[@SleepingSilence] You have this habit of being passive aggressive when you're trying to drop something. You have to be aware you're doing it, right? Is that the thing? You dangle a piece of bait wrapped around the notion of 'Well let's just drop it okay' which is a pretty suspect thing to do. You should maybe stop doing that. If nothing else it'll make you seem like a more willing participant in a discussion like this instead of someone who drops the victim card as soon as your side is challenged back. For the record, I [i]did[/i] read your second paragraph. It doesn't excuse or overwrite the first paragraph. For the second record, [quote=@SleepingSilence] Someone who enjoys to bait me, baited me. [/quote] You weren't baited. You literally did the thing I mentioned in my first paragraph here. For the third record, this isn't semantics. [quote]It can't be passive aggressive, because it wasn't even directed at anyone specifically. <.<[/quote] [quote=I Posted This]"I held the door open for a female type once and she didn't say thank you. What a cunt. They don't want a generous guy like me." [/quote] [quote=You Posted This]It can't be passive aggressive, because it wasn't even directed at anyone specifically. <.<[/quote] [quote=You Posted This Too]That statement (in red) is passive aggressive[/quote] Why is mine passive aggressive but yours not? Yours, of course, being [quote]I saw a lot of strawman walking on by, so I clearly missed nothing[/quote] Now we're gonna get into semantics. But my comment didn't reference or allude to anyone specifically in this thread but rather a broad stroke joke at the expense of a specific type of group. You implied that people posting in this thread frequently do little more than strawman. You might not have named any names specifically but because your comment specifically mentioned you peeking into [i]this thread[/i] it implies that you're talking about people that post here regularly. You don't have to name names for it to come off as passive aggressive bullshit which is why Dynamo did the whole thing of, you know, suggesting you don't do that. On the whole your particular manner of posting tends to color discussions with you a particular way. Which is why I'd really suggest you tone down the whole stuff like this: [quote]If you actually read my paragraph long comment, it would've been clear. [...] And if this somehow become 6 different replies in my inbox, I'll be done discussing with you as well. [...] Now back to anime. Have a good rest of your afternoon.[/quote] Since we're all generally civil here and stuff like this just makes you come off as, well, as kind of a passive aggressive douche. For clarification, I'm [i]not[/i] calling you that.
