what I dislike...

[250]

I don't like when people say:" wow, it is cool, but..." or "I agree, but..." or "yeah, true, but..." or "you're right, but..."

what the heck, dood3z? if you agree, then shut up, no but either agree or disagree, goddamnit, is that so hard to say no? it just very annoying, do you agree or not? geez

I am not talking about anyone particular, just my style in general

I hate wise cracks, you know?

Beaumanoir, thats right!

The problem is that people can partially agree, or agree on one point but not think that the argument used is persuasive enough.

Suppose someone claims an elephant is a dangerous creature and says: 'It's so heavy that you'll die if it sits on top of you'. Now that's true, but elephants mostly don't sit on people and are very gentle creatures.

It's something different when someone uses the yes, but construction as a way to ignore other people's points, in which case you are absolutely right 250.

But most of the time, that is just how people talk.

thats what I dislike
generally, to me, it is a sign of lack of confidence or unhealthily self-concious. saying no won't hurt people's feelings, saying no won't crash down heaven

of course, there are exceptions, so don't throw rocks at me for not addressing it.

Originally posted by Hiram Sedai: Very well, you asked for it. I wasn't wise cracking. I just don't like being told to shut up. I never have. If that is your style, then cool. I respect that you want people to be silent in your presence. Your overwhelming egocentricity is a wonder to behold. I'll try not to respond too often by agreeing or disagreeing. It may be a struggle, but I'll do my best. I've expended entirely too much energy already. I have a Monday to contend with. If I failed to use smiley faces in this post it is because I usually use words instead of smiley faces. As always, I meant no harm or offrontery by my words.

hey, buddy, sorry dude, I offended you?
you are a wise, nice and intelligent guy, you know? it is really nice knowing you. what I said there may not sound cool to you, but don't you lose any sleep for it, OK?
just think:" f--- you, 250, I don't give a damn!"

potty mouth one last time
I don't mind anyone disagreeing with me, but don't feel hurt, that wasn't my intention
