Also, I’ve never met a hacker that was nearly as hot as Remi Malik.
Ok, so I’ve definitely heard this before, so he’s really hot then?
I guess I see it, he has perhaps a model-like facial structure. But he’s always so off-putting when he speaks, I just can’t think of him as attractive.
Perhaps my perception is muddled by the characters he plays.
Superconducting magnets… superconductors are one of those areas where science gets weird.
I’m glad that age has given me the comfort to tell people when I just don’t know, and therefore, don’t have an opinion on some things.
Yeah it certainly seems to me that as people get older they tend to have fewer shits to give in general. What’s funny about it, is that while that sounds like a bad thing, it’s often a pretty good thing. It means people are more confident, confident enough to show humility, and to say what they actually think.
If people were never extraordinarily wrong about things, we’d have nothing to argue about on the Internet. What a blessing!
I guess the question is how often do you realize that you’re actually on the wrong side of that argument, it definitely happens. And then what do you do next? Dig your heels in, double down and keep arguing? Or acknowledge the realization, make a concession or even apology?
Evidently, it can be hard to be a decent person (hard for all of us), when anonymity means there are no personal consequences to being a dick.
Yeah, it’s this.
Oh man, it’s so disappointing that people would downvote such a classy post. I mean, you found a polite way to say “I don’t want to have an argument”, and someone would down vote that?! Wild.
Right now you’re being a dick to someone, not the other way around. I just wanted to point that out, that he was being polite, explaining his point of view, and you’re basically suggesting he’s just to dumb to understand. That’s mean.
You could try smiling at people, making eye contact. If they quickly turn away, let them go, if they look back at you, you could say “hi”. It’s not exactly letting them come to you, but it’s also not at all aggressive or harassing, it’s just saying “hi”.
If you’ve already noticed something interesting about them, you could mention it. For instance, “those are cool earrings!” or “I love your t-shirt!”, or “What a cute dog! What’s their name?” If you’re insightful and actually noticed something they think is interesting about themselves, they might be inclined to strike up a conversation about it.
Ok, Toph is just one of the best characters in fiction, she’s fantastic! And yeah, that totally counts.
