Nah, takes nothing to listen, it requires zero expenditure of energy or even thought to listen. Hell, I fake listening to people all the time, nodding my head thoughtfully while in reality I am day dreaming about something else. Doing something takes balls, takes effort, takes energy. Listening, christ, even the…

It’s not even Thanksgiving and you’re handing out Christmas presents to the trolls like there’s no bottom to the Splinter well. Which there isn’t. Outstanding. 

Gotta give props to dude for having the balls to call u up and open a dialogue. 

1) I’m printing this out in it’s length and entirety to frame on my wall. This is some David Frost, Ned Brooks level history here.
2) Pete’s reply had me scrolling through my phone to see the footage of MH and PB duking it out on World Star Fight Comp of The Week. No such luck.
3) This was cathartic as fuck. It is true.…

its not hate, its that we do not get a lot of social customs, they are straight up bizarre and confusing. Now my cheat is humor, and that helps a lot. but for a lot of us we have absolutely no clue how people actually want to communicate, but somehow every way we do is wrong. Imagine if you were playing an mmo for the…

Of course not. I’m selective of whom I hate, and also have several gradations where I classify people I dislike.

You continue to frame it based of what we can do. Ethics and morality are not concerned with “can.” They’re concerned with should, and though you try to frame your position as being ultimately based around a personal ethical decision, it’s closer to the truth to say that it was a rational decision you made to free…

Well, one of these people is not making statements about this every month.

I get that some people can’t separate the artist from the art but it’s never been an issue for me and my enjoyment of movies and art.

We don’t hate people. They just disappoint us so much.

No. That’s misanthropes.

Nope. I’m an introvert (“so far to the end of the introversion scale, if I were any further out I’d be dead”) and I don’t hate everyone. I also appreciate this article, both for its semantic content and the kind intention behind it.

I’m an introvert and I don’t hate everyone. People just take up a lot of energy when communicating with them. Frankly, I find it takes less mental effort to be overly cheerful in text then in person. It’s easy enough to add a :) after my very straight forward reply.

I’m getting awfully close. I can like a person but I hate people.

and people wonder why we introverts hate everyone. you all keep inventing these stupid rules and making interacting with anyone a complete chore. if somebody thinks im rude or dismissive by typing “ok” to their text and gets offended, they deserve it and they did it to themselves. as far as im concerned they are doing…

If we’re going to outlaw “OK” then we sure as shit need to also get rid of “Fine” 

My way of communicating is to sit down in the empty seat next to you.

Because they don’t know how to live in the now. Bouncing from one event to the next helps them escape whatever they are trying to avoid in the now.

I definitely went through this after my wedding! My Husband and I aren’t fully on the “no kids train” but the post wedding feeling of ‘what else is there’ hit me hard.
