OT of OT: Rating Fyron -- no longer possible

[Fyron]

Actually, if you sit back and read this whole thread in a comfy chair with a cold towel on your head, it is quite disturbing.

I think that picture is more disturbing than this whole thread.

Fyron, I dont mean any disrespect but from a independant viewing, you do come across as an angry young man with an axe to grind.

Thats about as far from the truth as you can get.

Is this because you have lived for so long with the threat of armaggedon vis a vis Alta Loma disappearing into the briny due to techtonic disaster? or is it because of your taste in music?

There is no threatof armaggedon in Alta Loma.

Taste in music says absolutely nothing about a person. I think it would be better if you dropped the stereotyping of people based on their musical preferences that you seem to do a lot.

Yeah right.

Oh my, I've been infected with Fyron's virus!

God, I hope I am not going where angels fear to tread.

Fyron, you may be missing the point.

It was suggested that "you do come across as an angry young man with an axe to grind."

Whether it is actually true or not, to this person (and possibly others), you may be be giving this impression.

To reject it with "Thats about as far from the truth as you can get. ", does not dismiss the feelings people have about the issue.

Assuming the statement "you do come across as an angry young man with an axe to grind." is an open and honest statement of what the person is feeling/thinking, a more appropriate response for a person who is genuinely searching for the truth is to ask, "What am I doing to give this impression."

It reminds me of a very bad joke played on immigrants who cannot speak English.

The jokester tells the immigrant that if he wants to be liked, he should respond to any question with "You are an *******."

Later, when the immigrant does say this to someone, the recipient of this statement can say "You are being very rude."

The immigrant could say, "That is not true."

And from the immigrants perspective, it certainly is not true.

But true or not, the immigrant is still doing something which gives the impression that he is being rude.

I was a short haired slayer music fan.

And I would disagree on the statement that music says nothing about a person.

I take music very personally.

As you well know...

Music is a personal experience that we share and enjoy.

We relate to music. We also have songs that we treat as gateways to the past.
Like a smell or a great moment in our lives.

I will finish this later.

That future property wouldn't be located in an as-yet-to-be-named town of Otisburg, would it?

Trust me, I got the point.

I was referring to his stereotyping of people based on the music they listen to. Not everyone that listens to a type of music is the same as everyone else that listens to that music.

Taste in music says absolutely nothing about a person. I think it would be better if you dropped the stereotyping of people based on their musical preferences that you seem to do a lot.

Well that's exactly the kind of response I would expect from someone with your taste in music, Fyron.
