[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 9099824, member: 6704184"] You’re either reading emotionality into a post that has very little, or trying to push buttons (bc so many incorrectly think that emotions are character flaws, or at least less valuable than logic, and get offended by such implications). I am always coming from a place of believing that emotion is more valuable than pure logic, but that both are necessary to fully understand anything, but I’m not especially emotional here. Especially in the post you’re quoting. Just in case, you can see the parts where I’m replying to Parmandur and mamba, yes? If not due to someone’s use of the ignore function I will point them out so you know what was actually in reply to you and what wasn’t. Either way, if I have to guess, you are reading emotion into the last part? I would have thought that part was pretty obviously not particularly serious, what with the references to emojis and the general silliness of the whole thing, but maybe not. If you’re instead referring to the beginning, I said “the thing people are getting mad about” instead of “the thing you’re mad about” for a reason. Mostly, to avoid calling out someone I knew I was very close to putting on ignore. Your posts are more derisive than angry, which I also don’t really understand and find to be a bit much, but they are rather different things. If I’m still missing what you mean when you reference points you never made, feel free to point it out, and if I can see what you mean I’ll apologize or at least explain why I inferred something you apperently didn’t intend from your statements.
