Oversensitive.
Oh my god, someone cares about a topic enough to do something that affected no one but Ares.
Holy crap, call the Message Board Police, someone cares about a topic! Someone didn't like a joke! Hurry and arrest him!
Come on people. Oversensative?

Oversensitive.
Just out of curiosity, what would one be allowed to be offended by at all without falling under your definition of oversensitive?

Mod had this to say about Jimmy Carter:
Just out of curiosity, what would one be allowed to be offended by at all without falling under your definition of oversensitive?
It's not just about being offended, it's about closing the dialogue completely with the offender without attempting to fully understand what they said or did that was so offensive.

Then why did you try to fuck him like a bitch, Mod?
Elaborate.
It screams overreactionary bullshit. Did you bother to ask her to explain in the thread it happened in, which I can't even find at the moment, because I am completely goddamn inept with the EC search function? Or did you just slap her on ignore and harbor a grudge until some silly little thread like this that actually airs some of this bullshit out in the open?
It happens like clockwork around here. As Chris Rock has said, 'That train is never late.'
I mean, Christ almighty, she was talking about banning some random foreigners from a little art community. It isn't like she called them the fucking warmongering Islamic jihadists that they are, is it?

Actually I did comment on it in the same thread and the way it came over was "We're trying to get all turks banned from X, because they're all stalkers" which is different from "We're trying to get a few guys from Turkey banned, because they are stalkers".
Sorry everyone for it coming out like that.

Okay Sean, who do you have on ignore and why? You seem more than happy to harrass Mod about his reasons, let's hear yours.
I've got.. Jackman, Somthor, and Beau that I can think of right off the top of my head. Our definitions of harassment must not share the same page of the dictionary. I'm calling out stupidity as I see it, and you will note I have never brought this subject up with Mod before, which rules out all three Dictionary.com definitions of the word.
Also, Mod: You made no constructive effort to clear up confusion about the comment. "That is pretty racist" is nothing but the limp-wristed passive aggressive bullshit we see all too commonly around here. You could learn something from those tactless fucking Turks and make a stand for yourself.
Edit: 'Stand' twice in one sentence OH THE HUMANITY Sean fucked around with this message on 06-28-2005 at 07:41 PM.

I didn't feel confusion at the time, that is why I just voiced my disapproval by saying that I find that comment racist and moved on, had she gone back and clicked the thread again the whole thing would most likely have been cleared up back then, since she happened to not read it it got cleared up at some random occasion a few months later, it's not like I've been hounding her with a pressure drill ever since in an effort to avenge the Turks who suffered at her cruel bloody hands.
None of them have ever entertained me. Even in their stupidity, I have not found humor. So I rid myself of their excess baggage and have continued on. It's the reason people like Kait aren't on ignore: they're funny to mock.

But you blame her. For making a comment you found offensive. In hindsight, sure, you could have gone on a lengthy tirade about the evils of some teenage Canadian artist who made an offhand comment about some dirty fucking Arabs, and she never would have seen it to respond, but you didn't. You had an opportunity to meet someone halfway to resolve a conflict and instead chose to leave a cowardly little quip and wander off.

What's the point in discussing the issue? Is there some inherent goodness in understanding racist morons? Even if it's an accident, where in his contract with the universe does it say he has to help random idiots on the internet discover and correct their mistakes?

I don't see the point of wandering around harboring a grudge that hasn't even been let out in the open to fester for a bit. It's about as pointless as a second dick.
Maybe it's just me, but I try to resolve some of my problems from time to time.

What exactly do you expect of me? To go out every time someone makes what appears to be a definite statement I disapprove of and ask them if they really mean it? To instantly detonate into a five page essay every time something offends me? She said something that came over as pretty bad, I commented on it, she didn't reply I left it at that.

No, I expect you to continue doing what you've done in the past and present, and to also completely ignore anything at all that's been said here, because changing someone's mind over the intarweb is a Herculean effort in futility.

Harboring a grudge isn't the only alternative to "working things out," though. What's wrong with just ignoring such a moron, then never giving them a second thought? It's not like they deserve any special consideration.
