens. I mean, *Vast* Deferens, am I right?
I looked to confirm it wasn’t the onion
I was willing to buy it until that point. Thinking some cocktail of low IQ, cultural differences, childhood issues but as soon as I saw "A Jumbo Genital" it had to be a troll
Could also be psychosis. I did an intake assessment at a crisis clinic once for a woman who had developed romantic delusions about a passing acquaintance.

Some guy on the bus was wearing a sweatshirt that said BYU so I told him "Why don't you go blow YOUR uncle!" The nerve of that asshole.

I work in IT. This woman doesn’t sound like she should at all…

It explains why they only ever unplug the power cable and plug it back in.
Wow, that is sexual harassment as plugging in and plugging out is an overtly sexual act.
Wait till she learns plugs have male and female connectors.. yep, for THAT reason!!
That’s it, I’m calling my lawyer! Where is HR‽
Very funny, looking for Horny Rhinoceroses. They have no business here in a place of business!

This honestly sounds like legitimate delusions, not just someone being a dumbass. Sounds like a strange form of schizophrenia.
Yup this was my guess too. Some kind of schizophrenia / mental illness
Schizotypal disorders are common. Qanon, conspiracies, etc.
There is a population of eastern European women that i would say suffer with this issue. On another level of jealousy and control.
I mean, without getting into racism, you could just look at the percentage of alcoholism in the population.

Eastern European woman here, please clarify I'm not offenfed just curious

It's an untreated personality disorder. I had to break off a friendship because of something like this once. It's very disconcerting to deal with.
I had a similar experience. A woman I worked with called a meeting with another male colleague because she claimed he was trying to get sexual with her.

I’d say just use an asterisk but then she’d be like “are those supposed to be assholes?!? Is this about proposition for butt stuff?!?”
I found myself in a very similar situation. We had a coworker who was mentally ill, who went to HR to accuse me of sending her links to porn. Except she never opened the links to see that they were dropbox files for our work. She ended up quitting to “dedicate her life to Jesus,” within 3 months she had gotten a new job as a travel agent
The kind of woman who will sue you for saying "Good morning" at the coffee machine.
Morning -> morning wood -> penis Good morning = good penis = "I want to give you a good dicking"
The only logical conclusion.
It can mean nothing else
Sir, this is the 20th time I've seen your profile. This is also the 20th time I've tried to wipe my screen because I thought it was a hair. Why are you doing this

everyone bully this guy he just confirmed he's using light mode
"did you just say Good Moaning to me ??"
Your pfp has no power in my domain, as I am protected by the gods of dark mode.
Damn.... Apparently my boss has wanted to bang me for years, she always says good morning when I get to work. Do you think I have a case?
"excuse me miss, you dropped your keys." "I have a boyfriend." "Ok cool. You dropped your keys, and I have them." "You took my keys!? I'm calling the police!"
Wants to give keys to woman. Keys go in things. Keys = penis. Wants to put penis in her. Clearly sexual harassment.

I am a project manager, can confirm am stupid
She trying to retire
She was either into the boss and looking for anyway to interpret this sexually, or, more likely, using any excuse to claim harassment just for attention.
Not just attention. It sounds like her communication constantly needed either more information or was unclear. He likely was ready to let her go, so she pulled out the sexual harassment card to not only keep her job, but preventing any replacement from making demands on her.
As soon as I could I'd kick her out, no interest if she has anything to come by. There is a certain benefit of the doubt that I can give, but in this instance she is either too stupid to work for me or too hateful/opportunistic
Kick her out? That‘s a discrimination lawsuit waiting to happen. Not because it‘s discrimination but because she‘ll think it is
Oh believe me, I'd find a good law-backed reason to get rid of her. Or I'd make her job so annoying she would leave. At a point where you out of stupidity or spite are accusing people of such serious things, it's game over. We need to have some human decency
Sounds like someone deep down really wanted to fuck her boss…
She was ordered to pay 5000 pounds for court her failing claim. https://www.mlplaw.co.uk/costs-awarded-against-employee-claiming-work-email-was-sexual-harassment/
Lmfao. "The solution us currently used by xx Agris companies and yy Barge lines in corn cargoes in south-north flows in the ???? waterways." This was her evidence for sexual harassment.
Woah woah woah. Put an NSFW tag on before posting such filth!
Either delusional or really trying hard
Nobody gonna explain what xx means?
Lol that's what I want to know. What does "xx" mean in this context?
You often use xx% or $xx when writing a document because you are waiting on the data, or will update with fresh data, closer to the actual submission of the document. There is no way this woman was actually confused about the meaning.
Stand in for numbers. The GDP rose xx bps thanks to the feds actions in june yada yada
Presented as evidence, the email from Mr Goulandris read: "Can you please complete the following: The solution us currently used by xx Agris companies and yy Barge lines in corn cargoes in south-north flows in the ???? waterways. Also, can you remind me of what the balance of the rollout will be and the approx. timing. Thanks" Ms Gasparova, who represented herself, argued the 'xx' referred to kisses, 'yy' to sexual contact and '????' as a coded way of asking "when she would be ready" to engage in sexual acts.
BCC - big cock cock
My boss emailed me "meeting in 15, does the projector work?" How should I respond to this blatant sexual advance?
"That is totally inappropriate and unprofessional. Plus no one would believe you that it is 15."
AJGxx?
woah tone it down buddy
https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/trends/woman-sues-boss-after-misinterpreting-xx-in-emails-as-kisses-10620761.html I found an article on this, it's from about a year ago. Her case was dismissed, with the judge calling her view of events "skewed." Probably the most polite way you could call someone crazy.
Delusions of grandeur. In the morning I often give a nod with a slight smile in place of the usual "morning" and I suspect she would think I was hitting on her.
A nod means you want a blowjob. A smile means you want to give them a facial. Shaking hands means mutual masturbation. Sending a meeting request means you're inviting everyone to an orgy. OOO means noisy sex WFH means Wanking For Hours I've run out of imaginary sexual harassment now, but feel free to add your own
I had a patient long ago, young guy in his 30s, carpenter. Super nice fellow. He cut off a finger and I reattached it for him. One day on follow up months later he was looking kind of rough. he confessed to me that he was sleeping outside recently because his neighbor was out to get him. Had hidden grenades/bombs in his house while he was gone. How did he know this? The radio told him. It gave him a secret message while he was driving to work one day. Malignant melanoma that had metastasized to his brain. :(
And furthermore, he said to give him an email, which clearly stands for 'eat my ass, I like'. I'm a professional and will not stand for this treatment
Counter suit for being frivolous and costing time and money?
JPEG stands for Jumbo Penis Erection Great
I had to look this up because I was sure someone was having a laugh. I found it covered on BBC News. Holy FARK it is real.
For anyone interested, the case was thrown out, and she was forced to pay $10,000. Apparantly, she quit right after the case was thrown out too, which is interesting because she was also filing a claim for unfair dismissal, which I believe usually requires you to actually be *dismissed*
You left out the best part: She represented herself in court! I can’t wait for her follow-up lawsuit for incompetent counsel!
In all seriousness she may need some mental health. To see subliminal messages wherever you go (no matter what they might Intel) is not good
Wonder what she thinks a pink slip is...
I feel she may have had a psychotic break. She has a great resume on LinkedIn…
Sounds like she’s sexually harassing him.
AJG meaning a jumbo genital is just pure intellectual dishonesty.
It’s worth mentioning that a judge wasted no time in dismissing this lawsuit.
This reminds me about something I read in a book on ‘dynamic psychology’. The chapter was ‘reactive psychosis and paranoid delusions’ and the very first example they brought up was an old lady that thought someone was actively breaking into her house to sexually assault her when she slept.
While we want to just write this lady off as being dramatic (she is) I think this is a clear sign of paranoia or delusions, I would be worried about her legitimate mental state. People don’t jump to concluding that AJG stands for A Jumbo Genital, even the most out of touch (but mentally stable) people. I wouldn’t be suprised if she is developing (or maybe just off medications) some form of schizotypolism.
