      Yeah so I don't think being an "ironic asshole" as your shtick among your trusted friends is necessarily a bad thing But it's something to be cautious with in any professional environment, and is frequently used as a way to intentionally blur the line with actual abusehttps://twitter.com/MKPinDC/status/1359910275185582080 …

      Somewhere there’s a clip of Tudyk explaining how Whedon communicated on the Firefly set, using a lot of sarcasm, “look, fool, would you like to take that again without being terrible and ruining it for everybody”. So I bet there’s plenty he saw but interprets generously https://twitter.com/michelledean/status/1359905683022389248 …

      The podcast interview with James Marsters about the time Whedon backed him up against a wall screaming in his face got into this The first thing the interviewer asked was "Okay but was he like kidding around, was he messing with you"

      And Marsters has this disbelieving "No! He was seriously pissed off! I was scared!" (And I mean probably if you asked Whedon about it he'd be like "Oh that was a bit and I just really commit to the bit, it's my thing")

          HS "friends" would jokingly call me "fat ass", "dumb ass", and the R-word. We'd also play "sack tap" in which we'd jokingly hit each other in the nuts, but I was disproportionately targeted. One time, someone even took a half full 7-Up bottle and swung it right between my legs.

          I was trying to fit in, so I played along. Laughing at myself and using self deprecating humor as a coping mechanism. I wouldn't realize until I was in my early-mid 20s that this was not something a friend should do.

          "male-bonding or bullying" In my experience they're almost always synonymous few things about my childhood fucked me up as much as male "friendships"

          unpopular men totally recreate the same toxic male behaviors in geekdom etc that jocks have. Someone wrote an oft cited essay about it but I'm blanking on the name.

          Which means that a part of our responsibility is redefining what "bonding" is in the workplace (and not just with "males")
