Yeah, ya know all that might be needed is some love injection. That’s a nice mamby pamby approach to all the disagreement. I like it.
Although I find it really difficult to care what others have to say … I know I know … that sounds bad. But how serious can we take ourselves when we’re interacting with people who we solely know from the vast world wide web? If people agree with me, AWESOME. If they don’t, AWESOME. Yes I do take some people seriously, those who take the time to form coherent and thoughtful responses, as rare as those are.
What it comes down to though is how can some people argue with people they barely know? Online or not… if you haven’t had a couple personal conversations with someone, who gives a rip if they think you’re a moron. Everyone has a right to their opinion.. and I have a right whether or not I’ll listen to their opinion (haha).
My fool proof way to remain fool proof (heh) is to simply watch the behavior of an individual over a certain span of time. Are their actions consistent with their words? Are they wishy washy? Those all give me good predictors of what to expect … and I try my damnest to stay clear of certain types. Doesn’t always work though
I agree though, sometimes it’s easier to just fake it (it being an agreeance). It’s not always worth the effort to argue.
You're working probono here, guess you missed the notice.
