    How sad that you had to type, “original employment drama”. That fact that you had to decipher WHICH time somebody on here tried to ruin me and my family’s life is mind blowing.

    I challenge you to post when/where I've gone on so-called tantrums of unfairness, etc., and I'll address accordingly.

    Ok. Let's let sleeping dogs lie. It won't benefit you to dredge this up again.

    I think RR7 was commending you on the fact that you don't throw so-called tantrums.

    I took his response as a bit of sarcasm. Thanks for clarifying.

    Lol!

    toughen up. Everyone snarks at each other. Its common. Its accepted. Dont ever push back on it.
    either join and accept it or dont engage.

    No one here is ever gonna look in on their own communication styles to see if they can improve. Why? Its accepted already!

    Its easier to rail on those who think thats bullshit. Rather than look into oneself and see if improvements could have been made to allow for a better, more positive interaction….

    instead lets put all the honus and responsibility on the other to learn to accept it or else….

    This allows the complete avoidance of any responsibility for ones behavior.

    i need to utilize this trick more often.

    i

    Nah he is comparing you and i. As if everyone should be robotically the same and have the exact same reactions. Because were not individuals with our own opinions.
    We should all just react exactly how he wants us to react amidst such negativity, Or its my issue. Not the spewer of negativity.
    Lol.
    The lengths to defend such negative behavior is astounding!

    But you're the only one railing about it. If it weren't for you posting about it all the time it wouldn't be an issue.

    I get that it doesn't make you feel good, but these long posts and arguments about it can't make you feel great either...

    He was comparing him to you, yes.

    And we shouldn't be commenting on posters, but you continue this on and on and it makes it hard not to comment on it man. I get where you are coming from, I do. It's a bit overboard though man.

    We would all be better to give ourselves a moment before we react.

    Who is defending anyone? He was being thankful for a clarification.

    I again only clarified to show posts can easily be misread and reactions can be easily over had.

    It starts with the innitial negativity.
    Until that is addressed, the fallout shouldn't be a factor.

    And if a person is sooo stubborn they cant say you know. I feel my snark wasn't out of line, but i apologize if you felt i insulted you with my deserving nothing more comment,

    then this would have all been over with too.

    Im not the only stubborn one here but almost always accused of as the only stubborn one.
    When that changes, ill change.

    Its funny how someone else can start negativity, but all the responsibility to not let it escalate is on the recipient of negativity. Not on the one spreading such negativity.


    But we all see things differently i suppose…

    I think both of you were misunderstood.

    So, you were saying there should be weight classes like in boxing for all sports. I don't think that would work. We can have a conversation on why if you like, but it's not important to my point here.

    You used the special Olympics as an analogy. It was bad analogy sorry. Again We can go into that too if you'd like.

    Your take on changing the process of competition to better fit trans people was taken as being discriminatory in trying to divide trans people from other competitors. I would still like clarification from you and Hoop on those posts.

    Minstrel reacted. He used sarcasm, because he thought it was ridiculous to advocate such discriminatory divisions.

    Could he have asked for clarification yes. And, he should have seeing he was critical that you didn't provide further reasoning behind your idea. If he wanted a more comprehensive reasoning he should have asked for clarification.

    I don't know how to be anything other than the straight talking asshole. If I snark it's probably by accident... unless I really mean it. :tongue:

    Well me personally i prefer to give people the benefit of the doubt before i judge them a bigot or discriminating against anything.
    More than happy to continue it, but not here. not gonna subjugate myself to hasty judgements without being provided the benefit of the doubt and asked to clarify.

    im one of the most non bigoted, accepting of all people, there are here. Because a person is brainstorming a conversation does not mean they have made a final analysis on thier opinion. Or thier “ nonthought out” post doesnt need a bit of direction without labeling it as not worthy of anything more than snark.
