If this is true, then by what measure have you decided that you are right, to then complain about the behaviors of others? That seems like an objective judgement on your part.

If logic can be used to justify anything, then why are you more justified to call them spiders and lizards and dips**ts than they are to use slang? Why do you get to judge them so, despite the fact that you dislike being judged, even when it a "positive judgement" - or what most people call a "compliment".

Simply pointing out the fact that "just cos everyone does it doesn't mean it's right" is a very flimsy defense against the possibility that you might in fact be in the wrong here.

Do you really not see the one-sided nature of your behavior? "Everything is subjective and logic could justify anything" - yet you angrily lash out at the world as though you're objectively right, and everyone else is wrong.

What's particularly ironic is your own use of slang, while complaining about the use of slang.

"logic could be used to justify anything."

the solar system contains more defendants convicted of felonies, than winners of Nobel Prize. the activity with more participants, not always morally superior.


How does that address what I said?

I said for your own well-being this is a poor choice of hill to die on, the ratio of felons to Nobel Prize winners doesn't change that or do anything to make you less miserable.

most precious lil "people" might think "can you", "huh", "bro", "buddy", and manipulative/vague/judgmental/condescending slang is fine with them. but just b/c those precious lil "people" outnumber and overpower (and sometimes outsmart) me, does not "prove" that they are "right" or morally justified or logical or superior to me, for that reason, or any other reason


There is no right way or wrong way to speak, but there are costs to your emotional well-being when you allow how other people speak to upset you.

Getting upset over how regular people talk costs you a lot emotionally, while providing you with zero benefits. Being bitter and resentful all the time hurts you, it doesn't hurt the people you're angry with and it doesn't improve anything.

It's hard to understand why you choose to play life on a harder difficulty than you need to because your posts are about 95% complaining about how hard things are, how exhausted you are, etc, but you never seem willing to rethink some of the conflicts in your life.

Instead of disengaging from some battles you just passive-aggressively vent about them on here.

When people offer advice you engage in contrarian pretzel logic to refute their advice instead of seeming to make any attempts at implementing it. You also detail doing this to people in real life who offer help and/or advice.

It's like coming on here to complain about a sore face, while also making a big display of punching yourself in the face and getting upset with people who tell you maybe you should stop punching yourself. At some point it starts to feel like you're not interested in help/advice/doing anything to make things better, and instead just want to do some attention seeking with zero interest in improving the situation.
