New Rule For the Internets, Six-Figure Income Division | Whatever

Amplify’d from whatever.scalzi.com

It is: 1. If you make a six-figure income, you are not allowed to argue on the Internets that you are poor. 2. You are not allowed to argue that you feel poor, which as we all know is just like being poor. 3. You are not allowed to posit the argument that if you hang around with people who make more than you, then you are allowed to have your wee little heart sing the Poverty Song because, after all, you make less than all of them and your life is sad. 4. You are not allowed to use your own poor money management skills as evidence of how challenging life is for those, like you, with six-figure incomes. 5. You are not allowed to use New York City, San Francisco or Los Angeles as an excuse for your piteous cries. 6. If you do any of the above, individually or severally, when the Internets call you out for being clueless, entitled, ignorant and an embarrassment as a human being — and they will — you will not then complain how your words were misunderstood and/or taken out of context and/or that people missed the real point of your argument. 7. This rule applies equally to any defending the right of those with six-figure incomes to mewl about their awful lot in life. Note to the Internets: This new rule is effective immediately. Please feel free to enforce it. Direct all complaints here. They will be dealt with appropriately. Read more at whatever.scalzi.com
