Halo Stickman Posted 18 March, 2015 Share Posted 18 March, 2015 Oh I'm very calm!! Again, things getting lost in translation. Just trying to explain that she shouldn't judge people by what they write on this forum, think that's a good piece of advice! Jeff, the question as to how much someone can, or should, judge a person by what they write on a forum would probably make for an interesting discussion. Why don't you start a separate thread, because, as Patrick says, this thread is interesting enough as it stands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 18 March, 2015 Share Posted 18 March, 2015 And not at all patronising to a woman in her mid 30s. Just like this post wasn't sarcastic. To be fair, she's judging the way I live my life by what is written on this forum, she's pretty new to the forum, so i don't see what's patronising about it. Just a bit of advice.

Coxford_lou Posted 18 March, 2015 Share Posted 18 March, 2015 I think the strange thing is that you seem to judge people's lives based on what they write on this forum, which is a bit weird. I assume you don't believe that Bearsy is actually a bear, so why do you believe that everyone else is exactly the way they write. Also a lot can be lost in translation, especially as you can't read someones body language (which obviously brings a lot to a conversation). In 'real' life I'm a good laugh, and am very much into my comedy, but that's not what I come on here for. I come on here to find out news about my football team, to debate issues 'du jour' and to get advice. Lucky I don't come on here for comedy because there are very few funny people on here (based on what is written). What I am trying to say is, don't judge people by what they write on this forum, and certainly don't think you know what their life is like by what is written - a lot of people would be very different if you met them in real life. But aren't you judging me by assuming I'm judging you? But seriously, I'm assuming there's something I'm doing that you're reacting to, and I don't mean to come across like that. I think you're a fairly complex person (who isn't?) but not knowing you, I make no attempt to try and understand. My general approach to this forum (and life) is to take it as it comes. When someone is nice to me, I'm nice back. When someone is mean, I take the p*ss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
