This forum’s really hit the fan this last week. What the hell is in the water?

Well, without knowing anything about the circumstances, this seems to be the only one of the three that isn’t a direct and ridiculous overreaction to forum drama.

You assume the way in which you would have them react is the correct way to react. If you want them to not react the way they do, calling them ridiculous will likely not be effective.

Well, they were behaving ridiculously. That’s an objective fact.

I’m one of the few people brazen and crazy enough to just admit that I think everyone that disagrees with me is wrong. Most people think like that too, they just pretend not to.

Few people are self-aware enough to realize they think that way. And once you realize how uniquely right you are about everything, it’s not polite to say so. Even fewer people progress to the next step of questioning that belief so that they can strengthen the conviction they are right, ad infinitum.

Depends on what you’re talking about. If you’re talking about moral issues then of course I think everyone that doesn’t think what I think is wrong. If you’re talking about less important things like media and entertainment I don’t think that.

If they think that a movie or musician that you think is great is actually bad, you don’t think they’re wrong? Obviously you’d be crazy to say someone is “wrong” if they say they like or dislike something, but if someone says that they think Gigli is a great film, I can say they’re flat-out wrong and still sleep soundly.

Well, true, but “This is bad” and “I don’t like this” are two entirely different things.

Opinions are like onions, I always mistake one for the other.

I’m leaving the public areas of the forum for a while.

so how did you enjoy your time in the seedy underbelly of OT?

I assume it’s the same as the seedy publicbelly of OT, except with less Frink.

So just as annoying but not as fun.
