I'm pretty sure those people wrote out their thoughts expecting a response. While my original post was a joke, the core belief itself was not, and that was what was being questioned.yeah that's what i was vaguely getting at; the statement wasn't a complete jape, the joke acted as a vehicle for a real statement, and so it started a discussion. but since that kind of thing is what started it, it was off on a bad foot to begin with
is this supposed to be a negative statement?http://www.pewforum.org/religious-landscape-study/political-ideology/
because 16 is old enough to make a decision on religion (rhyme not intended)
and "liberal" isn't an insult, neither is "conservative" or "socialist" etc
or maybe i just misinterpreted it in which case carry on
In hindsight, you're exactly right. But nobody sits there and deeply thinks out everything they say, and as such there's no way to know which are gonna randomly set off the BLF hate-squad. It seems a lot more reasonable to just expect everyone not to overreact and understand that jokes are not serious.i think the point where it starts being serious is where you actually begin to take on discussion. if you had said at the time "yeah dw guys it was a joke no worries" this might have turned out differently, though it doesn't seem like you intended the initial comment to be a complete joke
Maybe you're right, but I've always seen a winky-face as a sign that someone is being playful.guess it depends a lot on the person, but i would generally associate it with cheeky nonsense. and as always, language is highly dependent on context
"guess your just not good enough to join" "guess your just not good enough ;)"
One of these is a lot more richardish.
Except nearly every time someone mentions they are vegan or vegetarian, no matter who or where it is, this will happen.there's a time and place for everything, and i think it just wasn't really relevant in this topic, especially when it's being argued from a moral standpoint. people probably don't feel great about the idea of having to feel bad for eating food they've been eating their entire life without stigma; it's not a very compelling argument and it'll almost certainly only provoke people regardless of the situation
Users write stuff like "another reason to switch to pc/mac/linux/xbox/ps" all the time. Nobody cares then, but god forbid a vegan post.the smiley face is definitely a major part of the reason why it set people off. it makes it less viable to interpret as a joke and a lot more viable to interpret as a snarky, semi-pretentious drive-by statement in a context where it'd be flippant and unprompted. anyone who would speak with that cadence in a situation like that would attract negative attention. people do get stuff all the time for saying things like "get a new PC" or "switch to windows" when people have computer problems, but at least it's semi-relevant, it's just unhelpful and dumb
It's because nobody is insecure about their console, but loads of people are insecure about their diets. I don't know why.
