I have a few sparagus

Not too many, though.

I'm sorry if sparagus offend you, but these sparagus are PRICED TO SELL.

EVERYTHING MUST GO.

Really, do you have to be an ass about it? Are you honestly so offended that I would deign to ask you to please not disrespect real problems that people address in this forum? Really, are you so immature that you can't just be respectful in that ONE aspect?

I don't understand it. I really don't. I tried to be polite about the entire situation, but really, this is ridiculous.

Are you so easily offended that a topic about my sparagus, WHICH ARE PRICED TO SELL!, is something that you will attempt to insult me over?

I don't honestly understand the question of respect. I respect plenty of things. I am somehow disrespecting someone? I don't know that an absence of respect for your decisions even counts as disrespect, in this situation - I accept them as equally pretentious as your belief that I am somehow mocking someone.

I made a topic with a similar title. I thought it was a funny sounding word. If anyone is somehow offended by that, I wouldn't be surprised that they were offended by my finding humor in anything ever, as their offense is entirely up to whatever fancy that takes them at that moment in time.

Again, no problem with the topic, rather the location. The joke or meme forum would have been fine.

I'd say I consider it disrespectful when you purposefully go out of you way to belittle my decision to move a topic, and then act out in an attempt to make me angry.

It disappoints me even more that you are a person who is my friend (or I at least considered a friend, with good reason too) and yet when I do something that is not meant to intentionally offend you, but is something I deem to be appropriate given the circumstance and situation, and you rebel and deride further.

I don't want to have this fight with you - I really don't. But sometimes, it seems like you like to stir up ****, and I'd appreciate it if you would please stop. That's all.

You're taking everything so personally, ZG. I'm not trying to fight with you, or anyone else. In fact, I just argue with people when it seems they want an argument, because that's the sort of conversation they bring about. Messageboards = talking, right?

I'm sorry if I've hurt you, for certain. I was sure that everyone knew about my history of participation at VGF, but I am somehow now involved in complex forum politic? I'm kind of just an outspoken joker, and I am empathetic to many. If I wanted to hurt anyone on this board directly, I would generally be much more abrasive.

You don't have to be abrasive to hurt someone. You of all people should know that.

AI, like I said, I was offended by your topic being here. This is where I come to talk about serious problems that I have with my life, and your topic "I have Aburger" being here was offensive to people who actually have Aspergers such as myself when it's in a serious forum. If you want to make fun of us, don't do it in this forum. -CSM

I think I've deduced it--Aspergers involves being unable to pick up social cues, like sarcasm....


...Hence when AI is trying to explain he's just being silly, people effected by it don't realize or take that for real and continue to be mad. That said, then there's other people who are pro-sensitivity who also argue against it.

Being indifferent altogether, I simply ask people try to find a common ground rather than dig the trenches between eachother deeper.

Well yeah, that's the idea. Since they claim to have this disorder, that clearly states they have trouble with understanding humour, they're not "meant" to get it because of their condition in the first place. ...Nice circle, indeed.
