Ummm. ...for some reason? How many gun barrels of hair-trigger borderline personality disorders do you have to suck on before you taste bitterness? Jeez. Hey, I know, let's blame the poor bastard who slipped on the banana peel, chalked it up to some unkown offender's youthful phase, and shared the moment. It must be his fault.
Yeah, I started a thread, and you STARTED to read it. At least I can admit where I went wrong with generalizations. But, you didn't read that far, and still apparently are going to keep posting anyway. You're stereotyping an entire thread now.Translation: You're bitter at 20 year old women. So you started a thread to say so.
Who cares? Why slam 20 year olds here? Here's a thought - why not just not date them?
If you don't expect to be called out for sterotyping an entire group, you are very naive for 40 (or however old you are).
No, that would not be ok, and you know it, and you know that's certainly not what happened here either. But have fun. Anyway, your jokes were great and constructive medicine. Contrary to your own style, I offer that compliment to you with an open hand and no sarcasm.on a serious note...
if i had an arguement with a gay guy, put it down to his gayness & posted a rant against gays?
or blacks?
that'd be ok by some people's reasoning?
And you were right. Though upon better information, you might also revise or qualify your generalization by calling it "counter-ageism." There's no shame in revising or explaining one's point of view. We're on the planet to learn and grow old...i would do my best to lightly point it out.:wink:
i do not dig drama.
i was the first one that said this is ageism.
Yeah, started bitching, and handled the blow back well. Many of us came away with some positive insights and harmonious understandings, across age groups. But you, too, missed that part. Hardly a rant. What Dennis Miller does is rant. I wrote a few sentences. Then people became paranoid for a while. In our age of over-priced health care, illegible scripts, and quick fix prescriptions, apparently a few sentences are all some people need before they stop listening and start prognosticating. The part of my most recent post that you quote is exactly how much you read of it. My advice is that people reserve sweeping judgments in responding to discouraged, over-generalized, touchy subject threads. Yeah, mine. Or shoot first and read threads later. The cognoscenti of any age or gender will likely notice.You're the OP who started bitching about 20 year old girls, live with it.
handled the blow back well.
Dude, you really don't like to read, and willfully refuse. I will no longer take the bate. My last effort to help you out here: if you HAD read my reply to Katchanski - you would know that my lack of circumspection and hasty treatment, especially in the unfair title of this thread, did not escape me PREVIOUS to being 'called out.' But, I guess you just need to be right. So, go on. Be right. Start your own righteous thread. You love to be right more than I do, as you'll soon learn from my silence in the face of your blind indictments, generalities, and lack of readership.O RLY?
You only "admit(ted) where (you) went wrong with generalizations" AFTER you had been called out for generalizing.
:smile: You tell her sister!You're right. Thanks to experience, it's often better.
*clack clack*
You can always tell the insipid 20 year old trolls by their DEVO tattoos. :biggrin1: Nothing like a nice big target for my 40 yr. old myopic eyes. :tongue:(Banisters loads her 12) Trolls, you say - how interesting.
I quite agree SP.thank god all 20 year olds aren't like that, I can't be the only one who's thinking what a jumped up little shite that kid is

Sounds like the OP is suffering from a severe case of sour grapes, for some reason. Possibly due to an interaction with poster #2, given the instantly heated nature of their interaction here.

Well put, wldhoney. I agree with you.
Well said wldhoney, you're looking like you're going to be a great addition to the site
