Welcome to The Shitpost Office
Shitposts processed from 9 to 5, with occasional overtime on weekends.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Sinister
Treat others like fellow employees, not enemies in the breakroom.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Respect people’s time and space. We’re here to laugh, not to loathe
Rule 2: No Prohibited Postage
Some packages are simply undeliverable. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content
- NSFW content must be properly tagged
If you see anything that violates these rules, please report it so we can return it to sender. Otherwise? Have fun, be silly, and enjoy the chaos. The office runs best when everyone’s laughing.... or retching over the stench, at least.

MODERATORS
Again, using anything to avoid the metric system.
Sure. Go on, what's the minimum wage in centimeters?
Federal minimum wage is 4.8 centigrams per hour.
Tap for work
Going off the price of gold, and assuming my math isn't just absolutely fucked, which it probably is because I'm just some schmuck doing math for funsies.Current gold price is $150/gram according to the first site I found that wasn’t blinking the information at me in blue and neon green
150/7.25=20.69 (wage hours to a gram)
1/20.69 (1 gram divided by the wage hours) = 0.048 (total portion of gram representing one wage hour)
0.048x100 = 4.8 centigram 0.048x1,000= 48.33 mg for a more common conversion :)
