Maybe we are all just assholes with different ideas.
Truth.
I was getting there. Just got home.
I have to agree to agree. We have totally different ideas on the right and left. And I think a lot of that comes naturally. But, I try to never let it become an issue between myself and other people. Try, is the key word. Because it still happens from time to time.
Thats all you can do brother. We are human afterall. We fuck up and say shit we regret. People are always gonna be assholes. Just gotta continue trying not to be one (as much at least)
I have bad asthma. Can't smoke the stuff.
Exactly. I feel like I'm a pretty decent person. But even thinking that I'm pretty cool, I still catch myself going off the cuff sometimes and saying stupid and hurtful things to people. I think beyond a decent person is the ability to own up to one's failings. I had a minor flame war with @bodyman5000 and 1 the other day. We addressed it in private conversations and made it alright. And now I trust the guy more. We treated each other like good human beings even if we didn't agree on our original positions. Totally fine. I'm not here to piss in people. I'm here to have dialogue.
I don't like brownies. Or chocolate.
The issue always lies with context and hypocrisy. I have seen both sides take "stats" and act like they are end all be all. Stats can be manipulated or used without context to prove your point.
I will admit that this came from @bodyman5000 and 1 . He apologized for so be things and I realized that I had to equally apologize for some things. We are all just people trying to live life.
If you ever tell anyone I apologized for anything again so help me.....MY WIFE COULD SEE THIS AND EXPECT ME TO APOLOGIZE TO HER FOR THE FIRST TIME. If she thought about all my "apologies" it would be like The Usual Suspects when she remembered how I phrased things so I really don't apologize.
Haha. Well worded. But, I apologized back to you. I thought we had a bit of an understanding. I still hold tight with that apology.
All of it was in jest.. All good, I've spent more time apologizing to her than eating breakfast over the last 16 years.
Haha. Infinite Jest is a great novel.
I had to Google that. Sounds too intricate for my aging brain. I have 1984 sitting on my nightstand and I need to finally read it after all these years.
Not for everybody, I will say. It is a tricky read. 1984 is probably a better place to start. David Foster Wallace will make you want to stop reading a few hundred times, much like my posts. But, when you finish, you will be glad you did.
I sent @HCP a PM and now i get to hang out with the mrs. twice as much. he's a good guy. also got %50 off my lawn care.
