To some degree, but I think that someone like JD who is constantly abusive shouldn't even say anything, let alone going to the physical threat level that he did. I hardly think there is a soul here with the stuff to call me a hypocrite, since hypocrisy seems to abound, IMHO. I don't think I've abused him at all since his normal tone is to abuse continuously anybody and everybody, and he has abused me verbally in my eyes quite a few times before, I thought he'd take the terms STFU as normal usage.
 Look at JD's overreaction to something I didn't really intend to be specific, as a clear example. Actually, what I wrote I meant it to myself, more than anything, since it's really late at night and I was feeling phylosophical.

Pot Kettle Black go around the table a lot. Pointing fingers isn't going to serve any purpose.

Write a song, play drums or something. Who said I was talking about you? Aren't you a little egocentric here? Though you do make a valid point, going to the lengths of threatening with physical harm is going overboard, don't you think so? Why is talking about peace and Jesus such a big deal to you...why is that?  If you have such a lousy boss that you feel the need to burden everybody that reads your crap with your frustrations, then change your life, get a different job. Nobody here cares about my frustrations, so I change and stop that behavior. Why shouldn't you? If you are really really wanting an opportunity to punch my face, why don't we get together and sort it out? I'll buy you a beer for your courage. So STFU, please. There, I was polite.      J.D. DIAMOND wrote: Where AmI wrote:  Mutual respect goes a long way to avoid conflict and escalation of conflict.  LOL! Are you kidding me? (LOL!) This is coming from the same guy that jumped in the "something pissing you off thread"....and blatenly  told me to   "shut the fuck up" about my frustrations dealing with my boss at work(whom is a total asshole that everybody would agree if I had time to explain it)??? I never said one thing to you, "ever"...nor said one thing about you 'EVER"...and you pop in and tell none other than 'ME" to "shut the fuck up" out of nowhere and you want to tell these people about "mutual respect" and how it goes a long way to avoid conflict and most importantly "escalation of conflict ....after you popped your fat lazy ass in and talk shit to me? What the FUCK was that then asshole? That PROVES your a walking "contradiction". Maybe its "YOU who needs to "shut the fuck up" and think about what you post before you open up your big fat mouth that I would punch if you said it to my face which you wouldn't have balls to do anyways,so in the future....learn how to shut your military mouth dumbshit.  Payback is a bitch isn't it?    (Quoting Message by Where AmI from Thursday, August 27, 2009 3:41:54 AM)   Where AmI wrote:   I think we can change everything about ourselves, inside out. I believe that hope makes us come up to the top when despair makes us reach a bottom. Life is constantly changing. Otherwise we can't adapt to what is thrown at us or get what we seek out of life. Jesus is a religious figure and I'm not very religious, but he made some very good points about human nature and relationships that I quite agree with. Mutual respect goes a long way to avoid conflict and escalation of conflict.  Edited at: Thursday, August 27, 2009 3:54:12 AM Edited at: Thursday, August 27, 2009 3:54:57 AM
