Yeah, I felt I should. I behaved poorly so the least I could do is apologize for it. I shouldn't leave someone else feeling bad for my behaviour after all and it's important to take responsibility for being a dick when I do act like a dick. Not something I'm always great at but I've been trying in the last year to get better about it and am still working at it. I noticed some time ago it was a bad habit of mine and I've hurt people I really care about in the past and hurt them quite deeply because of it and I don't want to keep repeating that with everyone, and especially don't want to continue my old behaviour of never really taking responsibility for it. It's a bad way to live and a bad way to interact with people. Even when it comes to people I absolutely hate (you not being one of them of course. )there's usually a better way to deal with things. smurf I ramble a lot. Long story short: often a dick and trying to stop being such a dick. I'll keep working at it and I appreciate your understanding and forgiveness here. It really means a lot.
Also, thanks for sending that message. With such heated exchanges like that, I do tend to get the feeling that most of Academia hates me. So it's nice to know that there are no hard feelings about things after that sort of encounter. Thanks.
It's all good man. Things can get heated in that forum and if people aren't in the best of moods to begin with, well, we both know first hand what can happen. No worries about anything you said. Like I think I've told you before after some heated arguments, I may not always agree with you, but overall you're a cool guy with great taste in games and I love chatting with you around the forum. I'd truly hate if I did anything that one day compromised that. Even when we heatedly disagree it's a good thing. It's never good to just rest on ones laurels intellectually and it's always nice to have people willing to challenge your attitudes and positions. I just need to do a better job of reminding myself of that sometimes.
Your post did explain a lot a lot more clearly, and I'm typing up a response to it now. I also have a massive headache (new set of glasses that I'm getting used to), so I'm not sure that my behavior has been ideal either, and I apologize for any negativity I may have generated.
Hey man, sorry for anything I said that came off as rude or hurtful today. It's not an excuse but bad day mental health wise lead to some frustrations boiling over in the thread. I'd rather have a good discussion than be passing angry posts and barbs back and forth and hopefully my last post shows that. No hard feelings on my end and I'll endeavour to be a bit clearer and more understanding from here on without letting emotional reactions get the better of me.
Sploosh.
Both actually. I started a thread about it in the art forum.
You're repairing a guitar for your friend? Or building one?
Thanks man. I'll take a look once I get a chance. Been busy trying to finish up my friends guitar, working, and spending time with the girlfriend the past week. I appreciate the info share though. Really do.
