Weirdos: Gotta Catch 'Em All! (jacked from "Today I learned" thread)

Also, I think that you guys who are jumping on him are totally wrong, and being complete fuckheads while you're at it.

[Dysfunctional Cunt]

Wow.

I have to say, I totally see JohNyx's perspective in all this. Khara's post really did read like "Who cares if people don't like you? Fuck 'em, or change" which is, I think, what he was responding to.

The deal here seems to be, some people here feel alienated from the majority. Others don't, or think there's a simple solution to that feeling.

The people who do feel alienated perceive that as an attempt to invalidate their feelings.

I'm done!

I wasn't nasty in my post.  And if we go with it is so EASY to see I meant something I didn't, maybe asking a question or something instead of being a complete ass in his response would have been better.

I guess, as the fuckhead I am, I'll just walk away.

I will however make sure I misconstrue other people's posts to the way I want them to read on a regular basis from this point forward!

I was pretty sure the conversation had drifted into "personal consumption of certain chemicals" territory, the behavior and judgement of which was the subject of Jenne's post.

Even that was part of discussion of normal vs. abnormal as far is it went when addiction was involved, and if a functional addiction could be covered under functional quirks.  Seemed on topic to me

I think that a fairly minor misunderstanding has blown up into a witchhunt.

Khara, I meant no offense to you, I'm just saying that I could totally see how he took your post. You clarified later, but then he got stuck on defending himself. Add a very small language barrier (his English seems perfect, but I've noticed some colloquial differences) and it turns into two people never quite getting what the other is trying to say, and a peanut gallery of assholes trying to find someone to burn.

Wow.  Forget I said anything.  Consider the matter dropped.

Khara, can you show me where he was a complete ass before you got nasty with him? I came into this late and read the whole thing, and I didn't see him getting nasty with you... at least not until after you told him to grow the fuck up.

FOR THE FUCKING RECORD....

In really simple words this time......

I do not understand or comprehend, (in other words I don't get it) why anyone cares about what other people think about them IF they are happy with themselves.

If they are not happy with themselves, then they can make an effort to change what they are not happy about with themselves in order to BE happy with themselves.  

If they can't change it because of WHATEVER reason, environmental, socialogical, emotional, whatever reason, then they will have to deal with it, as the options of NOT dealing with it are usually hazardous to one's health.

Everyone at some point feels alienated in their lives.  

No one can define normal for anyone except themselves.  HOWEVER because I think one thing is normal doesn't make people who do not fall into that category weird.

Is that simple enough for everyone because if it isn't HA HA HA

I don't give a flying fuck!

We are all assholes in the peanut gallery sometimes. I am just calling it as I see it. It was a dogpile based on a fairly minor misunderstanding. If that guy is Daruko, I'll change my name to the Wrong Reverend Shitstain.

Dear Khara:  Stop being so damn reasonable.










LMNO
-is joke.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Khara, do you understand why I used the word "feel" so much in my post?

[Dysfunctional Cunt]

Potato - potato.....

The real question to me is "Why give a flying fuck?"

If you are happy with you fuck them.  

If you aren't happy, change what you can and deal with the rest.  It may not be fun, but it's usually better than the alternative.

If you dont give a "flying fuck", then why "fuck them" if you are so indifferent indeed?

Oh ok, ill change to fit in, and "spread em" for what i cant change. Yeah, because only pussies are themselves.

Khara, can you show me where he was a complete ass before you got nasty with him? I came into this late and read the whole thing, and I didn't see him getting nasty with you... at least not until after you told him to grow the fuck up.

Nigel - Please see above!

I don't give a flying fuck!  

People want to be liked, and loved, by other people. It is a human need.

Is is very obvious that you don't understand. Maybe you should leave it at that.

HUH?

Where?

How was that being nasty to you? Because he made a sarcastic comment about how only pussies are themselves? How did that attack you? I mean, come on. That was not an attack.

It made it clear how he misunderstood your post, and a reasonable response would have been simply "No, that's not what I meant."

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

This post, Khara.
