    Harmonious disagreement

    and why is the internet all out of it?

    You know when you're talking to somebody IRL (a few might have to wrack their memories for such an occasion) and you disagree, then just go oh yeh, and carry on with the conversation, or start taking the piss if the opportunity arises, or maybe even start a factual reasoned discussion; I mean it's vary rare we get punched in the face for talking. How come every time on the internet it turns into some dick measuring contest (or the female equivalent, gash measuring?).

    Is it that anonymity turns people into assholes? Or is it just misinterpretations getting out of hand?









    PS, cry me a river, tiny violins, and HTFU; I got there first, so go fuck yourselves

    Do you consider the female with the biggest gash the winner or the loser???

    On those rare occasions when you did get punched or someone had to step in to prevent the punch being thrown, those are the arseholes on the internet. In life you just avoided saying stuff in their company, if you couldn't avoid their company that is, now they just see a thread and jump in and no-one can stop them pressing the enter key.
    Also a piss take that might come with a smirk in real life or a note of sarcasm in the voice is just text, if lucky it comes with a emotocon but that too can be misunderstood.

    It's easier to avoid spending time in the company of complete wankers IRL.

    I'm the opposite... Online I am a total gentleman, and will show respect and consideration to even the most hostile poster. Online I believe in equality of all voices and opinions, to the degree that I would take into account your personal history which has influenced your point of view. I say thank yu and please when it is appropriate.

    You do know that your friends are lying about that?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
