LIR: mandy

Posted by oblique, better than nubby (aka kkuphal) Feb 17 '09, 12:05

I can only speak for myself. I don't hold grudges. I don't refrain from speaking to someone. I don't have animosity towards anyone. I may be more sensitive about things some people say than others if things have happened recently, but for the most part, I think we should all be able to work things out as they happen and move on without ignoring people. I think that only leads to worse things later on when those feelings resurface and then someone lashes out at someone else who maybe has no idea why

I think that figuring things out in real-time is great for infrequent issues. but when two people's entire wordlviews are just completely opposed, - all the presdients love mandy lane Feb 17, 12:09 17
- I understand. I think there are people here who I am diametrically opposed to in many ways as well. But I can talk with them here and not get myself - oblique, better than nubby Feb 17, 12:12 12
  - I think that you are less often victim to personal attacks than am I. certainly less often than is jack. if it's infrequent, again, - posting from class loves mandy lane Feb 17, 12:16 3
    - not at all. *breathes* I also, from my outside view, don't think you're being attacked as often as you think -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 17, 12:18 2

      - not since I stopped attacking people who were prone to attacking me. -- nm - posting from class loves mandy lane Feb 17, 12:20
  - But not everyone is like you. Some people can't do that, and find it easier to avoid. - ty97 Feb 17, 12:15 7
    - I agree. If that was the case though, there wouldn't be a problem, would there? - oblique, better than nubby Feb 17, 12:16 6

        To lay it out, the one's I've seen and can speak to involve - oblique, better than nubby Feb 17, 12:21
      - *seriously*? "be more like me" is your advice? fab. -- nm - posting from class loves mandy lane Feb 17, 12:18 2
        
        I can only suggest that maybe your way isn't working so well - oblique, better than nubby Feb 17, 12:20
        
        How is that different from "Everyone should ignore people like I do?" -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 12:18
      - There are problems because this place is made up of humans. - ty97 Feb 17, 12:18

  - There's also truth to the idea that those people you hate/ignore do not share the same feelings towards you - oblique, better than nubby Feb 17, 12:15
  - You have some blinders on too sometimes. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 17, 12:14 1

The ignoring thing really comes across as childish to me. - Dignan Feb 17, 12:08 7
- it's just easier than fighting. when every interaction devolves into childish namecalling and baiting and bitching, why bother even trying? - posting from class loves mandy lane Feb 17, 12:13 4
  - As the target of your and JD's ignoring, I'd say it has made everything far, far worse. -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 12:16 3
    - ok, how about this. for a few days, every time you post something I find objectionable, cloying, or baiting, I let you know? how would that be? - posting from class loves mandy lane Feb 17, 12:19 2
      - how about you act like an adult? -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 12:20 1
        
        How about you act like a *sane* adult? -- nm - Spawn Feb 17, 12:27
- and when you ignore it tends to shut the door forever. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 17, 12:11
- I still have no idea why JD ignores me. hand to god. -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 12:10
I totally agree with everything in this message. -- nm - secretslacker Feb 17, 12:06 1
- I'll use you as an example, if you don't mind. - Inigo Feb 17, 12:10
