Just as well... I think there should be a solution to everything. If people could talk to and understand one another, perhaps things wouldn't be so disconnected.
Inaction is often the first resort when it should be the last. Or at least, that is how I feel. I'll continue to try and opt for understanding in future encounters, as I have in past ones as well.
Until then, I suppose we are not ready yet.
LoL, well if people could talk to each other and understand one another without someone getting emotional, hurt, or pissed about the discussion, yeah the world would be a much better place. I long for that world. Hell, that's one of the reasons why people need to NOT get bothered by what others say. Honestly, how can you have an honest and understanding conversation with someone if you have to watch what you say to avoid hurting someone's feelings? Plus again, how can one know what will upset someone and what won't? Making a joke about someone who plays Easy Mode might not upset one gamer and it might upset another. So how do you know? The answer is, you don't know. It's not defeatist. It's just life. Some things in life have no logical answer or reason behind them.
