    Grudge holders. I don't do that. I may be pissed at someone for a while but I get over it and it's done. In my entire life I've done only one thing that someone could legitimately hold an ongoing grudge against me for. Other than that I say that people are just prideful and childish for continuing ill feelings.

    Even some that have done me really dirty I've buried the hatchet with. I don't care if it is cliche, life is too short for grudges.

    I like guessing games. My guess is you are patient zero for the Covid-19 pandemic! :eek: 


    I'm with you on this. I enjoy sh*ts & giggles on boards in general. It rubs a few peeps the wrong way with them thinking I don't take life or subject seriously. To an extent I've been blocked from posting. Sad really.

    People who are prejudiced on a given subject, but know less about it than you, but still sneer in your face as if they know more..... Right up until you school them on it, at which point they’re ranting about how you’re being a snowflake, you took it too far, you’re obsessed.

    No. You wanted to talk down to me, and you got your mouth washed out rhetorically, because you never actually had plans beyond “act smug, misquote a few studies”, where as I’ve been studying this topic for years.

    And now you’re upset and projecting that onto me. Cockroach. Intellectual and academic filter-feeder.

    Of course it DOES bother me— I LOATHE misinformation— But it’s less an emotional sensation and more the distant antipathy one experiences when a mosquito buzzes in your face when you’re trying to relax.

    People who get bent out of shape at the mere mention of the n-word but at the same time see nothing wrong with calling black people they dislike or disagree with coons or Uncle Toms.

    When people get bent out of shape over trivial matters, like the opinion of a movie. If you liked it and I didn't, so TF what? We're all not going to agree on everything.

    The Mortal Kombat movie was quite polarizing among my friends on social media and a great many got offended if your opinion differed from theirs. It's no secret that besides the first ten minutes, I thought it was popcorn crap. I gave a detailed response why I disliked it and cited specifics and used examples, so one guy said in response, "If you disliked like it so much, why don't you go and make your own version?" :rolleyes:  Bro, really?

    Social Media is so wack.. Facebook, Twitter all of it. I wouldn't put much thought into any of it. These people y'all argue with might pop off online but they keep that head down & mouth shut out in the world. You can insult them straight to their faces they ain't saying shit back. Guaranteed.

    That's actually a major pet peeve of mine when someone pulls that kind of nonsense in a discussion. It's intellectually dishonest to begin with and it's even more grating that they feel the need to act like such a smart ass over a difference of opinion.

    You’re right. Fighting hate with hate is never the answer. Instead, you should fight hate with sick wizard lightning that you shoot from your hands, electrocuting your hater to death slowly, agonizingly...
