But the security guard is being paid to challenge you, the social cost is off-set by their wages and you'd have to be an ass to take umbrage at a security guard asking for your pass at the entrance to a secure facility.

My pass used to be checked every day for years, in an office of only 1k people, and a line-manager was the only person who could sign you in without it.

"you'd have to be an ass to take umbrage"

Have you seen our president's twitter account? Some bigwigs like to shit on the little people.

Living in a parliamentary democracy and not being an American citizen, “our President” is literally not my president. Are you referring to the American President, Mr. Donald Trump?

HN needs to become i18n compliant.

Someone saying "our" does not imply that you are part of "we." Our president is not your president.

So if I said "we're getting our carpet cleaned tomorrow," you'd demand to know what I was doing in your house?
