Fortunately, at my work, when we have disagreements we hit the mats and take it out on each other physically.
Pretty much settles all issues within minutes.
In the good old days I used to do the same but the resolution took a lot longer than a few minutes.
I don't seem to remember any disagreements as such but everyone left with a funny walk.

^Welcome to OT.com. They scare off a lot of people like that, but... not usually in off topic.
It's not so bad.
The problem with threads (as a model for discussion) is that they quickly become echo chambers. Even if someone were to write a post saying that they agree with me, it'd get lost in the noise of the mob.
A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.
I’m late to the party, but I think this is the best song. Enjoy!

Discussion? Your first ever post in off-topic was a whiny rant about workplace behavior for people who have had something horrible happen to them.
Funny thing is, it sounds like the guy you are describing might just be a jerk. But your OP immediately set things off on the wrong foot.
You should try hanging out in the Politics thread for a bit.

You're hilarious.
I wasn't trying to be, but I do appreciate the complement.
Seriously, if you have a problem with me, don't beat around the bush, but instead come right out and say what's on your mind.

Wrong. It was a whiny rant about hostile workplace behavior in which I used so-called horrible things for emphasis.

I agree. I shouldn't have tried to use anything for emphasis.

I doubt that I will.

Did you actually read my reply or did I not (tl;dr)-proof it enough?

I can't remember what my first Off Topic thread was (old age) but I seem to remember the first post was a picture of a really big moustache on the "This Thread Is About..." thead.

Can you ask more explicitly? I'm running on very little sleep :-(
So what you're saying is that your lack of sleep has caused you to become intolerant of others?
I think if people have had very little sleep, even no sleep, they should be able to turn that exhaustion off when they log in here and not start angry ranting topics.
Incorrect. I was saying that my lack of sleep prevented me from understanding what he was asking of me. It had absolutely nothing to do with my level of tolerance.
Nice attempt at trying to turn my argument against me, but sadly, it didn't work.
A+
Incorrect. It was me poking a little fun, but sadly, you didn't catch it.
Vacated.
I'm officially done with- and unsubscribing from this thread. Let's let it rest.

Sometimes a person going through a rough time and being hostile just needs someone to put a hand on his/her shoulder and ask, "Hey, are you okay?"
Labeling someone as angry, hostile, unstable, etc. is a cold, unsympathetic path to take. You can never know what someone is going through unless you are in that person's shoes.
Is this thing on????
