Re: The chronopsychologist speaks again
actually that was the first time I saw what you wrote
What? With regards to what?
In the future people don't mind have jokes about them.
Oh dear, oh dear. I've got a friend who is the co-owner and mod of another board. she's goping for her PhD in Psychology, and recently posted a list of 5 classic excuses used by people, why they don't work logically, or as excuses and made them relevent to the board that she owns. Let me just quote two of them here, both of which you've just invoked. I'm not entirely sure of the rules here regarding bad language, so I'll censor some words:
2. Supposed Humor - "I was just kidding" It's easy to say whatever the hell you want and then just put a smilie face at the end saying you're "just kidding". But that doesn't really work, especially if your intent was mean-spirited and not really helpful to the person in question. Also being frustrated at your target because they "can't take a joke" is childish and putting the blame on someone else. Which leads to:
3. Blaming the Victim - "He deserved it" Of course the only reason why you were so horrible and mean was because that person was just SO DUMB that he deserved to be kicked in the *****. It's not because you are a hateful person, they just deserve the treatement they get. How ridiculous. It's not that hard to be nice to a person who doesn't understand something. Give people a chance before roasting them over the coals.
In other words, it's a weak excuse, which is clearly valueless. I suppose, however, the the childish route is the one I should have expected you to take.
Anyway, I thought you said that in the duture you only joked about aliens, and that we wouldn't understand your humour in this time line? Yes, I may be gay in your estimation, but my memory works just fine. That's another contradiction we can add to your score.
we still accept people for who they are.
It's just that being called gay is an insult, huh? How is that accepting? That's homophobic.
sometimes insulting people can be good but not always.
Are we talking about the issues of personal boundries? I don't believe that this will have changed in the future. I've got black friends that I can call any ethnic slur under the sun. However, I'd not be stupid enough to call a black stranger any names. There are certain things that you earn. I don't believe that that will have changed in the future, and I certainly don't think you believed that we were on chummy terms so that you could insult me willy-nilly and it's all be a good laugh.
No, you deliberately tried to insult me using a homophobic slur, and no amout of after-the-fact, weak justification is going to alter that. You have two choices, really. You can be mature, apologise and acknowledge that you were wrong to say that (and do not give me any of your twaddle about cultural differences, be a man and take full responsability for yourself), or you can keep flapping about scrabbling for lame excuses to try to cover your actions.
I forgot that in this time people are too stressed and get mad over anything.
I am neither stressed nor mad. I don't have a high enough opinion of your or your opinions to be offended by anything you might say, and even if I did, as I've said, I wouldn't consider that an insult in any case.
I'm merely pointing out that homophobic jibes aren't exactly good debating tools, and that all you've done is paint yourself as an even bigger fool than you already have, and you've added malice and intolerance to your repatoire. I don't care if you're a homophobe, it just makes you an unpleasent and small-minded individual.
There is nothing wrong with being gay. gay people are just normal people. they are as strong as anyone else
They're just as strong, eh? If there's nothing wrong with it, then why would it be an insult?
Grow up, and stop making excuses for yourself.
