Anyone getting tired of high and mighty DUers?
Edited on Sun Aug-08-04 12:15 AM by HEyHEY
Who think they're so fucking smart, and enjoy passing judgement on other DUers and strutting around like their shit don't stink? I was just checking out the site today, readin' the posts. there's some people here that really need to be shoved in a locker and pissed on.

Just an observation.

Mods, lock away

I must add, this is NOT related to any thread or incident

5. Well, it's silly
I saw threads where people literally pass judgement on their fellow DUers, calling them dumb and things like that. Just narrow minded gits.

2. Yeah. If they disagree then disagree.
They don't have to get all pissy about it.

Calling someone ignorant or dishonest always wins the arguement?

3. You should really try not to be so judgemental
and impatient and intolerant.

Shame, shame, shame...

4. I Don't Mind It When
I don't mind the high and mighty when they agree with me. I think they're abrasive but their heart is in the right place. However, when they disagree with me, why they can go straight to hell!

28. That'd be a neat trick. Laugh !
If I knew how to do it, I would be either very feared or popular...but the spell would have to be reversable.

Totally agree with ya
We should just agree to disagree. We should be able to engage in a civilized and intellectual discussion without resorting to name-calling or character asassination.

32. I got a PM chiding me for being "disingenuously" positive
and agreeable. Suspicious. I think the person who sent it wanted to pick a fight. I always wonder why anyone would take positive debate so personally - especially when most people on DU go to great lengths to keep from indulging in personal attacks.
