Er… I guess that depends what you mean by “verbally attack.” Yeah, people seem to be interchangeably intimidated and unimpressed with my knowledge.
Verbally attack- belittle. Make them feel like they are small. Bully.
You do none of those things. You debate in a logical manner.
Find the best way to use your knowledge. Arguing with strangers on the Internet may not be the best way (mind you Kevin and what’s his face argue a lot)
What my momma would tell me is “remember who’s child you are”. You are representing your parents. Act like it. If you are, then continue. If you aren’t, then adjust and move on.
You’re a great guy. Insanely smart. Gotta work on people skills a little (I’m sorry I’m blunt), but that doesn’t make you a bully.
Whose*
You’re a great guy, Josiah. I stand behind that statement.
Not everyone is as well versed as you are in the same topics you are. I can out talk you in taxes. If I do, it doesn’t mean I’m belittling you. Yes I can do it in a way that involves calling you rude names, but that is different. If you wanna argue/debate about taxes. It’s on like donkey kong. Frankly, I know more about it than you.
If someone wishes to debate with you about history. Stand your ground, state your peace, counter some points with fact and not opinion, and then move on. Don’t let it consume your life. It’s healthy to debate. It’s not healthy to fight (verbally or physically)
You are great. I have a ton of respect for you.
Yeah… but you don’t usually completely tick me off.
Haha, it’s true, my people skills are pretty darn bad.
“Usually”? I’ll take it. I ticked people off at work today because our office hours don’t suit their needs. I’m sorry. Can’t help with that.
I’m used to people being ticked off at me. But the only thing I’ve debated with you about (full on debated) was m***. And that is not as important to you as history.
Just because your people skills aren’t “up to par” with other people’s, doesn’t make you bad. Work on it. Practice. You have come a long way since the first kerfuffle. It’s beautiful to watch. Like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon.
Actually, I don’t recall you ever completely ticking me off.
If you say so. 😀
I can’t do this anywhere private, because SOMEONE *looks at you* refuses to get fb.
But you are great. You are growing. You’ve come far and will continue to grow more (if you make some witty comment about your height, I may come up there and slap your arm!!). I’m blessed to have you as an Internet friend.
I’m glad I haven’t completely ticked you off. I enjoy our playful bickering. Reminds me of my siblings and I. You don’t tick me off. You irritate me your wit sometimes. But it’s more of a facepalm irritation than like a “I never wanna talk to this person again” irritiation.
Why would I make some witty comment about my height?
(Sorry, I need to go to bed.)
Because you are full of wit and sarcasm and I said that you are still growing
Ah. You’re still taller than me. Barely.
I am going to bed as well.
Goodnight, josiah! I hope you sleep well
I grew a tiny sliver. But you are growing so fast!! You’ll catch up and surpass me!
I was going to bed, but then I came up with an idea and I didn’t want to forget it. What if we wrote a song about the Aux Cable? We could all contribute lyrics, and then someone with musical talent could write the tune and play/sing it on some instrument (maybe multiple people). Idk. It could be a parody, I guess, but I think it’d be more special if it was our own song.
(Also, Carrot, I completely agree with Kristen. You are a really cool person, and this forum would not be as awesome without you. Your wittiness may be sometimes aggravating, but it still makes me smile. And my people skills aren’t great either, so you’re not alone in that.)
I probably should have made that as two posts. Oh well. Goodnight, anyone who’s still awake (which is probably no one).
I’m going to skip back to previous comments for a sec… Kristen, I said audio quality annoys me, but that doesn’t mean that you couldn’t do it if you don’t have a mic. It would be relatively unprofessional, so I’m really not worried about everybody having a good mic. I was mostly saying that audio quality annoys me to imply that I might potentially have a slightly better ear than some.
Could we use…
Autotune?… 😉
Oh wow, I completely forgot about that. 😀
MOM GET THE CAMERA I USED AN INNER SIDE JOKE…
Inner Side Joke? That’s a Not-forum joke…
I just ordered a camera.
Also, it’s cow appreciation day. Break out the black and white
And it’s slurpee day at 7-11!!!
Gettin’ all the free stuff
Cool. Are you still out of potential fake podcast? If so, that’s fine, I just don’t want to not include you for merely not having a good mic.
I…will probably pass this time. Just because I am about to start working on 67 hours of school.
I would love to help in any way though. Can’t actually record. But if you need help rallying or planning or anything (if this is what we are doing). I have audio editing software on my laptop. I can draw stuff if we need that. Just let me know.
If this is what we are gonna do, I’m all for it!! I will stand behind it 100%. Let me know how I can help
I may ask my mom. Idk. I don’t really enjoy my voice. And I talk over people a lot
Okeydokey, that’s totally fine. I’ll see what the people in the Twitter chat think, and we can go from there. I’m sure whatever you do will be very helpful!
