    I was called out for something I had said earlier, and it made me realize that I was being troutty. I felt really terrible about it because I usually don't get called out a lot, so it was something I might have needed in a long time. Hopefully I come out a better person because of it.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    There was one time while I was making a drink for a customer that they changed their mind after I already poured their drink. They then asked if they could just have that one free since it was already made. I told them no. They proceeded to inform me not only that I was a terrible person, but that I was the reason for everything wrong in this world. Including people dying of hunger around the world. I was personally at fault for all of those deaths and anything else wrong in the world because I wouldn't give her a free drink.

    I don't know how anyone could say anything bad to/about me, but you're spot on in that Maleficent was terrible.

    Could be! Ever heard of Butterfly effect? Who knows on what dark path you set them by not giving them the drink free of charge!

    (SPOILER)backstory: my husband was already talking to another girl when he met me at our friends' wedding. Nothing serious, they had gone out a couple of times but that was it. She hadn't even kissed him yet. We talked on the phone for 6 hours one day then another 2 hours the next day, and then he told her about me. She kissed him and said "I will fight for you." Mind you, I didn't know about her yet...not that it mattered because he had already fallen pretty hard for me after the phone conversation and had already made his mind up that he wanted me, not her.

    We made plans to hang out with that second phone call, and that was also the first time we hugged...kissed...ended up going for a home run! We hit it off so well between that and the phone calls that we decided we were a couple, and the rest is history.


    So, on topic. I was talking to a co worker, swapping "How i met my significant other" stories. She informed me that I am a bad person because he left me for the girl he was already talking to when we met. Like, really, it's not my fault she didn't even kiss him until she found out he was interested in someone else -_-

    I didn't like Firefly.

    I don't need to tell you what the general reception to that was.

    The moral of the story is: don't impose your narrow experience onto others, and also listen to the perspective of others even if you think you disagree with what they have to say. Every opinion, no matter how "wrong" is important to understanding another person, and should be treated seriously if you can. Why did that person like Malificent? It appears that they connected to something in the movie that OP couldn't get to, something that spoke to their lived experience. Maybe they didn't express it the wrong way, but with the way OP is dismissing their arguments, it's no wonder that nothing was communicated!

    Listen. Learn. Your fellow human is a treasure trove of thoughts and ideas, even if they're hard to get to at first.

    I'm gonna turn thirty in a couple months. I'm just gonna get more preachy as time goes on.

    The irony here is that it was the other way around, I never actually had a chance to defend my view against her as she never gave me a chance to talk.

    Honestly, its a poorly written movie.

    I must be more worse than Adolf Hitler, because I have always felt like Maleficent was a extremely overated villian and was a total whiny puss, that got all upset because she wasn't invited to a baby's party.

    And yes, I do agree that the newer movie totally and completely woobies her and tries to make us have feels towards a whiny puss that got upset that she wasn't invited to a baby's birthday party.

    Maleficent reminds me of one of those children that throw a hissy fit at the supermarket because she didn't get what she desired.

    So what insults have you been called for absolutely silly things?

    P.S. I am also a terrible anime fan cause I don't hate dubs and sometimes think the dub is better than the original.
    How dare you not have exactly the same opinions as everyone else you meet!? That makes you worse than Hitler!

    Seriously, why can't more people understand different people have different tastes? Sometimes I get yelled at, insulted, or even banned from a venue because of a joke or a song. They don't seem to understand that my target audience likes the stuff they were offended by. Their thought must be, "Anyone who would like that is a horrible person."

    No. You don't like it. That's fine. Others do. That's fine too. I can't stand people who think a difference of opinion is something to get all pissy over.

    I empathise with your situation, Wolf. And, if you care to take my unsolicited advice, don't associate with that person anymore. They're just gonna get like this every time you disagree with them.

    It's okay, Wolfie. I didn't even see Malificent and I knew it wasn't good.

    Cim called me a turdblossom or a turdbucket last night. It's some new turd thing every night.

    Oh no, it's all cool, I'm not making this thread out of disgust, and I'm still good friends with her, I just find it funny when people overreact to silly things like taste in music or movies. I do it myself and I've compared liking certain things I despise to some historical atrocity just to prove that point but it's all in jest. I was just curious to know if other people do these amusing overreactions to things.

    All I do is make some jokes that make light of the Holocaust and everyone looks at me like I'm some kind of monster.

    ...Oh, this isn't about me?

    Yeah, I'm normally the one making the overexagerations to other people because it amuses me.

    Like those pretentious sub-only cock stains. (SPOILER)
