If I see someone doing something moronic, I might just call them a moron. Reason being: a moron is someone who does moronic things. Therefore, the best word to use in that situation is 'moron'. Sure, I could say, "John, this is moronic," but what if I don't know John's name? Then what? "Hey moron! Get out of the way! There's a truck coming!" If John was to pout about the fact I just called him a moron, he'd die. I tried to help the moron, you see? It's not a bad word. Not even a little bit. If the same moron stopped doing moronic things and converted over to doing smart things, I might just call him genius. That is also a name. I could say, "Hey genius! Get out of the way! There's a truck coming!" That might make him happy, but I'm being dishonest with him, and he's focusing on the fact someone just called him a genius; then the truck hits him, because he didn't listen to the rest, he was too busy feeling good about himself. Does that make sense?
Hey, Person with a hysterical sense of humor! I thought of our discussion the other night while I was dusting this off. :) I might have been a bit intense.
Glad to see you.
Ah yes. I could have said, "Hey person, you're about to die!" But then everyone freaks out and thinks I have a bomb when really I'm just trying to save a moron from getting hit by a truck.
I'll be honest, I didn't really read much of what you said over there(I stayed out of your arguments). I just assumed you were saying all the same things you usually say(about that topic). I called two-faced people two-faced. That's all. Shit happens.
Yeah, you didn't miss much other than I had a rare bout of temper which I regretted.
I think it's normal to be human sometimes. I think part of the reason why so many choose to consciously decide to be offended over petty things like words is because they've been conditioned to bottle everything up. They snap. Naturally acting out is frowned upon. They even make pills to stop it. I don't buy that medicine.
No. Unless I need to go to the bathroom or something.
