1. Unrec

Needlessly provocative

[Ocelot II]

2. What are you referring to? I think your brush is kind of broad..

[zuul]

3. Care to elaborate?

[Anon-C]

6. Without elaboration and just from your gut response...

...am I correct, at least about people in general?

[zuul]

20. Are you asking if I agree with your statement that people take pleasure in other's misfortune?

No, I don't agree. Not about people in general and certainly not about DUers specifically.

And if your going to start such a contentious OP, maybe you should provide some context.

Otherwise, it begs the question: If you are unhappy at DU and you believe that people "take pleasure in other's misfortune" why would you want to keep posting here?

4. I think it's your screen name.

[Anon-C]

16. That window you had to change it,yet another Cosmic

Opportunity missed by me. Always in doubt.

[True Dough]

5. I can't speak for anybody else

but I'm a jerk, through and through! It's just my nature.

[Anon-C]

10. True.

You have what I used to think was excellent company. As a Jerk (Wild and Crazy!), how can someone not be the same target of a wall of spitballs, in this case spitballs of an adult nature, coming at me from all directions in my life.

[TheRealNorth]

7. Some people earn it.

It's called karma.

[LakeArenal]

8. ✔️

[Anon-C]

11. Is that what has me, Car Ma?

[Laffy Kat]

9. Is there a particular post you're referring to?

[Triloon]

12. Oh I dunno ...

Maybe it's similar to how you take pleasure in shaking your finger at strangers and trying to shame them for harmless natural behaviors?

[Anon-C]

13. Like masterbation?

[Ocelot II]

19. We do not shame masturbation; we celebrate it.

How else can you be sure you're having sex with someone who loves you?

[Anon-C]

24. Come on!

[Ocelot II]

26. Well, isn't that the whole idea?

[Anon-C]

29. I'm really confused and broken sexually.

And sure, posts and mindsets such as this do not help. I am DAP , if you catch my acronym.

[Ocelot II]

30. I'm afraid I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

I don't mean to be negative but what you're saying is so cryptic that I don't know how to respond. So I guess I won't after this so as to avoid any further unintended insult.

[Anon-C]

31. I understand, and I am sorry I gave an impression

That I was offended, I am not. As for the cryptic nature of my post, sure.

[Triloon]

22. Yeah, I like masturbation ok,

It can be useful, similar to using complete sentences.

[SergeStorms]

14. You're painting with an awfully broad brush.

If there are some specific instances, please, point them out.

If not, you're definitely barking up the wrong tree. There's more compassion and love for others on DU than on any other website I've visited.

[Anon-C]

18. I agree, there is. And so it hurts to gauge whether folks are reading

Trolling or just plain don't like me. I know it's overly broad, I don't even think it's representative. But again I notice that most folks "get it", just not me, so I am here looking for feedback.

[LakeArenal]

15. Who is this YOU you speak of?

If I experience schadenfreude it’s because of some past experiences.

Not into laughing at people suffering.

[3auld6phart]

17. ..??

What are you going on about ?

[Anon-C]

32. I'm upset with myself.

I don't know how to go forward. So same ole.

[hlthe2b]

21. Casting a pretty wide net, are you not?

I've seen a lot of compassion here directed towards DUers and absolute strangers in the world or news. Perhaps a bit toward you and me as well?

Think on it, please.

[FreepFryer]

25. A person who thinks this kind of post is appropriate is likely to experience community negativity.

Self fulfilling prophecy.

Change the lens to change the view.

[Anon-C]

27. I appreciate your opinion and I accept it's accurate.

Thank you.

[FreepFryer]

28. You're welcome! Hope you start seeing better behavior here. (Nt)
