I see it here, I see it with people around me, at stores... HOLY SHIT!
when someone makes a statement or even a joke... its like you just kicked their cat or killed a family member. Some people better thicken their skins or I dont know HOW the fuck they will survive in this world. I get into a 'discussion' with a friend and I am having fun with this via E mail... I thought it was reciprocative... just a discussion. Now he sends me an E mail back that says:
WTF? Because of a conversation? THEN!!!! there is a case in point on a few occasions here that someone makes a statement (Well, I shouldnt say here because it is happening in everyday life) and BOOM! all of a sudden that person is labeled a racist, sexist, facist, bigot... WHERE THE FUCK IS THE "LIGHTEN UP FRANCES" PIC? Time people should REALLY lighten up a little before we either stroke out or have a massive coronary. |

I would agree. Although I am a very laid back person, so everyone seems uptight to me.
|
|
I think a lot of people feel like they got fucked over and /or they're tired of being labeled as "evil" when they're not.
|
|
Hey, your not picking on me are you? Cause if you are I'm gonna get mad!
|
|
What tittybaby went crtying to a mod???????? It is becoming DU around here lately.

We've been trained to be professional victims Nobody is raised to have the sack to shrug off insults; instead, they speed-dial their lawyer.
|
|
that all depends... who are you? |
|
|
Yep, lifes too short. |
|
|
Now you've done it. "Thin skin" is a symptom of osteogenesis imperfecta. That whole group is gonna be down on this site now. Way to go frige.
|
|
Oh no one ran to a mod... at least not that I know of... someone here made a slight off hand remark which I took as one way (just as the author intended) and someone else called that person a bigot. But that was just a small incident.. What started me off was the E mail I got. Basically I was having fun with a friend that sent me a chain E mail. He took it more seriously than I did. |

You really are Imbroglio!! |

I've delt with that kind of crap forever. Most of it stems from other sources building up pressure. just then with perfect timing you arrive to get both barrels. I for one never do this but know many that do.

Part of the degeneration of our culture is the rise in the desirability of victim status. The government, teachers, anybody in authority can be relied on to award power and other goodies to a properly certified victim. Therefore, in ways large and small, morons seek victimhood. Being offended is the opening gambit to victimhood and therefore to power.

I think my skin is the thinnest around the race/ethnicity threads. I probably just shouldn't read them anymore.
It just upsets me sometimes when people can't effectively make the distinction between Spanish-speaking American and Illegal Alien. Oh well. I know what you mean. You guys are alright. |

EXCEPT for YOU!!! YOU PISS ME OFF!!!! . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . |

Well I tried to call him but he wont come to the phone so it looks like E mailing is the only way to communicate to him.
Thats the problem with E mailing people. No one knows the tone in your voice so they cant tell if they are serious or joking around. Fucking A ... as the world turns... |
|
OOOOO OOOOO try to call me....IM sent.... |

Now he sends me an E mail back that says: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please, pick your fights with some judgment, since a friendship hangs in the balance. We may differ on issues, but facts are facts and falsehoods are falsehoods. The issue at hand cannot wholly be disproved or wholly proven true. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- " Kinda depends on what the disagreement is about. Is he sleeping with your wife? Or is he saying that coke tastes better than pepsi? |

I'm going to be a trolling asshole here.
Aren't you the same guy that posted a thread recently about someone talking shit behind your back? Or maybe that was someone else. If I'm wrong, I stand corrected. If I'm not...uh...what was it you were saying about thin skin again? |
|
Definite Arfcom material. |

Some people seem to take this internet discussion thing pretty serious, I read shit on here to relax and unwind, not get pissed off. I don't get worked up or my feelings hurt about something someone I don't know posts on the internet.

yeah i was the one that posted that thread. Big difference though. the other thread was about a good friend that went over the line while I always gave the benefit of the doubt. You see there is a time to get pissed and a time to just calm down to see what happens. When someone makes a statement on line... you can NEVER know what that person is relly thinking of what the intent is. This was NOT something that could be misconstrued. That was a direct hit. Let me give an example: If I said "Ryan doesnt wear clothes that I particularly like" that can be taken about 1000 different ways. but if you say "WTF Frige? You think i dress like an asshole?" THAT is what I mean by thin skin in this thread Now in the other case, If I said to someone you are friends with "dont tell ryan anything because he is an attention post whore and he will post it all over ARFCOM" tell me how would you take that, AFTER you promised me that you would take a secret to the grave? Ryan, you asked a great question. I hope i cleared the air on that. |

Ive been OWNED!!!!!! I decide to man up and go over his house to see what the f*** was his problem... i knock on the gate and his wife comes out and she sees that I am not too happy. She starts laughing and says "He is SO f***ing with you!!" Then she yells at him to come down and he says "TELL HIM TO GET OFF MY PROPERTY AND GO HOME!! I DONT WANT TO TALK TO HIM!!!" He comes down and tries to slam the door in my face, then just as he is about to slam the door he starts cracking up.... dickhead. He is an arfcommer so PLEASE no revenge ideas... at least not on the thread... IM THEM TO ME!!! Yeah this is the same guy that he and I play practical jokes on each other... he got me good.... Guess I was the one with the thin skin... |
