Person 2- Is that's the gold standard we go by now a days?

Double standard

The least responsible person you've ever known, male or female saying someone or something else is not responsible.

The bubbly girl like to poke fun at another person's double standard, but couldn't see her own for what it was. She was too busy trying to get people to take her seriously and respect her by looking/sounding serious and indirectly having other people threaten people for her.

Non-standard

Substandard version of anything. A nice way of saying someone is utter bullshit.

That is a non-standard size of paper, what am I supposed to do with this? Throw it in the trash and set the building on fire!

selective double standard

A double standard based more on somebody's personal negative feelings than on fairness.

Lindsay the supervisor would order people she hated to do more work than everyone else (move the goalposts on them) and was quicker to try and get them fired if she hated them (a negative feeling towards them she would always deny having or say someone else felt that way if asked simply, plainly, and directly) whether they did their jobs as well as everyone else or not. She lived by the same kind of selective double standard she would always try and poke fun at others for having.
